Chris McNicholl brings the experience of the Olympic Games and two Commonwealth Games to his sports taping courses for UK Physios in Sport. In this podcast we dig below the surface. Does taping really prevent injuries and if so, how? We cover lower limb, upper limb, joints & muscles. Football and rugby. But we keep the issue of Kinesio-tape for a separate podcast. You’ll hear Chris refer to the following papers: Tricia J. Hubbard, et al. Effect of Ankle Taping on Mechanical Laxity in Chronic Ankle Instability Foot & Ankle International/Vol. 31, No. 6/June 2010 Heather Miller et al.
