What is Sports Taping?
When an athlete suffers from an injury or condition that affects their performance, it can have serious repercussions on and off the field. That's why sports taping, and regular sports massage are essential parts of an athlete's wellness routine. Here are some benefits of sports massage with sports taping:
​
-
Reduces the risk of injury and re-injury
-
Helps warm up and loosen muscles before and after training and games
-
Reduces muscle tone, putting athletes in better condition for their chosen sport
​
Sports taping is like having a supportive friend during physical activity. By applying adhesive tape to muscles, ligaments, and joints, it can help prevent injuries and ease existing pain.

What to Expect from Sports Taping
Sports taping is another technique used to support and stabilize vulnerable joints. Although it doesn't guarantee against re-injury, it offers many benefits, including:
​
-
Joint and ligament support
-
Rehabilitation
-
Reduction of swelling
-
Psychological benefits (comfort taping when injuries are completely healed or routine taping)
There are two types of taping: ridged and kinesiology.
Ridged Taping
Ridged Tape is a strong and has little elasticity, making it ideal for limiting the range of motion in joints like ankles, knees, shoulders, and elbows to prevent re-injury.
​
Kinesiology Tape
Kinesiology Tape is a very thin, stretchy, and elastic tape that is designed to move with the body without restricting movement. Kinesiology taping can also help reduce swelling and bruising by aiding the movement of fluid through the lymphatic system.
