Kinesiology Taping
-
Rock Tape, Kinesiology tape, or KT tape improves circulation and helps to cue and stimulate muscles' propioception.
-
When the tape is applied, there is a microscopic lifting, or decompressing, between the skin, fascial, and muscle layers.
-
This lifting allows for increased blood flow and lymphatic flow, disperses swelling more quickly, and decreases pain signals.
-
-
In addition to decompression, taping stimulates and potentiates proprioception. This allows the muscles to function more properly, thus, optimizing performance, delaying muscle fatigue, and decreasing the risk of injury.
-
Tape can also be utilized in the case of injury, especially to decrease pain and swelling.
-
Taping can also normalize muscle tone and muscle activation patterns--taping can stimulate dormant muscles and relax overactive muscles. This enables for effective postural corrections and rehabilitation as well as accelerated healing.
-
In combination with other therapies such as chiropractic, acupuncture, massage, cupping, etc., taping is even more effective--creating a synergistic effect.
-
Taping is available as a stand-alone treatment or as a complement to another therapy.
