Brief Summary: The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the effectiveness of Kinesio Taping in individuals with knee osteoarthritis KOA KOA is a common condition that can lead to pain stiffness and decreased mobility The main questions it aims to answer are

Does Kinesio Taping reduce pain in individuals with KOA
Can Kinesio Taping improve the range of motion and functional performance in those suffering from KOA

Participants will be asked to

Attend assessment sessions at the outpatient Physical Therapy clinic at Taibah University

Undergo Kinesio Taping three times over 12 days Complete specific physical tests and questionnaires before and after the intervention period to measure their pain and mobility

Researchers will compare the group that receives Kinesio Taping with the group that receives sham placebo taping to see if there are significant differences in pain reduction and improvements in movement and daily function
Detailed Description: Study Overview

This clinical trial explores Kinesio Tapings KT effect on knee osteoarthritis KOA in adults It delves into whether KT can alleviate pain and improve joint movement and daily functioning The research hosted at Taibah Universitys Physical Therapy clinic focuses on practical benefits for patients with KOA a condition that leads to significant discomfort and mobility issues especially prevalent in Saudi Arabia

Study Design

In a randomized and single-blinded approach participants are divided into two groups One group receives actual Kinesio taping while the other undergoes a sham procedure with neither group aware of their specific treatment type to ensure unbiased results

Intervention Procedures

Participants undergo three Kinesio taping sessions spread over 12 days The taping technique is performed according to prescribed methods that target the quadriceps femoris muscle believed to influence pain perception and joint function positively

The study employs a before-and-after intervention assessment model Initial data collection includes patients demographic details and baseline characteristics related to their health status and disease severity Following the intervention the same measures are reassessed to evaluate any changes attributed to the KT
