Kinesiology Taping
Kinesiology taping is a modern, evidence-based, and non-invasive method to support healing processes, relieve pain, and provide functional stabilization of muscles and joints—without restricting mobility.
At Swiss Med Team, we use kinesiology tape as part of a holistic treatment approach to optimize neuromuscular function, improve circulation, and support lymphatic drainage.
How does kinesiology taping work?
-
The elastic tape is applied along anatomical structures on the skin. Due to its specific elasticity, it creates a microscopic lifting effect on the skin, resulting in positive effects on various physiological systems:
-
​
-
Proven effects and mechanisms
-
Relief of muscles and joints through targeted stimulation
-
Improved local blood circulation and microcirculation
-
Enhanced lymphatic drainage in cases of swelling and edema
-
Pain reduction through modulation of pain receptors
-
Support of proprioception (body awareness and coordination)
-
Optimization of movement patterns and posture
