Summary
Taping: does it really help patients with shoulder pain, or is it just a brightly coloured placebo? In this thought-provoking episode of the Physio Edge Shoulder Success Podcast, Jo Gibson, upper limb rehab specialist at Rehab for Performance, unpacks the complexities of taping in shoulder rehabilitation. Drawing from the latest evidence and her extensive experience with shoulder pain, Jo shares two compelling case studies and whether taping was useful in the treatment of: Volleyball player post-stabilisation surgery – Despite passing all return-to-play criteria, this patient struggled with fear of re-injury in specific positions. C/Sp referred shoulder pain – Severe neck and shoulder pain with difficulty sleeping left this patient guarding every movement. Learn whether taping played a role in this patient's rehab. Jo examines the evidence behind taping, addressing key questions: Does tape improve biomechanics, or are the effects purely psychological? How do sensory input and contextual factors influence patient outcomes? Can taping be a useful temporary tool, or is it overrated? You'll also gain insights into: The importance of clinical reasoning when choosing adjuncts like taping. How to manage patient beliefs and expectations around interventions. Practical applications of taping to improve confidence and support movement strategies.
