Kinesio Taping and the Circulation and Endurance Ratio of the Gastrocnemius Muscle

Abstract: Context: Kinesio Tex tape is a therapeutic tape that is applied with the Kinesio-taping (KT) method and is theorized to increase circulation and subsequently improve muscle function. However, little research has been conducted to determine how KT affects performance.Objective: To determine the effect of KT on muscular endurance ratio, blood flow, circumference, and volume of the gastrocnemius muscle.Design Intervention(s): Tape was applied based on group assignment. The treatment KT group received the ankle-ta… Show more

“…(9) Quando avaliado o desempenho, uma pesquisa com 61 participantes, foi avaliado que os efeito do KT sobre a resistência, o fluxo de sangue, a circunferência, e o volume do músculo gastrocnê-mio, onde observaram não houve melhora na função anaeróbica e também não afetou a circulação do músculo. (15) Quanto à força muscular um estudo com 14 padelistas não registrou diferença estatisticamente significativa no que se refere à força isométrica máxima de preensão manual após a utilização do KT. (16) Porém, um artigo semelhante com 21 atletas colegiais avaliou os efeitos imediatos do KT na força do antebraço onde se concluiu que pareceu haver um aumento na sensação de força dos mús-culos do antebraço imediatamente após aplicação.…”
