Kinesio Taping

Kinesio Tape is a uniquely designed elastic tape that enhances muscular, joint and circulatory function. It works by taping around or over muscles with the intent to either relax an overused muscle or facilitate a weakened muscle. It also helps to correct joint alignment and by improving the lymphatic flow, it aids in muscle recovery.

Benefits include:

• It is breathable, water resistant and latex free.
• It can be worn 24 hours a day for 3-5 days.
• It is safe for use on paediatric and geriatric populations.
• Great for rehabilitative therapy
• Works with the body to allow full range of movement (ROM) and maintain flexibility while still restoring maximal strength to a muscle.
• It is effective treatment between professional visits

In addition to the common sporting injuries seen on elite sporting stars (rotator cuff, tennis elbow, ankle sprains, knee injuries), Kinesio Tape has been effectively used to manage lower back pain, carpal tunnel syndrome, whiplash and lymphoedema.
