Microcirculatory Applications
Technique #1
“Stretch the tape AND the muscle™” ` Microcirculatory Applications:
Example: Ń Theory
x Creates convolutions on the skin (Accordion Effect)
• Use the Lymphatic Spider™ x These convolutions create alternating areas of low and high
pressure
• Improve superficial fluid
dynamics x Through the properties of diffusion, these alternating
pressure systems effectively create “rivers” assisting in the
reduction of fluid stasis
• Improve lymphatic drainage
x Removes chemical irritants assisting in blocking the
• Treats Swelling, Bruising, inflammatory cycle preventing unwanted fibrosis and
Oedema and/or Ecchymosis accelerates the healing of tissue
` Structural Applications
“Stretch the tape NOT the muscle™” Ń Theory
• Prevent harmful ranges of motion x Continuous biofeedback associated with potentially
without a hard end feel injurious ROM without hard end feel
• Dynamically supports better postural x Allows for improved postural positions without limiting
positions full ROM (shoulder)
Poor Posture e

` Application
Break the cycle Mechanical
Ń Tissue is not stretched but placed into support provided
of poor posture
biomechanical correct posture by the tape
and abnormal
mechanics
Ń Tape is stretched to the amount necessary to assist
in preventing motion into potentially injurious
motions
x More stretch = Less motion Continuous and
Stimulates

supportive of injured areas
` Structural Applications
Ń Used to Block possible injurious motions
x Determine the point at which injury/pain will occur
x Bring the patient just out of painful range
x Apply tape at this position
x Example: Disc herination:
x Pain with radiation at 35 degrees of standing
x Bring patient to 30 degrees of flexion and apply tape
