The principle and function of physio therapy kinesiology tape

Physio therapy kinesiology tape

1. Sticking and pulling up the skin, enlarging subcutaneous space, improving blood and lymph circulation. Through wrinkles make the gap between the skin and the subcutaneous tissue is generated, which makes the blood circulation of the tissues more smooth, and the exudates of the injured parts are easily absorbed, which reduces fluid retention, reduces local pressure, and damages the tissues easily to rebuild. It can relieve pain and discomfort symptoms and accelerate the recovery of injury.


2. Physio therapy kinesiology tape plays a supporting and stabilizing role in muscles, ligaments, joints and other tissues. Because of its high elasticity, it does not limit the normal activities of the limbs, so it plays a better role in protecting, supporting and stabilizing kinesiology tape in sports. However, objectively speaking, its fixation effect is not as good as that of hard adhesive tape and bandage, but its characteristics of unrestricted movement are incomparable with that of traditional sticking cloth.


3. The elastic retraction effect of the sports tape can adjust the muscle, fascia, ligament, and joint positively. Sports tape can stimulate the unbalanced muscles, fascia, ligaments, and joints. Therefore, the body constantly adjusts to a new balance under the external stimulation, to relieve the symptoms.


4. Physio therapy kinesiology tape can achieve mechanical stimulation on the skin surface. By stimulating the skin surface and its receptor receptors, it can stimulate or inhibit the central nervous system and achieve the analgesic effect.


5. The kinesiology tape can adjust the temperature of the sticking part. Through promoting blood circulation and lymph circulation, muscle tape can regulate skin temperature.


6. The changes in surface pressure at the binding site have a benign stimulating effect on the body. When a part of the body is hit or other causes of pain, the most instinctive response is to hold (or cover, or press) the pain area to relieve the pain. The muscle tape is like a hand to hold the painful part, which makes the patient feel safe, pain relieved and comfortable, and plays the role of psychotherapy and comfort.


So is physio therapy kinesiology tape only pasted after injury? The answer is no.
