Taping

[teena82]

Is there a way to tape elbows which allows some support without restricting movement too much? I'm going to put on a piece of kinesio tape tonight just to have something but I'm wondering if there's other options.

I know I'm not a coach, but I found this video on YT on how to tape elbows with kinesio tape: ‪KT Tape: Tennis Elbow‬‏ - YouTube It says 'Tennis Elbow' but that doesn't mean that taping method is just for tennis players. Tennis Elbow can be caused from a variety of activities, not just tennis. You can also use an elbow brace like this: ProCare Elbow Sleeve - The Brace Shop. I've seen them at some drug stores before. Hope this helped you some!

Support for what in specific? Hyperextension? ‪Elbow Taping to Prevent Elbow Hyperextension‬‏ - YouTube. There are a lot of how to tape videos on youtube. I know a girl who busted her elbow because he arms hyperextend. She still does gym but bought some braces that allow normal movement inward but won't allow them to hyperextend if that is the issue you are having.

Kinesio tape and methods of taping is not really to give the joint support. If you're not sure why you have elbow pain, it might be a good idea to see a doctor and get a diagnosis before taping.
