Kinesiology Taping

Goal

Kinesiology taping is a technique that involves the application of a special elastic tape onto the skin to provide support, stability, and therapeutic benefits to muscles, joints, and other soft tissues.

The tape is designed to mimic the properties of human skin in terms of elasticity and thickness and help:

- Support muscle and joints
- Reduce pain and inflammation
- Improve performance and recovery
- Correct postural alignment


What's involved?

This includes a subjective assessment through conversation and a physical examination to evaluate posture, range of motion, muscle imbalances, and areas of pain or tenderness.

The assessment helps the therapist understand the client's needs, identify areas of focus, and develop a personalised treatment plan.

Process

Based on the assessment findings, a tailored program will be created to address your individual needs, lifestyle, and fitness objectives. This program will include a hands-on massage and a home management plan to:

- Reduce pain
- Improved range of motion
- Increase strength
- Enhance functional mobility
