It also provides support when you are in training or require help with arthritic conditions. Even headaches, menstrual clamps and sinusitis can be treated by taping!

Whether or not you've already had experience with taping, this book will clearly show you the extensive range of possibilities for taping yourself. With a little practice, you'll be astonished by just how effective and simple taping can be! And you don't have to be an athlete to take advantage of its wide-reaching benefits.
