Effects of Taping on Pregnancy-related Back Pain

This study is a randomized control trial with 3 main parts associated. 1) Initial visit: Potential participants will be recruited from 2 antenatal clinics at the participating hospital. A person from the circle of care will ask if they are interested in participating in a study regarding pregnancy‐related LBP. Participants are pre‐screened by a research investigator, If patients meet the eligibility criteria, they will be invited to participate. Research personnel will explain the study in full including the rationale (per the Project Consent Form), visit requirement, treatment protocol and follow‐up. Once consent is obtained, a Pre‐Visit Questionnaire will be administered while they are awaiting their antenatal appointment. 2) Physical exam and treatment: Following their appointment, research personnel will walk the participant to the Obstetrical Day Unit where the chiropractor will review the consent and questionnaire, perform a brief physical exam to ensure proper stratification of pain, randomized the participant (as pre‐determined by the biostatistician) and apply the appropriate taping protocol (intervention vs sham). 3) Follow‐up: Five to 7 days later, research personnel will follow‐up with the participant by phone and administer a questionnaire pertaining to their experience with the taping protocol. The total visit should take no more than 30 minute
