Kinesiology Taping

Kinesiology tape is a stretchable fabric tape that can be applied to provide support, decrease swelling and edema, and to facilitate or inhibit certain muscle groups. Because it is flexible and light weight, kinesiology tape does not restrict movement and allows for continued movement through the healing process. There are many different conditions taping can be beneficial for and it is suitable for use throughout the average day and well as during exercise and athletic events.

Our clinic uses Rock Tape, a brand of kinesiology tape that can be worn for 3 to 5 days and may be worn in water. We also use hypoallergenic versions of kinesiology tape to make sure those with sensitive skin can also benefit from taping.
