HOW IT WORKS?

---

When a muscle is inflamed, swollen, or stiff, the space between the skin and the muscle is compressed, resulting in constriction and congestion to the flow of lymphatic fluid and blood circulation. This compression applies pressure to the pain receptors located in the space between the skin and the muscle, which in turn relays discomfort signals to the brain resulting in the sense of 'pain' of affected area.

 If you stretch the skin of the affected area before the application of the Ares Kinesiology Tape the taped area will form wrinkles  when the applied area is back to its normal or neutral position. The wrinkling effect formed by the Ares Kinesiology Tape is  essential since this lifting of the skin creates more space for lymph and blood flow. Therefore the lymph drainage as well as  blood circulation in the affected area can be improved effectively through taping application. Eventually, the friction between the tissues beneath the skin is decreased due to the promoted movement of lymphatic fluid  and blood circulation. Pain is reduced because the pressure on the pain receptors is lessened. The end results are believed to  be reduced muscle fatigue, increase in range of motion (ROM), and better quality of muscle contraction.   Ares Kinesiology Tape can be used for treating and preventing common sports injuries such as ITBS, shin splints, plantar fasciitis,  knee injuries (including patella pain and patella tracking), shoulder injuries, back injuries, carpal tunnel syndrome, shoulder  instability, low back pain, shin splints, plantar fasciitis, rotator cuff injury, tennis elbow and many more. Ares Kinesiology Tape  is highly effective at providing pain relief, stability & support, & faster recovery for injured or sore muscles and joints without  limiting ROM (range of movement) or feeling of irritation.  

It's designed for professional athletes, Olympians, trainers, health professionals such as physiotherapists, exercise therapists,  orthopedic doctors, rehabilitative professionals and active people world-wide who take health & fitness seriously and who  refuse to stop training, playing, or living life active.   Ares Kinesiology Tape can be used for major orthopedic symptoms such as Carpal Tunnel Syndrome, Achilles tendon problem,  Shin splint, Tennis elbow/Golf elbow, Hallux Valgus, Frozen Shoulder, Flat foot, Intercostal Neuralgia, Rheumatism, Thumb  Tendinitis and etc.
