In human medicine, taping has long been an important part of established treatment. Taping supports virtually the entire spectrum of physical therapy.

Taping is successfully used in performance sports, both for humans and horses. Documentation and treatment results clearly show that a specialized tape therapy for horses, carried out by a trained practitioner/therapist, can provide the same therapeutic benefits as in human medicine.

Taping works with various techniques targeting proprioceptive muscles, ligaments, and joints. It can be used to influence muscle tone, joint mobility, and stabilization. Additionally, as the tape lifts the tissue, it improves blood and lymph circulation. This stimulates the body’s self-healing mechanisms.

Various taping techniques can be used for muscle tension, ligament and tendon issues, swelling/edema, lymph nodes, overuse, muscle spasms, and to correct improper and energy-draining movement patterns.
