How does Kinesiology Taping work?
Muscles constantly extend and contract within a normal range;
however, when muscles over-extend and over contract, such as when
lifting an excessive amount of weight, muscles cannot recover and
become inflamed. When a muscle is inflamed, swollen or stiff due to
fatigue, the space between the skin and muscle is compressed,
resulting in constriction to the flow of lymphatic fluid. This
compression also applies pressure to the pain receptors beneath the
skin, which in turn communicates, "discomfort signals" to the brain
& emdash; the person experiences PAIN. This type of pain is
known as myalgia, or muscular pain.
To ensure that the muscles have free range of motion, elastic tapes
with an elasticity of 150-160% of its original length are
recommended for Kinesiology Taping. This specific elasticity also
will not allow an over stretch of the muscles themselves. It may
look like conventional athletic tape, but tape and Kinesiology
Taping is fundamentally different. Kinesiology Taping is based on a
different philosophy that aims to give free range of motion in
order to allow the body's muscular system to heal itself
bio-mechanically.
Kinesiology Taping alleviates pain and facilitates lymphatic
drainage by microscopically lifting the skin. The taped portion
forms convolutions in the skin, thus increasing interstitial space.
The result is that pressure and irritation are taken off the neural
and sensory receptors, alleviating pain. Pressure is gradually
taken off the lymphatic system, allowing it to channel more freely.
Taped area forms convolutions then it increases the space between
the skin and muscles and promotes the flow of lymphatic fluid.
UNSTRETCHED. In this case, we stretch the skin of the affected area
before application of the tape. This is done by stretching the
muscles and joints in the affected area. After application, the
taped skin will form convolutions when the skin and muscles
contract back to their normal position. When the skin is lifted by
this technique, the flow of blood and lymphatic fluid beneath the
skin improves.
The effect of Kinesiology Taping
1. Normalize Muscle Functions.
It treats muscle pain due to overuse and troubles. The stressed
muscles return to initial state from shoulder pain caused by
holding heavy things, calf pain caused by walking too much, whole
body pain due to long time exercise, cramp, etc.
2. Increase Circulation of Blood, Lymph, and Tissue Liquid.
Its normally called bad blood circulation and examples are treating
shoulder stiff and cold feeling disorder. When circulation of blood
and lymph goes bad, it sticks to one place and as it becomes clot,
it starts to put pressure on nerves. Through taping, it gives space
between skin and organs which helps circulation and improve all
kinds of illnesses.
3. Reduce Pain
It stimulus skin and muscle which reduces neurologically. By
nature, people themselves have function for reducing pain and it
activates by attaching this tape.
4. Prevent from runoff of Articulation.
When muscles pulls bone due to abnormal stress, articulation might
run off.
By pasting the tape, movement of muscles goes normal state and it
prevent from runoff of articulation.
The caution of Kinesiology Tape
1) Find the right part of muscle you feel pain and tape it
fitted to your muscle size and shape. When muscle comes back to
normal state, there should be wrinkles on the tapes.
2) Do not extend the tape. Rather stretch the muscle to the
maximum and tape it.
3) Clean the part you are going to tape.
4) After taping, if you feel itchy or flare, remove the tape
immediately.
5) If you extend the tape, it might continuously stimulus the
skin and cause skin trouble.&nsp; So, do not extend and tape
it.
6) When removing the tape, take off along the skin texture
and put one hand pushing your skin and use the other hand to remove
the tape. Be careful to take it off slowly. (Dont take off it with
a jerk.)
7) If possible, process taping with support of specialists.
If processing individually, go over the taping instruction
carefully before further process.
