Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Muscle fatigue affects adversely the athletes´ performance and it is therefore one of the most investigated topics currently. However we do not know accurately the mechanisms that produce it.

The aim of this study is to determine the influence of the Kinesio taping (KT) application in the paravertebral muscle fatigue in a sample of healthy young subjects.

Sham tape

Group Type PLACEBO_COMPARATOR

Placebo

Intervention Type OTHER

The placebo taping consisted of two 10 cm length strips of the same material, adhered transversely to the skin of the paravertebral muscles fibers

Kinesio Tape

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL
