چکیده

In order to examine the effects of Kinesio Tape on blood pressure and circulation, pressures were recorded after 70 minutes in the supine and resting position. Then the tape was applied to the lower thigh, and pressures were recorded after 70 minutes and the results were compared. In addition, they were compared with the 20-minute exercise at 30% exercise strength using a bicycle ergometer, before and after application of Kinesio Tape. The application of Kinesio Tape to the lower thigh showed no significant change in local peripheral circulation compared with the un-taped supine resting condition, but it was found that local peripheral circulation at the site of attachment of Kinesio Tape to the lower thigh could be enhanced by combining with low-strength exercise.
