comment ITBS recovery methods, techniques, advice
Actually, it works in more than one way depending on the application method. Unlike regular athletic tape, it doesn’t restrict movement. The elasticity also helps to lift the skin to improve lymphatic drainage and reduce potential inflammation. Our site carries the clinical application book that goes into detail about the different ways to apply, ie when to stretch, how to anchor etc, but youtube is pretty good. It is easiest when you are new to use the pre-cut strips.

comment Patellofemoral Syndrome Exercises
Dave, you've just added a layer of body awareness to your fitness program - kinesthetic awareness - sensing the position of your joints and the firing of your muscles. By stretching your hamstrings, aligning your split squats and facillitating your VMO, hopefully your knees will improve. If you need more help, you now have enough knowledge to ask the right questions to find the right practitioner. A good trainer, massage therapist &/or physical therapist with a sports or orthopedic specialty can make a difference. Best of luck - knees are important!
