Kinesio Taping

If you live an active lifestyle, you run the risk of pulling muscles or being injured in some way. Athletes are especially at risk for this due to the stress and strain they put their bodies through during training and while they are competing. Kinesio taping is a popular treatment method used by both athletes and chiropractors to treat a pulled muscle or protect against triggering a past injury. It can be used during the healing and recovery period as well as during exercise to prevent injury.

What Is Kinesio Tape?

Kinesio taping uses a soft, yet durable, latex-free kinesio tape that can be worn throughout the day. This technique can be used as both a treatment method as well as a training tool. Chiropractors often use it because it helps support and stabilize both the muscles as well as the skeletal structure. Athletes use Kinesio taping while they are training and when they are competing. This strengthens the muscles and stabilizes the connective tissue and can help to reduce your risk of injury.

How It Works

The Kinesio tape supports the bones and connective tissues by holding the soft tissues in place around them. The tape can manipulate the soft tissues so that they stay in place during both exercise and the healing process. Because the tape is so soft and flexible, it moves with the body without restricting the joint's range of motion. This allows for complete freedom of movement during your day to day activities. With fewer restrictions, you are more likely to heal much faster as your body becomes stronger.

Treating Sports Injuries

Athletic injuries take time to heal properly. Once healing has started, it's important for athletes to remain strong and active. By using Kinesio taping during the treatment process, the musculoskeletal system is able to heal as it becomes stronger. Continuing the use of Kinesio taping after your chiropractic treatment has been completed will reduce the risk of re-injuring the area during training. The tape is so lightweight and flexible, it can even be used during the game/competition.
