The effects of Kinesio-Taping

Kinesiology tapes are one of the most therapeutic tapes used during Sport performance to minimize or control injuries. Most sport physicians use it to correct postural abnormalities, as a result of the tape recoiling properties it correct the alignment of weak muscles as well as facilitating joint motion. We apply this tape directly over muscle to decrease pain and inflammation during acute injuries.

The tape can also be used as a support mechanism for muscles in movement by relaxing overused muscle. If you bumped yourself or had a direct blow and have excessive swelling and pain, because of the tape’s natural healing properties it increases natural blood flow around muscles so we apply immediately after injury. It’s non-restrictive so it allows full range of motion.

Application can only be done by qualified therapist as it is applied in specific general shapes and techniques to treat specific injuries or disorders.  For best application come see us at Ifitbeauty.
