This study determined the therapeutic effects of kinetic acupuncture (KA) combined with balance taping in the treatment of musculoskeletal disorders (MSD).The incidence of chronic MSD conditions is an increasing health concern on a global scale. This study adapted the methodology of Senna-Fernandes V, MD. His thesis is based on the concept of Kinetic Acupuncture (KA), combined with physiotherapy as a systematic treatment of 205 cases of musculoskeletal disorders". KA is a multidisciplinary therapy. Its application are divided in 3 phases: Pre-Kinetic phase, acupuncture needling and balance taping medicine are applied to systemic, microsystemic or locomotor points to prepare soft tissue structures for physiotherapy by interrupting the pain-spasm-pain cycle and promoting the local blood circulation; Kinetic phase, physiotherapy is used during the stimulation of relevant acupoints to promote a synergistic effect and restore functional mobility and Post-Kinetic phase, biochips (bio stones) are taped over specific ear acupoints, determined by probing sites on the ear for tenderness.
