These results are not subtle with significant improvement with both KT Tape and instrument assisted soft tissue mobilization, such as Hawkgrips.
The results of this study highlight why I have been using both techniques combined to help maximize patient recovery and athletic performance for decades

Recently, I have had the honor of working with a military recruit who I not only treat their injuries, but focus on training and performance. Last night we did a hike in the rain and dark through the forest.  I hiked the 1st mile with him so I can get a gauge on his pace to calculate what time I needed to meet him for his final mile. He didn't know how long he was hiking. When I caught up with him, he was well ahead of pace, carrying a pack and wasn't even using a flashlight or headlamp. Way to exceed expectations and exude last night that you're the toughest thing in the forest.
