Taping and Kinesio Taping
Taping is a therapeutic technique that involves applying specialized adhesive strips to the skin to enhance joint stability, support muscle movement, and reduce pain. This technique works by relieving pressure on injured tissues, improving joint mobility, and increasing the range of motion. Additionally, it promotes blood circulation and lymphatic drainage.
Taping for Injury Prevention
Provides firm support to stabilize joints, reduce movement, and prevent sprains or strains during physical activities.
Pain Relief & Swelling Reduction
Lifts the skin to improve blood flow, ease pressure on pain receptors, and help reduce inflammation and muscle soreness.
Kinesio Taping for Muscle Support
Enhances circulation, reduces pain, and supports muscles while allowing full range of motion for recovery and performance.
Long-Lasting & Comfortable Wear
Breathable, waterproof, and stretchable design ensures durability and comfort, lasting for days even during activities.
