The main uses of taping are selective protection, support and offloading. In the case of certain existing injuries, the deliberate limitation of joint mobility can help to avoid further injury. Taping also has an important role to play in sports injury prevention, as proven by its use for many years at elite level. "Taping in Sports" shows the main applications of taping, and includes step-by-step guides to the taping procedure. Accompanying measures such as skin protection are also featured.
