Effects of scapular taping on grip strength and hand function: a randomized controlled cross-over study

This study demonstrates the effect of scapular taping on enhancing fine grip strength and offers a potential approach to improving distal performance of the upper extremity. Further research involving diverse populations, and long-term follow-up is needed to validate these findings and determine their potential implications for clinical practice.
