LINFOTAPING TREATMENT WITH DECOMPRESSIVE EFFECT OF ELASTIC ADHESIVE TAPE (TAPE)
The Cristina Perosa Nursing Study is qualified and qualified for the use and application of the LinfoTaping technique which consists in applying an elastic adhesive tape (tape) on the skin, with a decompressive effect. LinfoTaping is an innovative technique for the treatment of lymphedema, haematomas, scars, joint pain, stiffness and muscle fatigue, skin blemishes and localized deposits of fat, cellulite, congestion and malfunctions of the vascular and lymphatic system.
The LinfoTaping is a technique devised and developed by David Blow, founder and president of the NeuroMuscular Taping Institute, which has its headquarters in Rome since 2003.

For the treatment of LinfoTaping a special tape is used consisting of a layer of cotton a few millimeters thick with acrylic adhesive (latex free) coated with waves, has an elasticity overlapping the skin, is elastic only in length (about 40% ) and resistant to water, leaves no residue, is suitable for all skin types and contains no drugs or other ingredients.
The tape (tape) applied with decompressive technique reduces lymphatic and blood stasis, improves local microcirculation, allows the absorption of any edema or hematomas, relaxes the contracted muscles and performs a beneficial antalgic action.
The application of LinfoTaping produces a stimulation of elongation at both the cutaneous and subcutaneous levels. This stimulus increases the elasticity of the skin and restores a normal extension of the same over the path of the muscle and the tendon, ie exercises a decompressive action.
THE ADVANTAGES OF THIS TECHNIQUE ARE MANY:
It improves blood circulation and increases lymphatic drainage thanks to a bio-mechanical stimulation;
Re-educate the motility of the lymphatic vessel by restoring its automatism - especially in recent edema;
It exerts an appreciable vagotonic or anti-stress effect, since, being light, slow and repeated bio-mechanical stimuli, the vegetative nervous system is stimulated with a relaxing effect.
Basically, the LinfoTaping, with its continuous action of modification of the local pressure, exerts a beneficial effect on microcirculation, improving the vascularization and oxygenation of cells and tissues, increasing lymphatic drainage and reducing congestion and pain, with regenerating effect of cutaneous and connective tissue.
The LinfoTaping can be applied as a support for manual lymphatic drainage (Manual Lymph Drainage) main therapeutic procedure, applying it: after manual therapy, before, during, alternatively, under a compression bandage, proximal to a compression bandage or as an alternative to compressive bandage.
