Abstract<br />
Objective<br />
This study analysis the effect of Medical Taping on patients with infantile and juvenile<br />
idiopathic scoliosis.<br />
Methods<br />
A literature research and a pilot study were used to analyse the effects of medical<br />
taping. In this study three subjects with infantile of juvenile idiopathic scoliosis were<br />
taped. The subjects were analysed by rasterstereographical measurement (Diers<br />
formetric 4D).<br />
Results<br />
The results of this study show that Medical Tape has an effect on scoliosis. This effect<br />
can both be positive and negative but seems difficult to handle. One of three subjects<br />
showed correction concerning the scoliosis whereas in the other two subjects the<br />
reference measurement, their posture without tape intervention, showed the best<br />
results.<br />
Conclusion<br />
This study shows that Medical Taping can be used in idiopathic scoliosis treatment. To<br />
give an purposeful evidence-based pratice treatment further research must be made.<br />
These studies should be focused on both the intermuscular procces in idiopathic<br />
scoliosis and the effect of Medical Tape on the skeletal muscles.<br />
