Back pain, and functional disabilities tend to show the common symptoms in scoliotic patients in addition to the cobb{u2019}s angle. Of this study was to examine the efficacy of kinesio taping as an adjunct to therapeutic exercises on patients with postural scoliosis. Thirty patients were assigned randomly in to 2 groups : patients in the group A (n = 15) received kinesio tape, stretching and strengthening exercises of the back, and patients in the group B (n = 15) received stretching and strengthening exercises of the back only. The following parameters including pain severity, functional disability and back range of motion (flexion, extension, right side bending and left side bending) and cobb angle were measured before and after 6 weeks of treatment. The results showed significant improvement of pain severity in group A compared with those at group B but not in functional disability, back range of motion and cobb angle. We concluded that kinesio taping is effective as a method of reducing pain in treatment for postural scoliosis
