Brief Summary:
This randomized controlled trial evaluated the effectiveness of kinesiotaping in addition to exercise for patients with knee osteoarthritis (gonarthrosis). Thirty-eight participants aged 45 to 65 were randomly assigned to two groups: one group performed a structured home exercise program three times weekly for 6 weeks, while the other group performed the same program and also received kinesiotaping once weekly. Outcomes included pain, stiffness, balance, and quality of life. Both groups demonstrated significant improvement; however, the kinesiotaping plus exercise group showed greater gains in pain reduction, mobility, and daily activities. These findings suggest that kinesiotaping combined with exercise may provide superior benefits compared with exercise alone in individuals with knee osteoarthritis.
