Brief Summary

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

Low back pain is a common problem. In low back pain, the core region and posture are frequently affected. However, no definitive decision has been reached regarding cognition and mental fatigue. In the treatment of low back pain, exercise and kinesio taping approaches are frequently used. The aim of this study is to evaluate the effects of kinesio taping applied in addition to pilates exercises on pain, core muscle thickness, strength and endurance, posture, cognition and mental fatigue in individuals with non-specific low back pain and to compare it with placebo taping and the control group. The primary outcome measure of this study is core muscle thickness, while other measurements will be considered as secondary outcomes.

Study Groups

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

Kinesio Tape and Pilates Group

Kinesio taping will be applied to this group in addition to the Pilates exercise protocol.

Group Type ACTIVE_COMPARATOR

Kinesio Tape

Intervention Type OTHER

Kinesio tape is a non-invasive therapeutic approach that does not involve any medication. It is often used to support tissue and reduce pain.

Pilates

Intervention Type OTHER

Pilates exercises are mind-body exercises that are performed on a mat or with special equipment and focus on strength, core stability, flexibility, muscle control, posture and breathing. Pilates exercises are frequently used to develop elements such as core stability, muscle flexibility and strength, physical fitness and body awareness.

Placebo Tape and Pilates Group

Flaster taping will be applied to this group in addition to the Pilates exercise protocol.

Group Type PLACEBO_COMPARATOR

Pilates

Intervention Type OTHER

Pilates exercises are mind-body exercises that are performed on a mat or with special equipment and focus on strength, core stability, flexibility, muscle control, posture and breathing. Pilates exercises are frequently used to develop elements such as core stability, muscle flexibility and strength, physical fitness and body awareness.

Placebo

Intervention Type OTHER

Placebo taping will be applied in the same way as kinesio taping, but with plaster tape.

Pilates Group

Only the Pilates exercise protocol will be applied to this group.
