Effects of taping therapy for carpal space expansion on electrophysiological change in patients with carpal tunnel syndrome
Taping therapy is one of the most conservative treatments for carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS). Preceding research studied on pain control, grip strength, and wrist function but no studies have been reported on electrophysiolgical changes after taping therapy. The aim of this study is to evaluate the ef...
