N2  - ABSTRACT:  	The purpose of this study is to identify the effectiveness of Kinesiotaping in a student with forward head posture in terms of sitting angles, ROM and disability. This is a single-subject design with repeated measures involving a college student with forward head posture. Subject with forward head posture showed minimal favourable improvements in forward head angle, sagittal head angle and Neck Pain Disability Questionnaire. Protraction angle showed no particular trend and change in level in this study. Cervical flexion demonstrated stable values during intervention phase. Cervical rotation and extension showed an increasing and decreasing trends, respectively. Cervical lateral flexion outcomes were the most unstable measurements in this study. The findings of this study may suggest possible favourable effects of Kinesiotaping on forward head posture seen during the intervention phase. Withdrawal phase measurement had shown similar scores compared to intervention phase. Withdrawal phase measurement had shown similar scores compared to intervention phase which could probably be attributed to the Kinesiotape's long term effect. The researchers suggest a further study of Kinesiotaping in combination with other physical therapy management such as exercise program for forward head posture with greater samples with controls
