Understanding and Using:
NSM
(Neurosensory / Structural / Microcirculatory)
Approach to Kinesiology Tape Application to
Improve Patient Outcomes
Marcia Hamilton, MSHS, OTR/L, BCP, NSTP-1
Note:
Knowledge presented today is based on learning that occurred
over both 5 years of experience using kinesiology tape in subacute care and through the certification process of the
Neurosensory / Structural / Microcirculatory (NSM) methodology,
a 16-hour course providing a curriculum forming the basis of
understanding the Neurosensory and Structural and
Microcirculatory uses and applications of kinesiology tape.
NSM course dates and locations can be found under the
Education tab of SpiderTech.com

What is Kinesiology Tape
Kinesiology tape is a cotton, elastic, lightweight therapeutic tape that
has many applications for improving function in rehabilitation. Dr. Kenzo
Kase, Chiropractor invented the tape in the 1970s.
Characteristics of this tape are:
 Made of cotton with fibers allowing for increased airflow and
evaporation. Hypoallergenic.
 Unidirectional elasticity with 140% longitudinal stretch, similar to
skin.
 Heat activated, water resistant
 Other names; Spider Tech Taping, Elastic Therapeutic Taping,
MyoFascial Taping, Elastic Rehabilitative Taping, KT Kinesiology Tape,
Neuro Muscular Taping and Neurostructural Taping.

What is the science behind it?
Kinesiology: Knowledge of muscle movement, force vectors
and the relationship to the rest of the body systems.
Biomechanics: Providing support to a joint that through gentle
compression allows the joint to move through full AROM.
Enabling movement to heal.
Neurosensory:
Neurophysiology of Pain
Nociception
Neuromuscular Plasticity
What types of theories exist about kinesiology
tape?
• I. Original Model: Convolutions, Skin Lifting, Proprioception, OriginInsertion direction.
• II. Fascia Models
• A. Fascia/biotensegrity
• B. Anatomy trains
III. Skin (brain) model
A. Dermatomes/segmental taping
B. Entrapment cutaneous nerves
IV. Energy Model
Meridians and acupuncture points
(deRu Ba, 2012)
NSM Model, Application and Clinical
Reasoning:
• Evidence led approach taking into account structural and
neural influence of the tape on the body.
• Application techniques are based on clinical objectives:
• Neurosensory:
• Pain modulation, nociception, neuroplasticity
• Structural: Support an unstable joint, Postural Support
• Microcirculatory::
• Accessing the lymphatic system
Why use a NSM Taping Approach?
Decrease pain
Decrease nociceptive influence of the CNS: based on theory of
sensory gating.
Restore muscle activation and normalization of muscle tone.
Restore and improve range of motion.
Promote a faster rate of healing.
(Jardine, 2012)
Important reasons for using the NSM
Taping Methodology
In conclusion there are many different theories and ways to apply
tape, however the NSM taping method provides:
• A frame of reference, that is reflective of research and pertinent
scientific discovery.
• A curriculum aligned with the frame of reference.
• A curriculum that aligns with occupational therapy frames of
reference, (Sensory Integrative, NDT, Open system models of
occupational performance- MOHO, EHP, PEOM)
• Ongoing therapist education and support
• Ongoing patient education and support.
• Convenient pre-cut patterns increase and optimize patient success
for using tape.

Occupational Therapy Frames of Reference in
relation to NSM Application
Frame of Reference
Use of Kinesiology Tape:
• Biomechanical
• Remediate loss of motion, strength, endurance,
edema, pain
• Sensory Integrative
• Adaptive responses will occur through integration
of multiple sensory systems. The brain will seek
stimulation to organize itself. The CNS has
plasticity. Activity is easier to engage in when
there is a sense of emotional security.
• Neurodevelopmental
• Scapular/Pelvic stability, trunk and neck control
are prerequisites for limb mobility. Normalization
of muscle tone can be achieved by various
techniques such as breaking up synergy, inhibition
of reflexes, weight shifting and reciprocal
movement.
More Frames of Reference:
Frame of Reference
• Model of Human Occupation
(MOHO):
• Ecology of Human
Performance, (EHP):
• Rehabilitative:
Use of NSM Taping Methodology
to support client-centered change
• Promote engagement in occupations
that restore, reorganize or maintain
their motivation, patterning and
performance capacity, affecting
occupational lives. This will occur
through providing opportunities for
the person to themselves accomplish
their own change.
• Establish/Restore, Alter, Adapt,
Prevent , Create intervention
strategies to improve performance
• Strategies to enable the greatest
amount of independence in
meaningful occupations.

Understanding Pain and making clinical
decisions:
Types of Pain:
• Cramping, dull, aching; Muscle
• Sharp, shooting: Nerve Root
• Burning, pressure-like, stinging; Sympathetic nerve
• Deep,sharp,severe; fracture
• Throbbing, diffuse; Vascular
Sympathetic Nervous System Response:
• Response can be visualized in fascia
• Our goal is to calm the nervous system and reduce the stress
Mechanisms of Action of NSM Taping:
Mechano-disruption: Physical distortion of tissue causes firing
of neural signals to CNS
Mechano-transduction: Mechanical stimulus is converted into
bioelectrical or biochemical signals
Mechano-corrective: Structural restraint of potentially
harmful positions.
( Jardine &Tsaggarelis, 2012)
Categories of Therapeutic Effect of NSM Taping:
Psychological: conscious kinesthetic awareness
Neurosensory: Inhibition of nociceptive pain impulses
Structural: provides support to weak or lax joints.
Microcirculatory: Tissue repair, tissue flow, tissue adaptation

Anatomy of the skin and fascia:
http://true.massageresearch.com/2013/06/fascia-andreflexology.html
Understanding the importance of fascia; (fascia can be
considered to be all collagenous soft connective tissues)
Fascia is now known to be a 3-D network of fibrous, dynamic, gluey
and wet proteins that hold our bodies together and at the same time
enables them to move. (Day, Copetti, Rucli, 2012, Lockwood,1991)
Understanding fascia can begin with the embryogenesis of the
musculoskeletal system, (Day, Copetti, Rucli, 2012)
Recently termed as a “biomechanical regulatory system”,
(http://anatomy trains.com).
Consists of:
•Superficial fascia- mostly adipose
•Deep fascia- (epimysium, perimysium, endomysium)

The Deltoid:
• Attaches, (origin) around spine of scapula and clavicle forming
a “V’. (Same as insertion of trapezius).
• Three segments: anterior, middle and posterior
• All fibers: AB/duct the GHJ
• Anterior: Extend, laterally rotate and horizontal AD/duct
• Posterior: Extend GHJ, laterally rotate GHJ, horizontal AB/duct
Involved in most functional movement of the shoulder.

Downward rotate the scapula
• R. Major: Origin is T2-T5

Muscles of the Shoulder
The Triceps and its Role in Shoulder Stability:
• The triceps brachii is the only muscle located on the posterior
surface of the arm and is responsible for extending the elbow
and shoulder. It serves as the antagonist to the biceps brachii.
As the name indicates there are three heads;
• Long head: Origin is infraglenoid tubercle of the scapula
• Lateral head: Posterior surface of proximal half of the humerus
• Medial head: Posterior half of the distal half of the humerus
All three insert on the olecranon process.
The Triceps;
Biceps and Coracobrachialis

Kinesiology
Kinesiology is the study of movement incorporating anatomy,
physiology, physics, geometry as it relates to movement.
In fact, neuromuscular physiology, musculoskeletal anatomy
and mechanics are used to understand movement, both
generally and specifically.

Kinesiology Tape Application
Spider Tech offers comprehensive instructional videos on
their web-site. NSM Application videos are good for both
practitioners and patients:
SpiderTech Educational Videos:
Lower Back
Knee
Shoulder
Elbow
Microcirculatory
Thinking outside of the pattern:
Using clinical reasoning, palpation, knowledge of neural
responses, lymphatic system and kinesiology don’t be afraid to
try something different:
•Using a hip spider to provide stabilization of GHJ and prevent
scapular winging.
•Use more than one application, for example low back and hip,
shoulder and elbow.
Precautions:
Never apply to burned or open skin
Take care with the geriatric and pediatric population , due to
fragile skin. There is a “sensitive skin’ variety. Use SpiderTech
Gentle
Do not remove when wet.
 If pain increases remove.
 Watch for creases in tape.
 Remove if excessively itchy
Avoid applying over large blood vessels, particularly jugular
vein and carotid artery, under axilla.
