New study tests taping technique for scoliosis pain relief

This study looks at whether adding Kinesio Taping to Schroth therapy helps reduce back pain and improve daily function in young adults (ages 18-30) with mild idiopathic scoliosis. Participants will be split into three groups: one gets Schroth therapy plus real Kinesio Taping, one gets Schroth therapy alone, and one gets Schroth therapy with a sham (fake) tape. The treatment lasts 4 weeks, and pain and disability are measured at several points. The goal is to see if the tape provides extra benefit beyond exercise alone.
