The Mueller Kinesiology tape is a uniquely designed tape for treatment of muscular disorders, lymphedema reduction and joint proprioceptive support to help reduce recovery times and improve fitness levels. Tape over and around muscles in order to assist and give support or to prevent over-contraction. Gives support while still maintaining full range of motion. This enables the individual to participate in his/her normal physical activities with functional assistance. The second technique, which is most commonly used in the acute stage of rehabilitation, helps prevent overuse or over-contraction and helps provide facilitation of lymph flow for an entire 24 hour period. The Mueller Kinesiology taping also affects the activation of the neurological system and the circulatory system. Muscles are not only attributed to the movements of the body, they also control the circulation of venous and lymph flows, body temperature, etc. Therefore, the failure of the muscles to function properly induces various kinds of symptoms. Consequently, more attention was given to the importance of muscle function in order to activate the body's own healing process. Using an elastic tape, such as Mueller Kinesiology tape, it was discovered that muscles and other tissues could be helped by outside assistance. Mueller Kinesiology Taping is an innovative approach to treating nerves, muscles and organs.Used in hospitals, clinics, universities, professional sports teams and national sports teams. Some features of Mueller Kinesiology tape are: 100% cotton and latex free Elasticity of up to 30-40% from resting length Tape is applied with 10% stretch Medical grade, heat sensitive acrylic adhesive Allows the skin to breathe Thickness and weight approximates that of skin Easily tolerated Allows range of motion and does not restrict like conventional athletic tape Elastic properties support and reduce muscle fatigue Facilitated myofascial release and improves lymphatic flow - in turn reducing pain and swelling Can be worn for several days (3-5) without re-application Physiological Effects of Mueller Kinesiology Taping: Relieves pain Supports muscles in movement Removes lymphatic fluid congestion Corrects joint mis-alignment Assists in positioning a muscle or joint into proper position for rehabilitation Assists a weak muscle by placing it in a normal position Improves kinesthetic awareness of posture and alignment
