Joint Strapping Series: Part 3

Welcome to the third and final part of our joint strapping series. This is a fast but super effective application, great for desk workers and anyone struggling with neck pain and stiffness.

This taping technique targets the levator scapulae, a muscle that often gets tight and irritated, leading to a stiff, achy feeling through the neck and top of the shoulder.

It can help ease discomfort, improve circulation, and give a bit of support to your posture - especially if you’re spending long hours at a desk or holding tension from stress.

Simple, effective relief 👌

Joint Strapping Series: Part ☝️

We’re reintroducing one of our key services - joint strapping & taping.

First up: The AC joint

Chances are, if you play contact sport, you’ve heard of this pesky joint. It’s quite unstable and is easily injured through contact or, a direct fall on the shoulder.

This strapping technique helps to support the joint which is a great way to manage aches and pains following an ACJ injury. This sort of strapping can also be applied to protect the joint in early stages of recovery.

If you’re struggling with AC joint injury, strapping may be right for you - get in touch to find out more.

Stay tuned to see our next instalment 👀
