SPORTS TAPING IN CHORLEY AT MUSCLE MENDER
If you've ever seen that brightly coloured tapes on athletes, you've seen sports tape (or kinesiology tape, to use its proper name). Kinesiology tape helps cue movement, alter the sensations in painful areas, provide support for strains and sprains, and even help bruises fade quicker.
Find out how I use kinesiology tape or sports taping to help you feel better and move better at Muscle Mender in Chorley.

SOME OF THE CONDITIONS I CAN HELP YOU WITH:

BACK PAIN & SCIATICA

SHOULDER & NECK PAIN

LEG, HIP & KNEE PAIN

MUSCLE & JOINT PAIN

Sports taping - or kinesiology taping - is a method where a special elastic tape is applied to your body to support and stabilise muscle and joints without restricting movement like a compression bandage or splint does. The tape is designed to mimic the elasticity of human skin, which allows it to move with your, while providing the support you need.
There's no difference between "sports taping" and "kinesiology taping". Kinesiology is the name given to the scientific study of movement, which is why it's formally called kinesiology tape, but it's popularity with athletes and sportspeople has led to to it being known as sports taping. Whatever you call it, it can be a secret weapon in helping you get moving again.
Kinesiology tape is applied in specific patterns to target muscle and joints. The tape lifts the skin slightly, creating space between the skin and the underlying tissues. This helps to reduce pressure on the lymphatic drainage system, increasing blood flor and lymphatic drainage. As a result, it can help reduce inflammation, relieve pain, and support muscles and joints.
There's lots of reasons to try sports taping if you're injured, including:
-
Relieving pain and discomfort
-
Supporting muscle and joints
-
Enhancing performance

Had the second of my bundle plan sports massage today. I can highly recommend Arran with his professionalism and attention to detail. You feel in safe hands and Arran explains what he is doing and why as the massage progresses. Will be back for a top up sports massage next week.

I had an issue with my lower back for a few months and a friend recommended Arran from muscle mender. Arran was professional and courteous, and made me feel at ease during the assessment and treatment. This was my first experience of a sports massage. From my experience I personally would recommend Arran. I was impressed and assured with Arran I have made a further booking, 5 out of 5 from me.
DEBBIE SAYS
I used Muscle Mender to help me with a shoulder problem that was limiting movement and causing pain.
Arran taped the shoulder, really taking his time to get the best from the application, making sure everything was comfortable for me.
I over the moon with the results as I had instant relief from the discomfort. The area was supported by the tape which allowed the muscle to rest, I had pain free, full range of movement within a few days.
Highly recommended.
