Pain Reduction

By lifting the skin, kinesioTape decompresses the underlying tissues, which can alleviate discomfort by altering pain signals to the brain.

Enhance circulation

The tape’s application improves blood and lymphatic flow, aiding in the reduction of swelling and inflammation.

Flexible Support

Unlike rigid tapes, KinesioTape provides support to muscles and joints while allowing a full range of motion, facilitating natural movement during recovery.

Boost Proprioception

The tactile stimulation from KinesioTape enhances body awareness, which can lead to better movement patterns and potentially reduce the risk of injury
