INDICATIONS
- Kaytape is an elasticised sports tape that's designed to help relieve discomfort over muscles, tendons, and ligaments.
- Kaytape is applied along these same muscles, ligaments, and tendons to deliver external support while being active and recovering from injuries.
- We understand that Kaytape helps in reducing pressure over tissue and support muscles by helping the muscle to not over-extend or over-contract.
- Kaytape is trusted by various medical professionals and is widely used by doctors, physical therapists, athletic trainers, chiropractors massage therapists and others.
How does it work?
- When an area of the body is injured by impact or over-use, lymphatic fluid builds up causing inflammation and swelling.
- This may cause elevated pressure over soft tissue, which can then cause discomfort/pain.
- Kaytape helps to lift the skin, thereby decompressing layers of skin fascia and allowing improved flow of lymphatic fluid.
- Lymphatic fluid transports white blood cells through the body's vascular system and helps to removes undesirable content.
