Taping & Joint Strapping
Taping & Joint Strapping
At South Coast Rx, we offer taping and joint strapping as part of our comprehensive approach to injury management, support, and performance. Taping can be a highly effective short-term intervention to aid movement, offload stressed tissues, or provide confidence during sport or rehab.
Integrated Into Rehab and Sport
Taping is often used as a temporary support while a more permanent solution — such as strength, control, or mobility — is developed through active rehabilitation. It can also be used pre-activity or on match days to enhance confidence, protect healing tissues, and maintain participation in training or sport.
Tailored to You
All taping techniques are applied based on a clinical assessment of your condition, movement, and goals. We’ll also educate you on how and when to use taping outside the clinic, and when it may no longer be necessary as your rehab progresses.
Types of taping we offer
- Rigid athletic tape for joint stabilisation and structural support
- Elastic kinesiology tape (e.g., K-Tape or RockTape) for dynamic support, proprioception, and muscle facilitation
- Compression taping for swelling management
- Offloading techniques to reduce stress on painful or irritated structures
