Kinesiology Therapeutic (KT) tape is used to support and relieve pain in muscles, joints, and/or ligaments. It reduces swelling, increases mobility and enhances recovery. Just as many of the other services we offer, kinesiology taping can be used to prevent or treat many muscle and joint related injuries. For many years this taping has been typically used in sports to benefit the athletes. Recently it has been more widely understood to help and benefit people in all aspects of daily life.

during injury blood and fluids build up causing inflammation and swelling, if there is too much swelling, it halts recovery. When the tape is properly applied the elasticity gently lifts the skin creating space for increased blood flow, and benefiting the area with the added oxygen and nutrients.
