摘要

The Kinesiotaping method is a relatively new taping technique for sports. It was based upon the body's own natural healing process to improve tissue healing and interstitial fluid drainage. Because this taping technique has recently been developed by Dr. Kase, there would appear only limited scientific information or evidence available within the literature dealing with the sports injuries. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to investigate volume changes in the lower extremities of individuals following the application of kinesiotape, for individuals either featuring or not featuring muscle-contraction ability. The study had two groups; one group was composed of subjects suffering from spinal-cord injury, and the other was composed of 12 healthy subjects. The waterdisplacement volumes of the lower extremities were measured immediately prior to and subsequent to applying the Kinesiotapes; measurements being taken immediately, 24 hours, 48 hours, and removed the taping for the lower extremities. The results revealed that the spinal cord injuries group had no significant change for each measurements of the lower extremities (p＞.05). For the normal subjects group, a significant difference in leg volume was noted: 48 hours following the application of kinesiotape and removed the tape (p＜.05). The results suggest that the kinesiotaping for dealing with interstitial fluid drainage is effective in decreasing leg volume for normal subjects. This technique is easy to apply and long-lasting in the clinical usage.
