What types of sports bandages are there?
There are different types of sports supports that are used in different ways. A wrist support, for example, exerts targeted pressure on the forearm to relieve the muscles and alleviate pain. This allows them to gradually regenerate. These wrist supports are also sometimes used for sprains and strains. Back supports are used when there are chronic degenerative changes in the spine and mobility is restricted as a result. Here, appropriate supports can provide useful prevention and stabilisation, but can also be a helpful measure against existing back pain. There are special medical supports for the elbow - which we often put a lot of strain on in everyday life without realising it - that work like a support bandage: They have integrated massage pads that relieve pain and compensate for strain.
Knee sports supports are also frequently used after knee operations and can also be used to prevent injuries. These support bandages can also help people who suffer from knee pain or problems with the stability of their joints.
Use and effect of sports supports and support bandages
It is important that sports bandages and support bandages are both breathable and elastic. A perfect fit is essential for successful stabilisation, but the support bandage must not be too tight or too loose. The required compression effect and pain relief can only be achieved with a correct fit. The right size is also important for sports bandages. Before buying from the online shop, we therefore recommend measuring the circumference - including the kneecap - for knee supports, for example. The easiest way to do this is to stand or sit with your legs stretched out.
Sports supports and support bandages, such as Mediplast or Dermaplast, provide lasting relief and stabilise the joints and bones. The material is breathable and elastic, so that the corresponding area is protected from excessive strain, while at the same time being protected from injury. Incidentally, a compression bandage also heightens the body's awareness: you automatically protect the area wrapped in the sports bandage a little more when you wear it.
What are leuko tapes?
Leukotape is an elastic and therapeutic tape similar to a compression bandage. It is used in particular as part of therapies focussing on the treatment of chronic pain. Leukotape also offers help with joint and ligament disorders or problems with the ankle joint. The tape is latex-free and therefore both breathable and skin-friendly. It is also frequently used for muscle injuries and in trauma surgery and sports medicine. In the case of trauma, they can be used to reduce swelling and alleviate pain. To achieve the required effect, it is necessary to apply the tape particularly firmly - only for a short time. The tape is also ideal for athletes to prevent re-injuries to already damaged areas of the body or to avoid jeopardising the healing process.
Thanks to its many positive effects on the body, Leukotape is one of the most frequently used tapes. It adheres securely and reliably - whether directly to the skin or to other dressing materials. The tape ensures optimum adhesion even under heavy loads, especially as it is water and dirt repellent.
