Brief Summary
Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.
At the beginning, at the 2nd week and at the 1st month, activity and rest pain with visual analog scale, cervical lateral flexion and rotation with goniometer, neck disability scale and trapezius thickness, trigger point volume, trigger point diameter, trigger point area (with ultrasonograpic imaging) will be evaluated.
After the initial evaluation of the patients in the kinesiotaping group, 'I' strip kinesiotape will be applied with the space correction technique for the upper trapezius muscle, for a total of 4 sessions, 2 days a week, and the patients will be included in the 1-month home exercise program. Patients will be evaluated at the start of treatment, Week 2, and Month.
Patients in the control group will only be included in the 1-month home exercise program. Patients will be evaluated at the start of treatment, Week 2, and Month 1.
