Taping
There are many types of tape and taping techniques. Some of these include • Rigid sporting taping – to restrict range of motion; to protect or offload a joint.
• Kinesio taping – to enhance the proprioceptive input of an area
• Functional Fascial Taping® -‐ taping to facilitate proprioceptive input to enhance range of motion.
Be guided by your physiotherapist for how long you can you should wear tape. If it becomes itchy or uncomfortable at any stage it must be removed immediately.
