Conventional physiotherapy methods were applied to all subjects for 15 sessions. In addition to the study group, Kinesio tape application was performed each session. Pain, pressure pain threshold, range of motion, muscle strength, muscle endurance, pectoralis minor muscle length, disability level, quality of life, and depressive symptoms were evaluated. The first evaluation was conducted prior to the Kinesio tape application, the second was conducted 24 hours after the procedure, and the third was after 15 sessions.Results: A significant improvement was obtained in depression scores, muscle endurance, and patient satisfaction in favor of the study group (respectively p = 0.021, p=0.029, p= 0.009).Conclusion: Kinesio tape can be used to increase muscle endurance in the short term. Also, it can be said that Kinesio tape application provides additional benefits to the conventional physiotherapy method in terms of treatment satisfaction.
