kinesio tape Total Knee Arthroplasty

[Wilfie]

The knee is swallen and stiff, I'm asking if this kind of tape could help it. What do you think?

How will tape help it to become less stiff?.... There is a lot of hype about this tape but not a lot of evidence to back up a lot of what it says it can do.

Hi Wilfie,
There is actually more and more evidence that it is doing something.....
There are a lot of theories as to why the tape has influence on lymph and blood flow.
There is no consensus but we are seeing great results in the clinic......that is enough for me for the time being.....
Of course, evidence always needs to catch up... but if you do not try anything first.... you will never know if a treatment is going to work.
