Kinesio Taping is a technique designed to promote the body’s natural healing process. The method uses a uniquely designed and patented tape, Kinesio Tex Tape, for treatment of muscular disorders and lymphedema reduction.
The tape is applied over and around muscles to reduce pain and inflammation, to relax overused, tired muscles and to support muscles in movement on a 24-hour-per-day basis. The elasticity of the tape mimics that of the human muscle, allowing a complete range of motion, while its ability to “lift” the skin promotes increased circulation. This combination assists in the rehabilitation and prevention of injuries.
