I Completed an advanced Kinesio Taping course today, as seen on the likes of David Beckham and Ian Thorpe and elite athletes all around the world. It is fantastic for lymphatic drainage, haematoma (bruising), acute trauma, tendonitis, bursitis, supporting muscles and improving flexibility, re-educating the muscles, joints and fascia and is great at enhancing performance. The Tape can be left on for 4-5 days and unlike traditional tape there is minimal discomfort upon removal.For people with acute sprains and muscle strains it can dramatically reduce swelling and accelerate tissue healing within hours.You can achieve the same response with 5 minutes of tape application that you can with 30 minutes of soft tissue massage and lymphatic drainage.
Kinesio/K tape is re-writing the rules of rehabilitation and performance enhancing, and it is available in Chalfont St Peter and Gerrards Cross at Bodyworks Clinic.
