            "summary": "This study compared the short-term effects of kinesio taping (KT) and cold therapy (CT) on shoulder pain and arm function in people with rotator cuff tendonitis (RCT). Fifty-two participants were split into two groups and given either KT or CT, along with a standard home exercise program. After three days, the KT group showed improvements in pain, shoulder movement, arm function, and grip strength. The CT group only showed a decrease in pain at rest and at night. The results suggest that KT, when used with exercise, may be more effective than cold therapy for short-term relief and improving daily function in people with RCT.",
