Kinesio Tape

If you have been watching any sports on TV lately, you would have seen an athlete using Kinesio Tape. Kinesio Tape is a waterproof, latex free, heat activated, full range of motion tape. It is designed to treat soft tissue injuries. The therapeutic benefit depends on the tension and line of stress applied to the tape by the practitioner. Kinesio Tape can treat anything from acute low back strains to carpal tunnel and tennis elbow. Best of all, unlike athletic tape, Kinesio Tape does not interfere with your range of motion, and it can be worn in water. Like most therapeutic modalities, you must look for a certified provider. Lucky for you, Dr. Matt at Tubbs Chiropractic has obtained certification and is proficient in all Kinesio Tape Methods.
