Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Kinesio Taping on Abdominal Muscles

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Kinesio Taping

Intervention Type OTHER

The kinesio tape is adhesive and it does not contain drug substance. After the patients were randomized to the groups, kinesio tape will be applied to the relevant region.

Kinesio Taping on Back Muscles

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Kinesio Taping

Intervention Type OTHER

The kinesio tape is adhesive and it does not contain drug substance. After the patients were randomized to the groups, kinesio tape will be applied to the relevant region.
