Über Kinesiotape
Das Kinesio-Taping bietet sich bei Erkrankungen der Muskeln (Muskelverspannung, Muskelzerrung), der Sehnen und des Skeletts an. Bei der Kinesio-Therapie werden etwa fünf Zentimeter breite Baumwollstreifen (sogenannte Kinesiotapes) entlang des Verlaufs der betroffenen Muskeln und Sehnen auf die Haut geklebt. Entsprechend der Kinesiologie werden dazu unterschiedliche Farben gewählt. Die Kinesio-Tapes bewirken durch eine reflektorische Wirkung eine Erhöhung der Blut- und Lymphzirkulation und beschleunigen dadurch den Heilungsprozess oder die Leistungsfähigkeit der Muskulatur im Wettkampf oder Alltag.
