Traditional taping is a form of taping that has been used in the sporting world for years. It is applied to restrict movement, support joints and inhibit muscle activation.
This type of taping is often used to prevent re-injury by restricting the range of movement. Preventing the joint from achieving its full range which may cause injury or cause further damage.
If a ligament or muscle has been injured then we can apply this taping to take the load off these structures.
