Kinesiology Tape
EACH PATIENT WILL HAVE THEIR OWN CUSTOMIZED PLAN OF CARE BASED ON THEIR IMPAIRMENTS, DEFICITS, AND GOALS TO RETURN TO NORMAL ACTIVITY
HOW KINESIOLOGY TAPE WORKS
Kinesiology tape is a therapeutic tape that's applied strategically to the body to provide support, lessen pain, reduce swelling, and improve performance. Each patient will have their own customized plan of care based on their impairments, deficits, and goals to return to normal activity. We will also incorporate stretching and strengthening to support your recovery.
HEALTH BENEFITS OF KINESIOLOGY TAPE
Kinesiology tape lifts the skin slightly, creating microscopic space between the skin and the tissues below. This helps alleviate pain, reduce inflammation, and support muscles and joints without restricting range of motion. It is highly beneficial for both acute injuries and chronic conditions, aiding in faster recovery and better biomechanics.
TAPING FREQUENCY
The tape can typically be worn for 3-5 days per application, providing continuous therapeutic benefits even while showering or swimming. It is often applied during your regular physical therapy visits to support the progress made during your session.
