Study aim: The aim of this study is to determine the effect of upper trapezius muscle kinesiology taping combined with Swedish massage on the Neck Pain Disability Index, Neck Range of Motion, Quality of Life, Deep Neck Muscle Function Index, and Forward Head Angle in women with chronic neck pain. Design: This study is a randomized controlled trial (RCT) with parallel groups. Participants will be randomly assigned to two groups using Excel software (RAND function): intervention group (kinesiotaping and Swedish massage) and control group (usual care or placebo). The sample size is set at 100 patients and the study will be conducted in phase 2. Settings and conduct: This study was a randomized clinical trial conducted in the laboratory of the Faculty of Sport Sciences at Razi University, in a controlled environment using advanced equipment. Participants were randomly assigned to intervention and control groups. The intervention group received a combination of upper trapezius kinesiotaping and Swedish massage for eight weeks. Data were collected before and after the intervention using the Neck Disability Index (NDI), goniometer, and SF-36 questionnaire. Participants/Inclusion and exclusion criteria: Participant inclusion criteria included: Having chronic neck pain for at least 3 months. Age between 20 and 50 years. Not receiving physical or drug treatments affecting the neck in the past 6 weeks. Participant exclusion criteria included: History of surgery or serious injury to the neck. Having advanced neuromuscular or inflammatory diseases. Intervention groups: Intervention groups: 1. Kinesiotaping + Swedish massage group: 2. Control group: - Receive usual care or sham intervention (if applicable) without kinesiotaping or Swedish massage. Main outcome variables: Neck Pain Disability Index, Neck Range of Motion, Quality of Life, Deep Neck Muscle Performance Index, and Forward Head Angle
