Summary

This trial tests whether kinesiotape or foam roller exercises better ease chronic low back pain. Adults aged 18-60 with this condition will be assigned to one of the two approaches. Researchers will measure changes in pain sensitivity, sleep quality, flexibility, and disability. The goal is to see which method offers more relief and improves daily life.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
kinesiotape application and foam roller exercises
What this could lead to
If effective, these simple, drug-free approaches could offer practical ways to reduce pain and improve daily function in people with chronic low back pain.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-stage trial, so results may not apply to everyone. Kinesiotape can cause skin irritation or allergic reactions in some people.
