Background: Changing life style and decreasing activity among office employees and people who had regular jobs and had un-appropriated cervical situation cause fatigue in cervical muscles and put them in danger reagent.
KINESIOTAPING is an athletic, medical and rehabilitation method that claims for decrease pain, inflation, muscle spasm and preventing athletic damages during upper stationary activities, therefore, this method also use for pain deduction and preventing cervical accidents.
Methods: In this research, we study scientific review of KINESIOTAPE (KT) influence on cervical fatigue as a point for initial muscle damage. For this purpose, we study EMG signals for cervical muscles during specific stationary activity in two particular groups, including the one that actually use KT and the reference group.
Results: Review and compare EMG signal mean frequency as an evaluation index for muscle fatigue and comparing the arrival time to fatigue in both groups are intended. Also for studying the immediate effects of KT in group that did not use them, we apply KT after reaching to fatigue and survey the differences in mean frequency.
Conclusion: With using muscle fatigue measurement the results are evidently shown the useful effect of KT; as in most of KINESIO tape users, muscle fatigue decrease. |
