Kinesiology Taping

Kinesiology taping is a technique used at Fit Chiropractic & Acupuncture to treat and prevent various injuries. In this type of taping, an elastic band is applied to specific areas of the body that can relieve pain, inhibit inflammation and support muscles. The tape lifts the skin away from the underlying tissues, improving circulation and lymphatic drainage.

Kinesiology taping is often used in sports medicine to treat common conditions such as sprains, strains and overuse injuries. It can be applied before or after an activity and worn for several days. Overall, kinesiology taping has proven to be a safe and effective non-invasive method for numerous musculoskeletal problems.
