Introduction: Different treatments are proposed to treating back pain, including the kinesio taping. Objective: To verify the use of kinesio taping for low back pain treatment. Methods: A systematic review was conducted, consulting the databases: PubMed, EMBASE, CINAHL, PEDro and ACP Journal Club. We used the descriptors: kinesiotaping, kinesio taping, kinesio tape or kinesiotape. We included clinical trials that focused on the use of kinesio taping in the treatment of low back pain. The Jadad score and the PEDro score were used to assess the methodological quality. Results: Three manuscripts were included in the review. By the PEDro score, two manuscripts were considered of high methodological quality, and one of these also by the Jadad score. Conclusions: Despite the quality of two studies, the results showed no effectiveness of kinesio taping in low back pain.Downloads
