Background: The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of corrective exercises and kinesio taping on the improvement of forward head improvement in female students.Methods: In this randomized quasi-experimental study, 30 girl students aged 7 to 13 years with forward head were randomly divided into two equal groups of exercises and kinesio taping. The refresher training group performed selective exercises for 6 weeks (three sessions per hour per week). The kinesio taping group obligated to use kinesio tape in the posterior part of the neck (along with the cervical vertebrae) for 6 weeks. The improvement of forward head was compared between the two groups.Findings: 6 weeks after intervention, the improvement of forward head in corrective exercises and kinesio taping groups was 13.5% and 34.5%, respectively, and the difference between the two groups was statistically significant (P = 0.001). There was a significant difference between the effects of correction exercises and the use of kinesio tape on forward head improvement in favor of the kinesio taping group.Conclusion: The results show that both the correction exercises and the use of kinesio tape can reduce the angle of head forward. However, kinesio taping has a greater effect on forward head reduction. Therefore, kinesio taping and corrective exercises can be used to improve forward head.
