ABSTRACTEfficacy of K-Tape in Chronic Mechanical Low Back Pain. Randomized Control Trial. A total of 30 patients were included as per pre define inclusion and exclusion criteria and randomly assigned into two groups, consisting of 15 patients in each group. Group A was given K-Tape along with standardized exercise program. Group B was given standardized exercise program along with moist hot pack for 4 weeks, 3 sessions per week one session per day. The patient’s outcome measures were assessed by visual analog scale, ODI and Goniometry for Lumbar Range of Motion. Measurements were recorded before and after the end of the treatment period.  Results revealed that means and S.D of both group were significant (p=0.000 ) statically but clinically the Group of patients treated with K-Tape along with standardized exercise program managed pain (pre=7.50±1.21,post=0.71±0.37),ODI(pre=41±18.16,post= 8±4.49) and range of motion (flexion pre=31±5.04,post=50±10.12,extension pre=17±2.13,post=29±4.20 Rt side flexion pre=10±2.55,post=22±4.75 and Lt. side flexion pre=10±2.35, post=22±4.63, Rt side  rotation pre= 8±1.27,post=19±2.65) Lt. side rotation pre=8±2.15, post=18±2.46 better than group of patients treated with standardized exercise program along with Moist hot pack in terms of pain (pre=7.81±1.16,post=2.35±1.27), ODI (pre=44±21.32,post=22±10.6) and range of motion (flexion pre=25±5.65,post=37±10.16, extension pre=15±2.55,post=21±5.32, Rt side flexion pre=10±2.35 post=15±2.28, Lt Side flexion pre=11±2.35, post=19±2.36, Rt side rotation pre=9±1.90 post=16.±2.71, Lt Side rotation pre=8±1.63, post=15±3.15. The result of study suggests that both K-Tape and exercises improves the symptoms of chronic low back pain. Better improvement was shown by K-Tape group when compared with exercise group. Based on these results K-Tape and Exercise should be the treatment of choice for chronic mechanical low back pain rather than Exercise with HP. Keywords: K-Tape, Chronic Low Back Pain, Moist hot
