The Benefits of Kinesiology Fan Taping
Fan taping with kinesiology tape can assist with acute soft tissue injuries resulting in swelling and bruising. A study found that the taping increases the space between two layers of skin and therefore forces the excess fluid to drain into the lymphatic system subsequently contributing to the healing of the soft tissues.
In this taping method, it is also used to redirect the route of the excess fluid to an area of less congestion to allow the lymphatic system to drain the fluid and further the healing process.
