Clinical Trial Summary

The purpose of this clinical trial is to compare the effectiveness of kinesio-taping versus self-mobilization applied to the cervical region of long-duration electronic device users.


Clinical Trial Description

There is increasing use of electronic devices among individuals due to technological advancement and increasing work demands. The prolong use of these devices may result to discomfort in the neck and impairments in cervical range of motion, proprioceptive sense, muscle activities, and disability among users of electronic devices. Kinesio-taping and self-mobilization in the cervical region may improve function, and reduce disability. Therefore the aim of this study is to compare the effectiveness of kinesio-taping against self-mobilization among long-duration electronic device users. Participants will be randomized into either a kinesio-taping or self-mobilization group. Treatment will be administered within a four-week period. Participants will be evaluated at baseline, post-intervention and at one-month follow-up. ;
