Whether you're an athlete seeking improved athletic performance or an individual recovering from an injury, our skilled practitioners are here to guide you through the transformative effects of Kinesiology (muscle) and joint taping.

​

Kinesiology Taping is a non-invasive, rehabilitative technique that involves the application of elastic tape to specific areas of the body. Developed to support muscles and ligaments, the tape is designed to mimic the elasticity of human skin, allowing for a full range of motion while providing structural support. The tape lifts the skin, creating space between the dermis and muscles, which helps in reducing inflammation and promoting better circulation. The tape's flexibility allows it to support muscles and joints without restricting movement, aiding in the rehabilitation process and improving overall function.

​

In contrast, joint taping involves the application of firmer tape to specific joints, to give support and protection to weak joints during rehabilitation. The tape can be used instead of joint braces/supports, especially towards the end of recovery.

 

The benefits of muscle and joint taping include:

​

• Pain Relief: Kinesiology Taping can help alleviate pain by providing support to injured or strained muscles and joints, promoting proper alignment and reducing stress on affected areas.

• Enhanced Performance: Sport and gym goers often use Kinesiology Taping to improve performance by providing support to muscles and joints, reducing fatigue, and enhancing proprioception (awareness of body position).

• Injury Prevention: By stabilizing joints and supporting muscles, Kinesiology Taping can contribute to preventing injuries, especially during strenuous physical activities or sports.

• Improved Circulation: The tape's application facilitates better blood circulation and lymphatic drainage, promoting faster recovery and reducing swelling.

• Posture Correction: Kinesiology Taping can be used to encourage proper alignment and posture, helping individuals maintain a more balanced and ergonomic body position.

• Flexibility and Range of Motion: The tape's elastic nature allows for a full range of motion, making it an excellent tool for rehabilitation exercises and enhancing flexibility
