Do kinesio taping and/or postural correction
exercises have an effect on severity of pain, neck disability
cervical spine curvature, cervical muscles activation
amplitudes, and frequencies in patients with mechanical
neck dysfunction?

The purpose of this study was to determine the
effect of kinesio taping and postural correction
exercises on neck pain level, neck disability, cervical
spine curvature, cervical muscles activation
amplitudes and frequencies in patients with
mechanical neck dysfunction.

• There was no statistical significant effect of applyingkinesio taping on pain level, function level, cervicalspine curvature, cervical muscles activities in patientswith mechanical neck dysfunction.
•There was no statistical significant effect of postural correction exercises on pain level, function level, cervical spine curvature, and cervical muscles activities in patients with mechanical neck dysfunction.

Combination of kinesio taping and postural correction
exercises program has better effect than application of
each modality alone
