Densification vs. Fibrosis
Fibrosis • Similar to the process of scarring, with the deposition of excessive
amounts of fibrous connective tissue, reflective of a reparative or reactive process. It can obliterate architecture and function of the involved tissue.... If there is alteration of collagen fibrous bundles, the term fascial fibrosis is the term of choice
A. Birbrair
Densification • Indicates an increase in the density of fascia. This is able to modify the
mechanical proprieties of fascia, without altering its general structure.... If there is only an alteration of the loose connective tissue, the term fascial densification is preferred

Dr. Geoffrey Bove • “It’s all about the interfaces”
• Interfaces are essentially the fascial planes between muscles, nerves, fascia, etc..
• Lack of gliding is the enemy
• Positive treatment effects are at the loose connective tissue and not in the fascia
• Early intervention is the key

Meta-analysis Focused on Pain
Choo Wyn Lim et al, BJSM, 2015
Conclusion: 1. KT is superior to minimal intervention for pain relief. 2. KT as an adjunct is beneficial in pain relief
36
Superior Pain Relief
Choo Wyn Lim et al, BJSM, 2015
Conclusion: 1. Research is telling us that
when used without other interventions, outcomes are good!
2. KT should be used as an
adjunct for treatment
37 Choo Wyn Lim et al, BJSM, 2015
Treat it, tape it, train it
Conclusion: significant improvement when combining tape with
corrective exercise interventions.
38
Pain & ROM
Conclusion: 1.Immediately reduce the threat
of pain 2.The therapeutic KT group
showed immediate improvement in pain-free shoulder abduction
3.These studies are small, but
important to the consumer
39
Pain & ROM
Conclusion:
Patients with acute WAD
receiving KT
exhibited statistically
significant improvements
immediately following
application and at 24-hour
follow-up.
40
Pain and Position Sense
Conclusion: The results showed there was significant difference between no tape and KT for PFP group during descending stairs. K taping can reduce pain and improve the ratio of VMO/VL for the mechanism of patellar stability

Hilton’s Law 1863
“The same trunks of nerves whose branches supply the groups of muscles moving a joint furnish also a distribution of nerves to the skin over the insertions of the same muscles; and - what at this moment more especially merits our attention - the interior of the joint receives its nerves from the same source.”
