The purpose of this study was to investigate the changes of muscle tone, muscle stiffness and grip strength according to taping application method. The subjects of this study were 30 normal adult subjects and measured the variables by non stretched taping and stretched taping. Muscle tone and stiffness were measured using Myoton pro equipment and grip strength was measured using a dynamometer. In the same position, subjects were measured three times. And the average value of three times was used. For the comparison of muscle tone, muscle stiffness and grip strength according to taping application, we used paired t test. An independent test was conducted to examine differences between groups before and after intervention. The results of this study showed that both the non-stretched taping and stretched taping applications showed statistically significant decreasing in muscle tone and muscle stiffness in both groups, and the grip strength was statistically significant increasing in both groups. There was no significant difference between the groups in terms of muscle tone, muscle stiffness, and grip strength before intervention. In after the intervention, there was no statistically significant difference between the groups in muscle tone and muscle stiffness. But there was a statistically significant difference between the two groups in grip strength. And the stretched taping group showed higher values. Because there are differences in muscle tone, muscle stiffness, and grip strength according to taping application method, the effect of muscle can be expected if taping method is applied well.
