Kinesio Taping & Strapping Methods

I use the Kinesio taping and strapping methods along side other therapy techniques. Kinesio tape when applied correctly can provide the following physiological effects:

 

  • Relieves pain
  • Supports muscles in movement
  • Removes lymphatic fluid congestion
  • Corrects joint mis-alignment
  • Assists in positioning a muscle or joint into proper position for rehabilitation
  • Assists a weak muscle by placing it in a normal position
  • Improves kinesthetic awareness of posture and alignment

 

Kinesio Taping's key differentiator is its ability to aid the lymphatic and muscle systems. For many, the Kinesio Taping® applications are a major breakthrough which substantially reduce recovery times and improve fitness levels.

 

Kinesio Taping will allow full range of movement of the joint involved so can be worn easily in competition and training. It is not bulky and is usually not noticeable once on. It can be left on for up to 5 days. Please contact me to see how Kinesio can help you and to discuss your specific case.
