What is kine­sio tap­ing?

Kine­sio tap­ing is an effec­tive method of mod­ern phys­io­ther­a­py in which elas­tic tapes are applied to the skin to stim­u­late the body’s own heal­ing process­es. The method was orig­i­nal­ly devel­oped in Japan; today, kine­sio tape is rec­og­nized world­wide in pain ther­a­py, sports med­i­cine and orthopaedics. In con­trast to clas­sic tap­ing, we at sportsmed.berlin only use high-qual­i­ty kine­si­ol­o­gy tape, which does not restrict move­ment due to its elas­tic­i­ty, but rather sup­ports it in a tar­get­ed man­ner.

The spe­cial tapes are skin-friend­ly, breath­able and water-resis­tant, which means they can be worn for sev­er­al days with­out any prob­lems. This ensures con­tin­u­ous and effec­tive ther­a­py in every­day life.

A sim­ple expla­na­tion of how Kine­sio tape works

The spe­cial effect of Kine­sio tape lies in its elas­tic­i­ty and the spe­cif­ic adhe­sive tech­nique. When applied cor­rect­ly, the elas­tic tape lifts the skin slight­ly, which leads to improved blood cir­cu­la­tion and opti­mized lym­phat­ic drainage. This acti­vates the body’s self-heal­ing pow­ers, relieves pain and reduces inflam­ma­tion in the long term.

The tape also has a stim­u­lat­ing effect on recep­tors in the skin and the under­ly­ing mus­cles, which reduces ten­sion and pro­motes mobil­i­ty. In our prac­tice in Berlin, we use dif­fer­ent tech­niques and indi­vid­u­al­ly tai­lored tap­ing meth­ods to max­i­mize the suc­cess of the treat­ment.

What are the ben­e­fits of kine­sio tap­ing?

Kine­sio tape ther­a­py offers numer­ous ben­e­fits for your health:

  • Effec­tive pain ther­a­py: quick relief for acute and chron­ic pain
  • Opti­mized mobil­i­ty: pro­motes mobil­i­ty and sta­bi­liza­tion of mus­cles and joints
  • Accel­er­at­ed regen­er­a­tion: sup­port for injuries and overuse
  • High lev­el of com­fort: pleas­ant to wear, water­proof and suit­able for every­day use

Dif­fer­ences to clas­sic tap­ing

Unlike clas­sic, rigid tape, kine­sio tape relies specif­i­cal­ly on the elas­tic prop­er­ties of the mate­r­i­al. Clas­sic tap­ing immo­bi­lizes joints in order to delib­er­ate­ly restrict move­ment. Kine­sio tape, on the oth­er hand, main­tains full mobil­i­ty and active­ly sup­ports nat­ur­al heal­ing process­es through a dynam­ic effect on mus­cles and joints.

Kine­sio thus opens up new pos­si­bil­i­ties, par­tic­u­lar­ly in mod­ern pain ther­a­py: Patients ben­e­fit from effec­tive treat­ment with­out being restrict­ed in their free­dom of move­ment.

Sci­en­tif­ic evi­dence on kine­sio tape

The effec­tive­ness of kine­sio tap­ing has now been inves­ti­gat­ed in numer­ous sci­en­tif­ic stud­ies. Many stud­ies con­firm that the tape can relieve pain, improve mobil­i­ty and sup­port the heal­ing process. Tap­ing is par­tic­u­lar­ly effec­tive for mus­cu­lar com­plaints, chron­ic pain and sports injuries.

 

As spe­cial­ists in the field of phys­io­ther­a­py and sports med­i­cine, we always rely on evi­dence-based treat­ment meth­ods in our prac­tice. Nev­er­the­less, we attach great impor­tance to indi­vid­ual diag­nos­tics to ensure that the method is used in a tar­get­ed and sen­si­ble man­ner.

Com­bin­ing kine­sio tape with oth­er forms of ther­a­py

Anoth­er key advan­tage of kine­sio tap­ing is that it can be ide­al­ly com­bined with oth­er ther­a­peu­tic pro­ce­dures. In our prac­tice, we offer shock wave ther­a­py and clas­sic phys­io­ther­a­py to max­i­mize the suc­cess of your treat­ment. Man­u­al ther­a­py mea­sures or tar­get­ed exer­cis­es by our sports med­i­cine spe­cial­ist in Berlin can also be per­fect­ly com­ple­ment­ed.
