INTRODUCTION: In an era of ubiquitous computing, a considerable part of the population, regardless of age group, spend more time in a sitting position. Long-term, static loading of the spine increases muscle tension, leading to the occurrence of @entity158 . Physiotherapy is recommended as primary and secondary prevention of @entity158 . The Kinesiology Taping Method is one of the many special methods of physiotherapy which is used during the episodes of @entity615 in the lumbosacral region. This method consists in sticking on a special tape, which is made of stretch @entity2708 similar to @entity1 skin, using a variety of techniques for patch application. The present study evaluated the effect of the application of the Kinesiology Taping technique for muscle mobility in the lumbar spine and the subjective perception of @entity158 intensity. MATERIAL AND METHODS: The study group consisted of 100 @entity1 (89 @entity1 and 11 @entity1 ) who experienced @entity158 in the lumbar spine. To assess the mobility of the lumbar spine the Schober test was used. The subjective sensation of @entity158 was assessed using the VAS (visual analogue scale). Measurements were taken four times: before gluing applications, immediately after taping, 7 days after application of the patch, and immediately after its removal. RESULTS: In response to the use of therapy, an increase of mobility of the lumbar spine in flexion front and back, and reduced @entity158 was shown. CONCLUSIONS: Application of the muscle kinesiology taping technique is an effective method in reducing @entity158 and increasing mobility of the lumbar spine.
