Details: KT tape is a versatile longitudinally elastic tape that can be used in techniques and applications of both the white athletic tape and McConnell taping by placing the tape on partial or full stretch though has several features for additional techniques and benefit. KT tape’s construction does allow for both more versatile use and longer duration use than other common taping. Kinesiology taping techniques have been used in Asia and Europe for nearly two decades though started becoming popular in the US in the late 1990s. These techniques were more recently seen on the world stage and gained notoriety during the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games. Proprioception KT tape can be used to create pressure over ligaments and tendons for improved proprioception and dynamic stability. This also has been theorized to stimulate mechanoreceptors thus improving proprioception. Diagnoses for these techniques include — ankle sprains, medial and lateral ligament sprains of the knee and patella tendonitis among many other applications. Functional Correction KT taping can also be used for functional correction that is assisting or limiting a motion through sensory stimulation and tactile cueing. Applications include position-and-hold technique and work very well for diagnoses which include patellofemoral dysfunction, subacromial impingement due to scapula/postural dysfunction.
