Kinesio Tex Taping
Kinesio Tex Tape is this coloured tape all the champions seem to love. But does it work and how?
Angela Petrocchi, our physiotherapist and experienced certified Kinesio Tape instructor explains:
I just recently came back from the headquarters of the English Institute of Sport, where I thought a course for the physiotherapists of the Olympic teams and I am on my way to teach my colleagues who look after the players of one of the big premier league teams in Scotland. All the medical professionals treating elite athletes throughout the Country want to learn how to use Kinesio Tex Tape. Why is that?
Simple, that’s because Kinesio Tape can help recovering from injuries in a very efficient, natural and lasting way in much faster time.
In more cases than not a relief from the pain and an improvement of the function or movement in the treated area can be experienced immediately or short after the application.
No wonder the managers of the well paid football stars are keen fans of Kinesio Tape. They want them to go back to perform as soon as possible.
No wonder the Olympic athletes want to be able to perform at their best to come home with medals...
But don’t worry; you don’t need to be a professional athlete to be treated by Angela with Kinesio Tape. If Kinesio Tape is good for the best performers so it is good for us 'common mortals'. And that is why 85% of the applications of Kinesio Tape are made on normal population ranging from infants to elderly people.
