Abstract
BACKGROUND: There is a relationship between shoulder impingement syndrome and scapular dyskinesia. In which the biceps and sub acromial bursa gets impinged by the acromion process. There is a strong relation in correcting the scapular dyskinesia for shoulder impingement syndrome. OBJECTIVE : To compare kinesiology taping and rigid taping with exercises in correcting the shoulder impingement syndrome. STUDY DESIGN : experimental design. SUBJECTS : 30 male cricketers Group-A subjects were given kinesiology taping with exercises and Group-B were given rigid taping with exercises, both the groups received therapy for four weeks and were asked to come for three days in a week. OUTCOME MEASURES : Numerical pain rating scale (NRS), Functional throwing performance index (FTPI). RESULTS : Among Group-A there is a significant difference in post test results of all outcome measure compared to the Group-B, that is with Numerical Rating Scale (NRS) and Functional Throwing Performance index (FTPI). CONCLUSION : kinesiology taping shows very good effect in managing and treating shoulder impingement syndrome. From this study, it is found that Kinesiology taping with exercises techniques reduce the scapular internal rotation in patients suffering from Shoulder impingement syndrome. This effect corresponds with a reduction in the intensity of pain experienced by patients. The kinesiology taping technique positions the scapula more posteriorly and increase scapular retraction in scapular plane movements; however these alterations to kinematics did have a corresponding effect on the pain and improving functional ability of the shoulder during throwing. This study concluded that Kinesiology taping with exercises have reduced the pain and it improves the overall functional ability of the shoulder complex. The primary goal of rehabilitation is to return the player to his sport as quickly as possible. This technique definitely will help them for a faster and better recovery.
