Athletes of all shapes and sizes have experienced some type of joint or muscle pain at one point or another. Whether it was after a big game or after an intense work out, the pain is real and can sometimes affect your game performance for the next few days. Some people may consider going to a chiropractor to get things re-aligned or loosened up a bit. While this is a good option, there is an even better alternative that allows you to have relief for many days in a row without having to see a doctor or chiropractor multiple times. Sunbury chiropractor has professionals who are trained and knowledgeable about a method that is called Kinesio taping. It was designed for maximum relief and minimum pain after just a few hours of use.
How to do it
Kinesio taping method is a fairly easy procedure that does not involve medication at all. The tape is supposed to be applied directly onto your skin over the affected areas. Whether you have a sore shoulder, knee, or lower back, the tape can put anywhere and work wonders no matter where you put it. It is made from a very thin and elastic type material so it acts like another layer of skin – and it feels that way too! You won’t even know it’s there after the application is done. Instead of fully wrapping your sore area, you can place the tape just over the painful parts and the tape will relieve and soothe your muscle and joint pain in hours. The tape has a vacuum effect on your skin and will create drainage of your muscle systems to allow for less inflammation and pain.
The Benefits
The tape is incredibly beneficial for health purposes – it can be left on for up to 5 days straight without you having to readjust or replace it at all. You can wear it 24/7 even through a shower, laps in the pool or a good old fashioned sweaty run. It can be towel dried just like your skin and continue working to relieve you aches all throughout the day. Because you don’t have to wrap it fully around your body, you won’t have to worry about it sliding around or slipping out of place. Once it is on, it’s there for the next few days which gives you constant relief and hopefully allow you to perform your best.
