X Shape, Used Successfully by Healthcare Providers, Now Easily Applied By Consumers
SpiderTech,™ the leading provider of specialized kinesiology taping products that naturally reduce pain and restore strength and mobility to injured and sore muscles, has introduced the new "X Spider," an easy-to-use therapeutic treatment that can be applied by anyone.
The X pattern is a shape most commonly cut from kinesiology tape rolls by chiropractors, therapists, sports medicine practitioners and other healthcare providers, but doesn't require the same degree of training and precision. With the X Spider, anyone can easily peel off the back of the pre-cut shape and apply it where there's soreness or pain in the same way as ice or a bandage, but with greater therapeutic benefits.
"The X Spider make this long-established therapy more accessible to both practitioners and individual patients," said SpiderTech's Chief Medical Officer, Dr. Kevin Jardine, DC, Med.Ac, CSCS, ART, CSTI. "We've simplified the use and application of kinesiology tape to make it more readily accessible."
Kinesiology tape—based on the principles of kinesiology, the science of human movement—has been widely used for 30 years in both professional sports and professional medicine. SpiderTech has reinvented the use of kinesiology tape with X and other innovative Pre-Cut Spiders. Dr. Jardine created the various shapes so that they don't have to be individually cut.
SpiderTech's drug-free therapeutic solution uses tape to naturally stimulate the nervous system through skin contact in order to restore strength and mobility to injured and sore muscles. Unlike a bandage, it encourages faster recovery, relieves pain and reduces swelling. The product also prevents future injury through enhancing necessary natural healing mechanisms. The tape is manufactured to be the same weight, thickness, and elasticity as skin and is therefore able to integrate with the body's sensory system naturally.
SpiderTech's X Spider kinesiology tape can provide pain relief and improved mobility to everyone from competitive runners, cyclists, golfers, tennis players and triathletes, to anyone with lower back, knee, neck and other common pains.
"The X Spider is a first step on the way to healing," said Dr. Jardine. "If an individual using the X Spider finds they are experiencing, for example, a 50 percent recovery rate, that other 50 percent can be achieved by seeing a licensed SpiderTech healthcare provider trained to use our advanced therapy solutions."
