Taping techniques in rehabilitation

Taping techniques in rehabilitation involve applying specialized adhesive tapes to the skin to support muscles, joints, and ligaments. The tape helps reduce pain, improve circulation, and provide stability without restricting movement. It can also assist in correcting movement patterns and preventing injuries. Proper taping requires understanding of anatomy and injury mechanics to ensure effective support. This method is commonly used in sports medicine and physical therapy as part of a broader treatment plan to facilitate healing and enhance function.
