NCT ID NCT07330115
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looks at whether combining kinesio tape with specific neck exercises can improve how well people with cervical radiculopathy sense their neck position, and whether it also reduces pain and improves function. Sixty adults aged 35-50 with chronic neck pain and nerve symptoms will be enrolled. The approach is non-invasive and focuses on retraining the neck's proprioception.
