Clinical Trial Summary

The Kinesio Taping (KT ) method was developed more than thirty years ago in order to cause sensory effects through the epidermis and dermis, generating a variety of physiological effects in other systems. Clinical effects are well known levels in muscle, neurological system, injuries, inflammation, edema, among other physiological effects are thus largely in the theoretical framework. Objectives: The aim of this study is to evaluate the Electromyographic (EMG), Electroencephalographic (EEG), muscle temperature and flexibility effects with the Rectus Femoral muscle KT application. Methods: This is a pilot study with six subjects in which they were divided into two groups, A and B. Group A received the application of KT from muscle Origin to Insertion and group B Insertion to Origin, with both groups taped the non-dominant limb and the dominant limb was used as control group. The first application was conducted at 0% and the second with 75 to 100% tension. Evaluations were performed before the first application, immediately and 24 hours later. After this last evaluation, was withdrawn taping, evaluated without taping, reapplied 75 to 100 % of rated voltage and in sequence. The sixth last review was conducted 24 hours after this last application. Before every application a specific vibration was performed on the patellar tendon in order to trigger a neurophysiological imbalance rectus femoral.
