Scrape and Tape - How to use soft-tissue mobilization with tools and kinesiology taping techniques to accelerate your client's goals!
Presented by Rehab Connections
Description
Your clients can present with numerous soft-tissue dysfunctions ranging
from tendonitis to tendonosis, myofascial restrictions to fibrotic scar
tissue. How can you treat them manually for the quickest results?
Your clients may also present with swelling; poor posture-tissues on
one side locked long, while antagonistic tissues are locked short; and
or inhibition of muscle activation resulting in aberrant movement
patterns. How can you use elastic tape to "keep your hands on your
client" in-between sessions?
Scrape and Tape will provide you with the understanding and immediately
applicable skills to treat your client's soft-tissue and aberrant
movement patterns using soft tissue mobilization with tools and elastic
kinesiology tape (K-Tape). When used together, they provide a
synergistic effect that can accelerate your client's return to pain-free moving!
Expand your treatment repertoire and provide your clients with the same
skills and tools being requested by elite athletes and competitors across the country.

- Formulate 3 potential uses of STMT with simulated patient presentations and special populations.
- List the 3 main uses of elastic kinesiology tape (K-Tape) and describe their roles in facilitating patient recovery from injury and/or altered movement mechanisms.
- Demonstrate 5 proper applications of elastic kinesiology tape (K-Tape) for the support, neuromuscular re-education, and/or reduction of swelling of joints and muscles.
- Formulate 3 potential uses of elastic kinesiology tape (K-Tape) with simulated patient presentations and special populations.
