How can we help players avoid or recover as soon as possible?

In fierce football games, or even on the training grounds, players’ sweat and injuries are inevitable. We often see familiar players’ feet, legs, knees, backs, and shoulders injured, which is very painful. So, how can we help players avoid or recover as soon as possible?

We can use tape to deal with the difficulties athletes encounter. Also known as kinesiology tape, the therapy tape was invented and named in 1973 by Japanese chiropractor Kenzo Kase. It is a tape with practical therapeutic effects and has long been used as a protective measure for major sporting events.

The structure of the general therapy tape is divided into three layers. The outermost layer is made of spandex and cotton materials, which can be stretched within a specific limit, and the maximum stretch can reach 130-180%. The middle layer is generally acrylic or Henkel glue, which does not contain drug ingredients and dramatically reduces the allergy rate. The glue surface is distributed in a water ripple shape and has better air permeability. The innermost layer is the base paper, which acts as an isolation glue surface and can be torn off when used, which is very convenient.

What does the therapy tape do?

The principle of kinesiology tape is to use an external force to pull apart the fascia layers, increase the distance between them, reduce the friction between soft tissue and fascia, increase blood circulation and lymph circulation, and thus reduce the pain caused by overstrain.

It can also increase muscle strength. In short, therapy tape can help you maintain the stability of muscles, ligaments, and tendons, reduce pain and inflammation, and allow you to continue exercising and practicing confidently.

It is also the best alternative to protective gear. It will not hinder joint movement and plays an irreplaceable role in the field of sports.
