Injured Olympians Turn to Tape: The Sticky Science of Kinesio

It's everywhere: on abs, legs, backs, even backsides.
.
The neon tape swathing sprinters and swimmers alike, called Kinesio, is
taking London by storm.
.
"It's all over the Olympics," said Dr. Jennifer Solomon of New York City's
Hospital for Special Surgery. "Athletes love it."
.
Developed by a Japanese chiropractor, Kinesio claims to cut pain and boost
performance. And judging by its prominence at this year's Games, athletes
think it works.
.
"If you ask them, they say it does," said Solomon, team physician for the
U.S. Tennis Association. "But there's no solid scientific evidence that
this tape helps."
.
Crafted from cotton and medical grade adhesive, Kinesio is more flexible
than traditional tape. And when strategically strewn along injured
muscles, its gentle tug promotes circulation to help clear out damage,
according to its maker.
.
"No one's claiming this is a cure," said Michael Good, international
director for the Albuquerque, N.M.-based company. "It's an adjunct
therapy."
.
But a slew of studies that failed to find bona fide benefits have some
experts skeptical.
.
"It might have some small role in the rehab process," said Dr. Dennis
Cardone, assistant professor of orthopedic surgery at NYU Langone Medical
Center in New York. "But without evidence, we can't say it's doing
anything near what the company claims or what athletes using it say they
feel."
.
The effort to tease out the tape's true benefits is complicated by the
placebo effect.
