Depending on the taping technique used, Kinesio tape can perform many different functions. It can improve lymphatic drainage by tractioning the skin, providing pain relief while decreasing swelling and bruising.

​

When applied along a muscle, it can facilitate the muscle’s contraction, thereby improving posture or altering a movement pattern to restore pain-free function. The kinesio tape can even provide joint stability by applying it to the muscles surrounding the target joint.

​

Kinesio taping is one of the many tools we use to treat, educate and empower our patients. When the use of the tape proves effective for a particular case, our therapists educate the patient on self-application to provide them with autonomy and the ability to perform symptom management independently.

 

There is a reason why countless professional athletes from all sports rely on kinesio tape to stay in the game!
