How does Kinesiotape work?
Spidertech Kinesiology tape work in three ways.
Structurally
Kinesiotape provides dynamic support, and better postural positions, prevent harmful ranges of motion without a hard end feel, and it reduce strain on affected muscle.
Neurologically
This is the most important way and use of Kinesiotape. The tape creates an enhanced sensory stimulation leading to decreased perception of pain. It provides restoration of normal muscle activation and function through enhanced neurosensory feedback, it reinforces the restoration of functional stability, promotes peripheral neuroplasticity and stimulates the skin’s endogenous analgesic system.
Microcirculatory
Kinesiotape provides a wave pattern formation which enhances the superficial fascial thixotrophy and improved lymphatic flow. This in turn, reduces swelling and oedema
Ultimately, Kinesiotape makes the recovery process faster, and more importantly it prevents further deterioration of your injury, especially in repetitive sports as volleyball, running, tennis, baseball, and mixed martial arts.
