Kinesio Taping



The Kinesio Taping Method has been around since 1973 and is continuing to evolve.

 

About the Tape

-Mimics the qualities of the skin.
-Designed to stretch and last up to 5 days.
- The thickness of the tape is approximately the same as the skin.
- No latex in the tape.
- Water and sweat resistant.
- Darker colors; pink and black absorb more light, slightly increasing the temperature under the tape; blue and tan slightly decrease the temperature.

 

Six Current Corrective Techniques

- Mechanical - provide stimulation in the desired area through the stretch of the tape.
- Fascia - holds or aligns tissue in a desired position
- Space - reduces inflammation, pain, swelling or edema
- Ligament/Tendon - increase stimulation over the ligament or tendon
- Lymphatic - decrease pressure
- Functional - limit or assist motion

 

It's not just for athletic injuries. It can also help with:
- Myofascial Low Back Pain
- Elbow Tendonitis (tennis elbow)
- Carpal Tunnel Syndrome
- Hamstring Strain
- Plantar Fasciitis
- Bursitis
- Tendonitis
- Shin Splints
