Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
The literature presents several studies with short-term effects, largely in healthy individuals and with several application techniques, with the incremental tensioning of the proposed tape subjectively.

Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
tensioned tape
The tensioned tape group will apply weekly with gradual tension calculated by measuring the initial length of the tape. From the first week of application, there will be a 5% increase in tension up to the fifth week.
Tape with tension
The elastic bandage will be applied with a voltage increase controlled weekly, for five weeks. Each week, 5% of tension will be added to the application. In the first week the application will be tension-free.
tape without tension
The tensionless tape group will receive the application of the tape weekly without tensioning during the five weeks.
Tape without tension
Bandaging applications will be weekly, for five weeks, without tensioning the tape.
