Why do we use Taping / Bracing?
At Offaly Physio & Performance Lab we use taping as a
protective mechanism in the presence of an existing injury. Taping would rarely be our main treatment but can be helpful to assist in
injury recovery and management. We tape for:
- Pain relief
- Joint stability
- Athlete Confidence
- Injury prevention
- Offload tissues
- Assist poor joint alignment
- Switch off muscles
- Assist a muscle
- Improve proprioception
- Compress injured tissue
Types of tape / braces?
- Sports strapping is most often a rigid style of strapping tape to stabilise and support joints.
- Kinesiology / Rock tape acts to dynamically assist your muscle function.
