Acu-Taping and Kinesio-Taping

Soothing pain gently – quick and effective against chronic pain

The elastic tape carries out every movement with the affected body part. This causes a permanent movement of the hypodermis and the skin attached to the tape. The effect is similar to the one achieved by a lymphatic drainage or a massage of the connective tissue, the energy flow to the meridians (energy channels) is stimulated and supports the self healing process.

Acu-Taping has become very popular and has been approved in sports medicine, because it can be used for professional sports as well as for leisure sports. The use can not only have therapeutic reasons, but also preventative ones.

Acu-Taping can cure pain in joints and tendons, neck, back and lower back pain, strains and headaches, as well as period pain, tinnitus, rectification of scars, pregnancy discomfort and orange-peel skin.

Durability of the tape:

Acute pain or complaints will be treated with a (mostly blue) tape for about 24 hours, the further treatment is done by the application of a red or skin-colored tape. Chronic complaints will be treated for about 5-8 weeks. The tape has to be exchanged every 5-7 days. To prevent further discomfort the tape remains during exercise.
