Therapeutic taping is a technique used by physiotherapists and other healthcare professionals to support injured structures, reduce pain, and enhance performance. It involves the application of tape to the skin to provide support, stability, and relief from discomfort.
Rigid Strapping Tape: Often referred to as "sports tape" or "athletic tape," it provides strong support and is commonly used for injuries requiring immobilization.
Elastic Strapping Tape: Offers less rigidity and is used when some flexibility is needed.
Kinesiology Tape: A more advanced form of elastic tape that provides dynamic support and can assist muscle function.
Pain Relief: By supporting and stabilizing injured areas, therapeutic taping can help alleviate pain.
Improved Stability: Taping can enhance joint stability and prevent re-injury.
Enhanced Performance: Athletes often use taping to improve their performance and confidence.
Reduced Swelling: Taping can help reduce swelling by providing compression and improving lymphatic drainage.
Correcting Faulty Biomechanics: Taping can help correct improper movement patterns and improve posture.
Skin Preparation: Ensure the skin is clean, dry, and free of any irritation or rash.
Tape Application: Apply the tape in the appropriate pattern to provide the desired support and effect.
Removal: Carefully remove the tape to avoid skin irritation.
Sports Injuries: Taping is widely used in sports to prevent injuries and support recovery.
Post-Surgical Support: Provides support during the healing process after surgery.
Chronic Conditions: Can be used to manage conditions like arthritis and tendonitis.
