Kinesio taping

Kinesio Taping is designed to be flexible and stretchy, allowing for a full range of motion while providing support to the affected area. The tape is made of a cotton material that is hypoallergenic and can be worn for several days without causing irritation to the skin.

​

The technique works by providing support and  proprioceptive feedback to the body, which helps to improve muscle function, reduce pain, and support healing. When the tape is applied to the skin, it creates a lifting effect that helps to improve blood flow and reduce inflammation in the affected area. This can help to reduce pain and swelling and promote healing of the injured tissues

​

Kinesio taping is used in conjunction with osteopathic techniques where suitable.
