What is white sports tape?
white sports tape was originally invented in the 1970s by Japanese chiropractor Dr. Kenzo Kase.
He designed it to tightly support muscles and joints during daily, leisure and sports activities.
The main feature of the Kinesiology Tape is that it provides compression without restricting movement. This is different from other sports or exercise tapes.
Does white sports tape Really Work?
sports tape can be applied in a “crossover” fashion to help provide compression techniques. This can also improve swelling and expulsion of metabolites from the injury site.
Postural benefits have also been found by using KT tape to help retrain muscles and joints.
This resolves the imbalance and allows the body to take a better position to prevent re-injury.
The long-term solution is to address the underlying cause of the injury and strengthen muscle and movement imbalances.
But the application of white sports tape products can start the process. It can then help ensure that the body can start supporting itself naturally.
When should white sports tape be used?
sports tape have a range of specific uses:
• Support muscles during physical activity
• Resolve muscle tension
• Assist with lymphatic drainage
• Activation of the endogenous analgesic system
• Correct joint problems
• Pain management
• Reduce swelling after injury
sports tape can be used on a range of body areas including: shoulders, knee pain, ankles, wrists, elbows, shin, back and more.
