Arm 2
Arm Type
Experimental
Placebo Comparator
Arm Label
Kinesio tape, functional correction applying
Placebo Kinesio taping apply
Arm Description
The experimental group, trained by Certified Kinesio tape researcher will attache the kinesio tape. Attaching the kinesio tape by using functional correction techniques, apply tape from the front of the acromion process to the spinous process T10 on both sides, providing 50% of the tape's tension (Kase, 2003, Han JT et al) to create a scapular retraction.
Apply kinesio tape without tension.
Outcomes
Primary Outcome Measures
The pushing force (average of peak force) of both arms (pounds)
Maximum strength of pushing, measures by Evaltech machine
The pulling force (average of peak force) of both arms (pounds)
Maximum strength of pulling, measures by Evaltech machine
Time measurement tolerance (TMT) (seconds)
Time tolerance of overhead reaching, measures by Evaltech machine
Secondary Outcome Measures
Visual analog pain scale (VAS)
0-10 centimeters visual analog scale, higher score means higher pain and worse outcome
The distance from the posterior aspect of acromion to the bed (inches)
Measure in lying position by measurement tape

5. Study Description
Brief Summary
The objective of this research is to study the effect of kinesio tapes with functional correction technique in combination with exercise management to increase strength and decrease pain, in people with rounded shoulders. The study would be evaluated with the EvaltechTM machine, (functional capacity assessment).
Detailed Description
Participants
Age 25-50 years, male and female
People who have a shoulder condition. (By measuring in the supine position, distance from the posterior aspect of acromion to the bed> 1 inch on both sides)
People with moderate to severe neck and shoulder pain (VAS> 3)
People who have to use their arms for work Overall more than 3 hours per day
For attaching the tape, the researcher will prepare a replacement shirt in case the For the convenience of tape, the experimental group, trained by Certified Kinesio tape, attached the kinesio tape. Attaching the tape By using functional correction techniques, apply from the front of the acromion process to the spinous process T10 on both sides.
Measurements
The pressure of (average of peak force) of both arms (pounds)
The pulling force (average of peak force) of both arms (pounds)
Time of overhead endurance test (TMT) (seconds)
Visual analog scale (VAS)
The distance from the posterior aspect of acromion to the bed (inches)
process of measuring the evaluation 3 times
st after physical therapy treatment Before attaching the kinase tape
nd evaluation period was 48 hours apart before the next treatment.
rd evaluation period is 1 week apart.
