Kinesiotaping

This unique approach aims to enhance musculoskeletal health and reduce injury risk by supporting muscles and joints through elastic tape application. Book your appointment today to discover the benefits of Kinesiotaping.

Kinesiotaping Techniques for Injury Prevention

Kinesiotaping offers a unique approach to enhancing musculoskeletal health by supporting muscles and joints through elastic tape application.

This technique allows full movement range while reducing pain, inflammation, and improving circulation. It's especially advantageous for conditions such as muscle strains, joint sprains, and tendonitis. The tape's lifting effect on the skin enhances sensory feedback, thereby improving awareness of joint positioning and muscle activity. Suitable for all ages, kinesiotaping acts preventively for injury avoidance or as part of post-surgical recovery.

While self-application is possible, professional application ensures effectiveness and strategic placement, maximizing outcomes. Book an appointment to explore how kinesiotaping can benefit you today.

Benefits of Kinesiotaping

Enhanced Mobility

Kinesiotape produces a physical decompression effect on the skin and tissues beneath it, and stimulates the sensory receptors which are sending signals back to your central nervous system. This in turn effects the movement responses, as well as the pain perceived, of the taped area. In combination, these mechanisms allow for a reduction in pain and swelling, which allows for an improvement of the range and quality of movement.

Pain Reduction

Kinesiotape is typically applied directly to the area of injury, which stimulates the sensory receptors found in the injured tissues. The sensory information is processed more rapidly than the pain signals from the area of injury. In other words, you feel the tape to a greater degree than your pain, which allows for a reduced perception of pain.

Enhanced Recovery

Improved Joint Stability

The elastic nature of Kinesiotape lifts the skin away from the underlying fascia which houses the blood, lymph vessels and nerves. This lifting effect allows more blood to flow into the injured area, thereby accelerating recovery and repair, and also allows lymph fluid to drain more easily from the area, thus decreasing inflammation.

Kinesiotape can be used to stabilize the injured area without limiting blood flow or range of motion, providing assistance to the muscles as they recover. The application is geared toward providing enough support to help mitigate pain, but also increase blood flow while maintaining range of motion. Improved stability helps to decrease the risk of further injury of the area, avoiding ongoing or worsening symptoms.
