Abstract Background: This study examined the response of kinesio taping (KT) in combination with the IFT and home based exercises as compared to IFT and homebased exercises alone on motion, pain with functional performance and subsequent quality of life in subjects having shoulder impingement syndrome,
Methods: An experimental study design, 60 subjects with shoulder impingement syndrome were randomized 30 subjects each into two groups- Control( Group A), and K.T Group (Group B) respectively. Group A received Kinesiotaping with IFT and home based exercises. Group B received only IFT and home based exercises. The duration of intervention was two weeks. Outcome measures such as Visual Analogue Scale, Disability of shoulder arm and hand, Shoulder ROM were measured before, at the end of 2nd week post treatment.
Results: Comparison of post intervention means at 2nd week of treatment there is a statistically significant (p<0.05) difference in improvement in outcome measures between both groups. K.T Group subjects showed greater percentage of improvement than Control Group.

Conclusion: The present study concludes that kinesiotaping along with IFT and home based exercises is more effective in improving pain, functional disability and flexibility than IFT and home based exercises for subjects with Shoulder Impingement syndrome.
