Abstract

The sports world has always experimented with novel treatment techniques, given the need of elite athletes to recover quickly. These techniques have often been drawn from useful treatments for musculoskeletal diseases. For the last decade, neuromuscular taping, also known as kinesiotaping, has been used in Europe in the early treatment of osteomuscular lesions. However, this non-invasive technique is useful in many other areas, including disorders resistant to conventional treatments such as trochanteritis and plantar fasciitis, among others. In the present article, we review the utility of kinesiotaping and its possible indications in rheumatic diseases.
