Kinesiology Taping
Pain from patella femoral arthritis

Kinesiology taping has been clinically shown to help with the natural response to inflammation. This swelling causes pressure and pressure causes pain; to reduce the pain we have to reduce the pressure, and this is where specific kinesiology taping procedures can be utilised to assist in the reduction of the pressure that has built up within the tissues. Correct application of KTMs therefore helps alleviate pain and encourages the facilitation of lymphatic drainage.  This can also be used in conjunction with ice packs and non steroidal anti-nflammatory drugs (NSAID).  Kinesiology taping can also be used to correct possible joint misalignment by relieving abnormal muscle tension.

 

This is offered as an additional treatment.   Please ask if you are interested when booking an appointment.

 

Some clients once familiar with the technique are able to apply the tape to themselves.  You can therefire purchace a roll from myself at cost price for use at home.
