Natural Healings introduces Flexio Taping
Flexio Taping uses a special elastic cotton adhesive tape that is directly
applied to stretched skin to support and rehabilitate. It allows full range of
motion and will not affect the bio-mechanics of the patient. There is no latex
so it is suitable for pediatric and geriatric patients. No compression on the
skin makes it feel light, so it can be worn for 3-5 days. Works with the
lymphatic system to increase blood and lymph circulation and relieve pain.
Flexio Taping is a technique based on the body's own natural healing process. It
is safe and recommended by medical professionals, but can be effectively
applied by the average person. The wave pattern of the latex-free adhesive
moves with skin and muscles and actually lifts the skin slightly. The lymphatic
system is gradually relieved of pressure and drains more freely.
Such
Flexio Taping is applied over muscles to reduce pain and inflammation,
relax overused tired muscles, and to support muscles in movement on a 24hr/day
basis. It is non-restrictive type of taping which allows for full range of
motion.
In
contrast, traditional sports' taping is wrapped around a joint strictly for
stabilization and support during a sporting event obstructing the flow of
bodily fluids as an UNDESIRABLE side-effect.
