Aku Tape
Tension overloads the muscles and leads to ruptures.
(Tears) in the muscle tissue.
Lymph fluid forms and cannot drain away through the muscle tears/swelling, leading to swelling and pain.
As a rule, the tape is applied to a suitably pre-stretched area of skin/body.
Due to its elasticity, the tape follows every movement of this body area, creating a permanent displacement of the skin adhering to the tape against the subcutaneous tissue.
The effect is similar to that of lymphatic drainage.
The tape lifts the skin, increases the space/distance and ensures better lymph drainage - the swelling decreases - the pain subsides.
