FUNCTIONAL or ATHLETIC TAPING<\/h2>\n

This is the process of applying tape directly to the skin in order to maintain a stable position of joints and muscles during movement and\/or athletic activity.\u00a0 There are two main categories of this taping:\u00a0 Prescription Taping to support an injury and Preventative Taping to prevent an injury.\u00a0 These tapings can be applied to ankles, knees, wrists, and elbows.\u00a0 The goals of taping are to restrict the motion of an injured joint in order to add temporary stability.\u00a0 It compresses soft tissue to reduce swelling, supports involved joints so as to protect them from re-injury, and adds stability while the injured body part heals.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row el_class=”serv-single-page-text”][vc_column width=”3\/4″][vc_column_text animation=”grve-fade-in”]Elastic Therapeutic Tape, aka Kinesiology Tape (K-Tape), is also used to treat pain and disability from athletic or movement injuries.\u00a0 Kinesio tape is designed to mimic human skin with roughly the same thickness and elastic properties.\u00a0 The recoiling properties of this cotton tape allows for correcting the alignment of weak muscles, as well as facilitating joint motion.\u00a0 The tape also lifts the skin, thereby increasing blood flow and circulation of lymphatic fluids.\u00a0 This increased space causes less pressure on the injured area\u2019s pain receptors and also stimulates the mechanoreceptors, which improves joint proprioception.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/4″]
