Kinesiotaping and neuromobilization techniques are classified as physiotherapy methods in other words, these are the methods used to treat a patient with the use of movement. Both kinesiotaping and neuromobilization can be used as a separate form of therapy or may be complementary to other methods of physical therapy. It is true to say that positive effects are likely to appear after the very first therapy sessions.

Introduction. Patellofemoral pain syndrome (PFPS) is a disorder of the front compartment of the knee joint with incompletely investigated, probably multifactorial pathogenesis. It mostly affects young people and runners. In patients with PFPS conservative management is a therapy of choice with fundamental importance of physiotherapeutic procedures. Therapy should be highly individualized and considering all possible factors that may cause PFPS symptoms. Aim. The aim of this report was presentation of management of a 23 year old female patient with PFPS that developed secondary to a knee sprain. The medical history, diagnostic and therapeutic procedures were thoroughly described, then obtained results were presented and thereafter discussed. Methods. Clinical assessment included functional and provocative tests of the patellofemoral joint as well as thigh and calf muscles tests, range of motion measurement of the knee joint and pain assessment using the VAS scale. Therapeutic management included 5 sessions of post-isometric muscle relaxation (PIR), mobilizations of the patella and applications of elastic tapes. Results. After 5 sessions of therapeutic management PFPS symptoms were significantly reduced. Pain did not occur during normal activity, whereas in heavy joint loading, it occurred later and was of lower intensity. Range of motion as well as subjective sense of joint stability was also improved. Conclusions. Individually adjusted conservative management based on PIR techniques, mobilizations of patella and kinesiotaping seems to be effective form of therapy for PFPS of functional nature

Introduction: Conservative treatment of urinary incontinence is intended to alleviate symptoms. Physiotherapeutic procedures may be effectively implemented in the treatment of urinary incontinence. Kinesiotaping is used as a complementary form of physiotherapeutic treatment. The available literature does not yet contain clear reports on the importance of the use of kinesiotaping to treat urinary incontinence. Material and methods: The study involved twenty women (mean age: 54.65 ± 2.97 years) who reported symptoms of urine leakage in situations involving abdominal pressure. The respondents were assessed using a questionnaire produced by the authors and ICIQ-LUTSqol. Kinesiotaping was applied to the rectus abdominis muscle and the subjects performed the single-legged standing test before and after kinesiotaping was applied. Results: The mean result of the ICIQ-LUTSqol questionnaire assessing how the quality of life across the entire study group was affected by the severity of lower urinary tract symptoms was 44.17 points ± 32.63 points. After kinesiotaping, the amount of urine leakage decreased (2.2 points ± 0.69 points vs. 1.7 points ± 0.65 points, p < 0,05). Conclusions: Kinesiotaping of the rectus abdominis muscle has little effect on the symptoms of urinary incontinence.

Wprowadzenie: Leczenie zachowawcze nietrzymania moczu nacelowane jest na łagodzenie objawów. Jako metodę uzupełniającą z powodzeniem wykorzystuje się procedury fizjoterapeutyczne, w tym kinesiotaping. Niemniej jednak brak jest doniesień na temat efektywności kinesiotapingu we wspomaganiu leczenia nietrzymania moczu. Celem pracy była ocena skuteczności kinesiotapingu mięśnia prostego brzucha w łagodzeniu objawów wysiłkowego nietrzymania moczu u kobiet. Materiał i metody: W badaniu wzięło udział 20 kobiet (średni wiek 54,65 roku ± 2,97 roku) zgłaszających objawy upuszczania moczu w sytuacjach angażujących tłocznię brzuszną. Do oceny badanych użyto autorskiego kwestionariusza ankietowego oraz kwestionariusza ICIQ-LUTSqol, oceniającego jakość życia w kontekście nasilenia objawów ze strony dolnych dróg moczowych. Aplikację kinesiotapingu stosowano na mięsień prosty brzucha. Ponadto badane wykonywały test stania jednonóż przed i po zastosowaniu kinesiotapingu. Wyniki: Średni wynik kwestionariusza ICIQ-LUTSqol w całej grupie badanej wynosił 44,17 pkt ± 32,63 pkt. Po zastosowaniu kinesiotapingu doszło do zmniejszenia ilości upuszczanego moczu (2,2 pkt ± 0,69 pkt vs. 1,7 pkt ± 0,65 pkt, p < 0,05). Wnioski: Kinesiotaping mięśnia prostego brzucha w niewielkim stopniu wpływa na objawy nietrzymania moczu.
