Musculoskeletal Pain Clinical Trial
Official title:
The Effectiveness of Kinesio Taping on Playing-related Pain, Function and Muscle Strength in Violin Players: A Randomized Controlled Clinical Trial
This study aimed to investigate the effectiveness of Kinesio taping (KT) on playing-related pain, upper extremity and hand function, grip and pinch strength in violin players. One hundred seventeen participants who were professional violinists for at least two years were randomized to receive either therapeutic tape application (KT group), a sham tape application (placebo group) or no application (control group) for one week. The primary outcome was the Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder and Hand (DASH) in one week. The secondary outcomes were the Visual Analogue Scale (VAS), the Purdue Pegboard Test, grip and pinch strength. Outcome measures were performed at baseline, immediately after the intervention, and one week later (follow-up). Participants were asked to play the "Violin Concerto No.2, Op.35", and pre-and post-performance pain and grip and pinch strength were assessed.
Kinesio tape (KT), an alternative taping technique, is a method consisting of a tape with elastic properties and stretching capabilities used to treat pain or prevent injuries in conjunction with exercise.It has been concluded that KT intervention might not be helpful to reduce dystonic patterns or improve playing ability in musicians with focal hand dystonia. However, there is no enough study to conclude the effectiveness of KT application in Playing-related musculoskeletal disorders. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate the effect of KT on playing-related pain, upper extremity and hand function, grip and pinch strength in violin players compared to placebo KT application and control. As a secondary outcome, the investigators explored whether the pre-and post-performance effect of the KT on playing-related pain and grip and pinch strength. ;
