K-Taping

Kinesiology taping (KT)s a therapeutic tool that speeds up recovery from injury and improves fitness. It is a coloured tape that is applied on both the injury site and nearby lymphatic system and assists in both prevention and treatment of injuries.  We use it as an adjunct to treatment to help alleviate pain and improve the healing in soft tissues. There are many proposed benefits to K Tape, including: proprioceptive facilitation, reduced muscle fatigue, muscle facilitation, reduced delayed-onset muscle soreness, pain inhibition, enhanced healing. Taping provides support for injured tissues, reduces oedema, improves lymphatic drainage and increases circulation.
