Kinesio taping is a rehabilitative technique that involves the application of flexible, elastic tape to provide support and stability to muscles and joints without restricting movement. It can aid in muscle function, improve circulation, and reduce pain and inflammation. The tape’s unique properties allow it to mimic the elasticity of human skin, exerting a gentle pulling force on the body, which can help with repositioning of joints and easing muscle tension. Kinesio taping is often used in physical therapy to manage a range of conditions, including sports injuries, muscle imbalances, and postural alignment issues.
