Objective: In order to study the effect of Taping Therapy for Increasing the weight loading on Affected Leg of Hemiparesis, a clinical study was performed. Method: Tapes were applied on gluteus medius and quadriceps femoris muscle. Weight loading on the Affected Leg of Hemiparesis was measured by two digital scales at before and after, after 30 minites, after 1 hour of treatment. From each score of two scales, we calculate the percentage of Weight loading on the Affected Leg of hemiparesis. Result: (1)Case 1: Only the percentage of Weight loading measured after treatment is effectively increased(from $47.38{\pm}0.99$ to $46.36{\pm}1.2$(p<0.05)) (2)Case 2: The percentage of Weight loading measured both after treatment and after 30 minute is effectively increased(the one is increased from $10.75{\pm}0.476$ to $12.04{\pm}1.717$ and the other is increased from $10.75{\pm}0.476$ to $15.09{\pm}2.454(p<0.05)$) (3)Case 3: The percentage of Weight loading measured at all times is effectively increased. (the one after treatment is increased from $31.59{\pm}0.606$ to $29.55{\pm}2.296$. the one after 30 minutes. is increased from $31.59{\pm}0.606$ to $45.40{\pm}0.86$, from the one after 1 hour is increased from $31.59{\pm}0.606$ to $52.70{\pm}0.541$(p<0.05)) Conclusion: (1)The percentage of Weight loading measured after treatment is effectively increased (2)The percentage of Weight loading measured after 30 minutes and 1 hour is effectively increased, so it means Taping Therapy is continueously effective. (3)The percentage of Weight loading is especialy increased when the Percentage of weight loading is near 30%

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of taping therapy on activities of daily livings (ADL), hand function and range of motion in poststroke-hemiplegic patients. Sample were selected from 20 poststroke-hemiplegic patients at public health center in the period from September 5 to November 21, 2001. The research design was one group pretest-posttest design. The hemiplegia period of the participants was from one year to five years. The pretest and posttest included measuring activity of daily livings(ADL), instrumental activity of daily livings(IADL), hand function, range of motion, quality of life. In this research design, a treatment were to expose taping therapy who were received self-help management program. This self-help management program was composed of five sessions and each session had health education on stroke, diet, risk factor, ROM exercise and recreation. 20 patients were treated with kinesio taping(Nippon Sigmax Co., Ltd., Benefact(r), width 50mm). Tapes were applied to the Deltoid, Supraspinatus, Infraspinatus, Brachioradialis with paralyzed upper extremity. The taping therapy was performed once a week for 5 weeks. SPSS Win 8.0 was used for the data analysis. The results of this study were as follows: 1) The score of BADL was increased from 30.5 to 33.95 after program, and that was statistically significant(p=.019). 2) The score of IADL was increased from 11.6 to 12.75 after program, but that was statistically insignificant(p=.161). 3) The score of hand function was increased from 17 to 20.35 after program, and that was statistically significant(p=.026). 4) The shoulder's ROM(p=.000) and wrist's ROM(p= .004) were significantly increased. According to the results of this study, taping therapy is effective for improving ADL, hand function, ROM, quality of life. However, this study found no significant differences in IADL. Consequently, these findings showed that the taping therapy was effective in improvement of physical aspects(BADL, hand function, upper extremity's ROM) in poststroke-hemiplegic patients.

The objective of research was to explore the effects of Kinesic taping treatment on Kayaker's athletic performance and muscle fatigue variable. In order to accomplish such study objective, this study employed 8 ordinary university students and 8 university kayaker's as study subjects. The athletic performance records and blood lactate were analyzed before and after Kinesic taping treatment (KTT). Kinesic taping treatment was applied to the regions of agonist such as vastus medialis muscle, Latissimus dorsi muscle, Trapezius muscle, Biceps brachii muscle, and Triceps brachii muscle, which are major muscles for Kayaker's. Records for rest heart rate, athletic performance and blood lactate were measured upon 200m and 500m distance exercise using kayak ergometer. Data were analyzed by SPSS 19.0 using paired t-test and one-way repeated ANOVA at significant level of a = .05. First, performance records of 200m paddling kayak showed that the ordinary university students had a mean score of 60.13 second before and 58.75 second after kinesic taping treatment. University kayakers had a mean score of 58.75 second before and 53.0 second after kinesic taping treatment. Both groups had significant differences between before and after KTT in the athletic performance. In addition, levels of blood lactate showed that the ordinary university students had a mean score of 5.89mM before and 8.90mM after KTT and university kayaker's had a mean score of 5.79mM before and 8.48mM after KTT. The ANOVA showed that the level of ordinary university students' blood lactate was significantly higher than university kayakers only after KTT. Second, performance records of 500m paddling kayak showed that the ordinary university students had a mean score of 2.90 minute before and 2.77 minute after KTT and university kayaker's had a mean score of 2.30 minute before and 2.20 minute after KTT. Both groups had significant differences between before and after KTT in the athletic performance. Moreover, only university kayaker's had a significantly higher performance record than the counterpart. Levels of blood lactate showed that the ordinary university students had a mean score of 7.71mM before and 8.85mM after KTT and university kayakers had a mean score of 8.09mM before and 8.45mM after KTT. However, such a level of increase had no significant difference between the groups

This study was executed in order utilized five typical taping therapy spending on upper limb end part, and to grasp an influence on shoulder pain of upper limb part among spiral balance taping therapy of Danaca. This study was performed at Physical therapy Dept. of Gyeongbuk H orthopedics until 2005 November 4 from 2005 October 4th. This study appealed for a shoulder pain, and visited all 25(15 Non capsular lesions, 10 capsular lesions) patients to the objects. We executed study to the objects to a patient to agree with us after explaining a purpose and object of this study. Urged warning, and all executed eight times over about the patient who executed taping therapy for five weeks so as not to be able to get other therapy treatment. Application way of taping therapy applied all once at random generally five taping therapy to apply to limbs end of upper at clinical so far. Operated on the results about pain decrease, and we calculated as compared before and after five taping therapy. Also, operated again on them in a taping therapy judged that there was pain decrease, and we returned them to home. We make a comparative analysis for a pain after and before a treatment as we use the VAS which is evaluation of a pain in this study. The results of this study are as follows. Appeared so as operated, and a pain decrease change of Non capsular lesions became lower with a the average of 2.3 after a taping therapy in the average of 6.4s former a treatment, and to note statistically later Taping therapy of upper limb end part.(P<0.01). The pain decrease change of capsular lesions of a shoulder joint pain index decreased with the average of 4.0 after a taping therapy treatment in the average of 6.0 former a treatment after Taping therapy of upper limb end part, but were not able to note statistically.(P>0.05) Taping therapy of upper limb end part is positive to pain decrease of shoulder joint in the above-mentioned study can affect, and can especially get the effective conclusion that was able to affect from pain decrease of Non capsular lesions.
