Summary

This study aims to compare the acute effects of different kinesiology tapes on pain, functional performance and trunk endurance in young adults with chronic low back pain. Seventy young adults with chronic low back pain between the ages of 18-40 were included in our study. The individuals included in our study were divided into two groups by a simple randomization method. Star-shaped kinesiology taping was applied to the 1st group, and I-shaped kinesiology taping was applied to the 2nd group. The demographic and physical characteristics of the individuals who agreed to participate in the study were recorded. Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) to evaluate pain before taping, immediately after taping and 4 days after taping, Oswestry low back pain disability scale (OLBPDS) to assess disability level, Lumbar Flexion Repeat Speed Test, Sit-and-Stand Test to evaluate functional performance in both groups. Biering Sorenson Test was applied to evaluate the forward bending test with weight and trunk endurance.
