The Kinesio Taping Method is a taping techinque designed to
facilitate the body's natural healing process. It provides support and
stability to muscles and joints without restricting the body's range of
motion. It also provides extended soft tissue manipulation to prolong
the benefits of your chiropractic therapy.
The
tape is latex-free and made to be wearable for days at a time. The
tape is safe for all patients, and can treat a variety of
musculoskeletal conditions. The technique alleviates pain and
facilitates lymphatic drainage by microscopically lifting the skin.
This lifting allows for a decrease in inflammation of the affected area.
Kinesio
Tape is specifically applied to the patient based upon the patient's
needs after evaluation. The tape may be applied using "I", "X", "Y", or
other specialized shapes. The direction and amount of stretch placed
on the tape also affects the tapes ability to reduce pain and
inflamation, enhance performance, prevent injury, and promote good
circulation and healing.
