Kinesiology Taping

Kinesiology Taping is a rehabilitative technique that involves applying elastic therapeutic tape to the skin to support muscles and joints without restricting movement. It works by lifting the skin, which creates a small space between the tissue and muscles underneath, improving blood circulation and lymphatic drainage. This method helps reduce pain, inflammation, and muscle fatigue, enhancing physical performance and recovery.

Kinesiology tape is made from a stretchable cotton fabric with an acrylic adhesive, designed to mimic the elasticity of human skin. It is commonly used in sports medicine, physical therapy, and orthopedics to treat a variety of conditions, including sprains, strains, and overuse injuries. The tape can be applied in various patterns and tensions to target specific muscles, joints, or ligaments, facilitating functional movement while providing neuromuscular feedback and proprioceptive input.
