Özet
Purpose: The purpose of the study was to compare the effect of two taping techniques and manual therapy, applied in additionto the conventional physiotherapy program, on pain and function in patient with subacromial impingement syndrome.Methods: A total of 55 patients participated in this study. Patients were divided into four groups; Kinesio taping group,McConnell taping group, manual therapy group, and control group. Conventional physiotherapy (5 days a week for four weeks)was applied to the patients in all groups. The level of pain was assessed by the Visual Analogue Scale, and the functional activitylevel was assessed by the Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder, and Hand-DASH Questionnaire. The patients were assessed beforetreatment and after treatment.Results: There was a significant difference in terms of pain severity and functional activity levels after treatment when comparedto the pre-treatment period in all groups (p<0.05). When the treatment groups were compared with the control group, asignificant difference was observed in terms of pain severity and functional activity levels after treatment when compared to thepre-treatment period (p<0.05). However, when the treatment groups were compared with each other, it was observed that therewas no difference in terms of changes in pain severity and functional activity levels after treatment when compared to the pretreatment period (p>0.05).Conclusions: There was a significantly greater decrease in pain intensity after all three applications than the control group. Itwas observed that they did not have significant superiorities over one another in terms of pain and functionality parameters.
