Placebo effect has been widely studied in musculoskeletal neck pain treatment. This effect derives from the therapeutic context and is common to all of them. Latest research suggests Kinesio Taping could be a kind of placebo effect. This clinical trial analizes if Kinesio Taping could be a kind of placebo effect in subjects with musculoskeletal neck pain. Kinesio Taping was compared with a placebo. After analyzing 30 subjects, the results show that Kinesio Taping clinical effects are similar to placebo. Expectations, conditioning, or suggestion could be very closely related to clinical effect in patients.

Palabras clave : Placebo effect; Musculoskeletal neck pain; Kinesio Taping; Expectations; Suggestion.
