Department of Musculoskeletal Physiotherapy of St. Andrews College of Physiotherapy organized “The Basic Clinical Taping Techniques workshop” on 22nd and 23rd March 2024. Taping is commonly used as an adjunct or temporary technique.  Some of the goals with taping are to restrict the movement of injured joints, soft tissue compression to reduce swelling, support anatomical structures, and as protection from re-injury. Taping is used as one of the means of rehabilitation or prophylaxis in instances where support and stability are needed, as a first-aid tool, for the prevention of injury and protection of an injured anatomical structure while healing is taking place. The Basic Clinical Taping Techniques workshop was conducted by Dr. Mahesh Mitra. He provided attendees with a comprehensive understanding of taping techniques and their applications in clinical settings. The workshop aimed to equip participants with practical skills and theoretical knowledge to effectively incorporate taping techniques into their therapeutic practices.
