Kinesio Tex Taping
Kinesio Tex Taping® alleviates pain and promotes lymphatic drainage by structurally lifting the skin.
The taped portion moves with the skin, increasing the space under the skin where the lymph ducts are. As a result, pressure and irritation is taken off the neural/sensory receptors.
The lymph system can then gently reduce swelling and pain.
Over a bruise, Kinesio Tex Tape® demonstrates the ability to increase the circulation and facilitate lymphatic flow.
These results are seen within 24 hours.
Therapists at Courtyard Clinic (Dursley) Ltd are fully trained in the application of Kinesio Tex Taping® and will only administer it when they feel it is necessary and after discussions with the patient on the particular benefits for the injury.
