Contrary to traditional athletic taping, this therapeutic taping is applied strategically to the body to lessen pain, reduce swelling, improve performance, and provide support without limiting movement.
Kinesio Tape is an extremely elastic tape that mimics human skin. It provides support for joints and muscles to aid in pain management, soft tissue injury, tissue and joint malalignment, and more. Because it’s latex free and made with hypoallergenic dyes, it’s safe for most people with sensitive skin. Plus, it can be worn for several days, and takes less than ten minutes to dry after being wet—making it an effective therapy option for athletes, runners, individuals with muscle or joint injuries, and even pregnant women!

We’re glad you asked! Before we get started, we’ll have you obtain a detailed health history from your doctor or therapist. During our first consultation, we’ll start by getting to know you—any health-related problems, needs, concerns, goals, and more. From there, we’ll perform an examination, do tests, and develop a working diagnosis. Depending on your condition, we usually start treatment right away! Together, we’ll create a management plan and monitor your progress, so you can get back to doing what you love most.
