Medical taping, also known as kinesio taping, is a physiotherapy method that uses elastic tape to support muscles and joints without restricting movement. At Fysio & Motion, we apply this technique for injuries, back pain, overuse complaints, and even hay fever symptoms.
Medical taping involves applying elastic tape directly to the skin. The tape gently lifts the skin, which improves blood flow and lymph drainage, while stimulating the body’s natural healing process.
Medical taping is suitable for a wide range of complaints. Our therapists use it both for acute injuries and chronic problems.
Did you know that medical taping can reduce hay fever symptoms? By applying tape on specific points on the back, tension in the respiratory muscles is reduced. This often provides relief from symptoms like sneezing, nasal congestion, and itchy eyes.
This method is safe, drug-free, and can provide great relief during hay fever season.
Your first appointment starts with a short assessment to check whether medical taping is suitable for your complaint. The tape is applied directly to the skin and can stay on for several days, even while showering or exercising.
Medical taping is often combined with other physiotherapy treatments such as exercise therapy or manual therapy for maximum results.
Our therapists are trained in medical taping as part of physiotherapy. Every treatment is tailored to your needs so that the tape provides the best possible support.
