Abstract
Purpose: The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of home exercise program (HEP) and kinesio taping (KT) on pain and quality of life in patients with hyper kyphosis. Methods: A total of 28 sedentary volunteers participated in the study. Participants were randomly assigned to HEP+KT (n=14) and HEP (n=14) groups. Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) was used to evaluate the back pain intensity and Scoliosis Research Society Outcomes Questionnaire (SRS-22) was used to assess the quality of life at the beginning and end of the study. Results: There was no significant difference in body mass index (BMI), mean age and kyphosis angle between groups before the treatment (p>0.05). No significant difference was found in the VAS and SRS-22 values between HEP+KT and HEP groups (p>0.05). There were significant improvement in VAS score and pain and body image parameters of the SRS-22 after the treatment in the HEP+KT group (p<0.05). In the HEP group, there were significant differences in the VAS score and in the pain parameter of the SRS-22 after the treatment (p<0.05). Conclusion: In our study, we found that exercise program reduced pain but KT which was applied with exercise program had no contribution to pain and quality of life except body image. In conclusion, it was thought that exercise training is necessary in treatment of hyper kyphosis and further study with long-term follow-up is needed to clarify the effect of KT on pain and quality of life....  Show more  Show less
