Background– Globally, stroke is a major public health problem and is considered one of the most common cause of mortality and disability worldwide. There is alteration in tone of abdominal muscles which leads to reduction in intra–abdominal pressure generation causing mechanical disadvantage to the central tendon of the diaphragm leading to inefficiency of diaphragmatic contraction. This makes it very important to improve the patient’s respiratory mechanics as it will further improve the functional performance during the rehabilitation. Methods and Results– 30 stroke patients were enrolled in the study and were randomly divided into two groups– A (diaphragmatic taping group) and B (intercostals taping group). PFT was done for both groups pre and post intervention. The post intervention IC and FIVC significantly increased in the group A as well as in group B. Although there was no significant difference found between the two groups. Conclusion– Facilitation technique of Kinesio–taping to Inspiratory muscles is a good tool to enhance & improve their functions of the in Hemiplegics
