Tecar therapy vs Kinesiotape which of the two therapies is more effective in the first phase of the treatment epicondylitis.

Abstract:

In my work I'm going to evaluate which of the two therapies between Kinesiotape and Tecar therapy will be most effective in treating epicondylitis. The lateral epicondylitis, better known as "tennis elbow", is a very common orthopedic disorder, most common in people aged between 40 and 50 years, who practice sports or manual work. It is characterized by a process of degeneration charged to the group of the extensor tendons of the wrist and fingers near their origin at the lateral epicondyle of the humerus.
