More than 4 million Dutch people suffer from hay fever; approximately 20% of the population. The symptoms usually start in the spring due to the pollen of trees, grasses and plants. The human body automatically forms antibodies against pollen, but in people with hay fever symptoms the body reacts very strongly. There is a kind of overreaction of the immune system.
Medical tape does not contain any medicinal additives, yet two inventories (pilot in 2016 and 2017) show that by applying Medical Taping to hay fever complaints, 84% of the complaints are relieved!
The lungs and the immune system play an important role in hay fever. The lung zones are mainly located at the top of the back. By applying the elastic medical tape directly to this area, the tape stimulates the skin sensors, which in turn stimulate the nervous system. This stimulus has a calming effect on the immune system, which reduces the hay fever complaints.
Our therapists are specially trained to be able to apply the Medical Taping Concept properly for an optimal result. It is important for the tape to work properly that you start taping on time and not in the middle of the season. We will usually have to apply the tape three or four times. Applying the tape only takes 20 minutes.
