Kinesiology tape is an elastic band often used in rehabilitation and sports medicine. Its elastic and flexible material mimics the properties of human skin, allows free movement and at the same time provides support for muscles and joints. Here are some ways to use kinesiology tape.

Supporting muscles and joints

The tape can be applied to muscles and joints to provide support during physical activity. It can help reduce the risk of injury or support muscles and joints while an injury is healing.

Improving blood circulation

Kinesiology tape can help increase blood and lymph flow to the area where it is applied. This can promote faster healing and reduce swelling.

Pain relief

The tape can help reduce pain by acting on nerve receptors in the skin and subcutaneous tissue. In this way, it can be useful in the treatment of muscle and joint pain.

Coordination of postural behavior

Kinesiology tape can be used to support proper body alignment and correct posture problems.

Injury prevention

Using the tape before sports activity can help reduce the risk of injury by providing support to muscles and joints.

Restriction of movement

Tape can be used to limit excessive joint movement during recovery from certain types of injuries.

Lymphatic drainage

Kinesiology tape can be used to support the lymphatic system, which can help reduce swelling.

Muscle regeneration

Applying tape to muscles can promote faster muscle recovery after exercise.

Highlights

It is important to note that kinesiology tape should be applied by a professional who is familiar with the proper techniques and procedures. Improper application may not bring the expected results or even make the situation worse.
