Mostly it seems to be a relatively new product, Kinesio Tape.  NPR News wrote a story on its efficacy earlier this week. The news article linked to a 2012 study in Sports Medicine and  a 2008 article in Journal of Orthopaedic and Sports Physical Therapy; both are available to LSUHSC Library patrons.
