Product Description
Knowledge for skin movement and useful techniques of the skin taping for the clinical practice
Guiding skin to the direction of where it moves during the movement is effective for the improvement of pain or decreasing of muscle tone. This book contains full of the knowledge for skin movement and useful techniques of the skin taping for the clinical practice. Skin taping is effective for increasing and limiting range of motion (ROM), facilitating and inhibiting muscle activity, postural control or gait control, and is applicable for the diseases such as lumber disk herniation, lumber spondylolysis, scapulohumeral periarthritis, thoracic outlet syndrome, humeral lateral epicondylitis, hip osteoarthritis, knee osteoarthritis, iliotibial band friction syndrome, pes anserius tendonitis, patellar tendonitis, or Achilles tendonitis.
Clear pictures and instructions of each technique allow you to understand and follow the information provided in this book.
