This study was performed to assess the efficacy of Kinesiotape for the frozen shoulder patients. The subjects of this study were 17 patients with frozen shoulder who visited the out-patient department of the physical therapy, Pyongchon Sacret Heart Hospital, Hallim University, from July. 3, 2000 through August 12, 2000. To find out the effect of kinesiotape therapy, we sampled 8 patients treated with electrotherapy and therapeutic exercise (control group), and 9 patients treated with electrotherapy and therapeutic exercise with kinesiotape(experimental group). All patients were treated 3 days a week for 5 weeks. The results after 5-week treatment, compared with before treatment, were as follows: 1. The increase in range of motion in the electrotherapy and therapeutic exercise with kinesiotape after 5-week treatment was very significant(p<0.01). 2 The increase in range of motion in the electrotherapy and therapeutic exercise after 5-week treatment was significant (p<0.05). 3. The pain of decrease in the electrotherapy and therapeutic exercise with kinesiotape after 5-week treatment was very significant (p<0.01). 4. The pain of decrease in the electrotherapy and therapeutic exercise with kinesiotape 5-week treatment was significant(p<0.05). 5. The electrotherapy and therapeutic exercise with kinesiotape was more effective in increasing the range of motion on shoulder than the electrotherapy and therapeutic exercise after 5-week treatment(p<0.01). 6. The pain of decrease in between electrotherapy. therapeutic exercise with kinesiotape electrotherapy and therapeutic exercise after 5-week treatment was no significant.
