Summary

Low back pain is the leading cause of disability worldwide, the prevalence of low back pain can be as high as 43%. Past research has shown the positive effects of Kinesio taping in patients with chronic and nonspecific low back pain in pain reduction, improvement in postural stability, and improvement in function. However, no study has yet evaluated the effects of KT in persons with discogenic LBP. If found to be effective KT can be prescribed as a conservative \& cost-effective treatment for patients with discogenic low back pain.
