Q: What is Kinesiology Taping?
A:Read More
Kinesiology Taping (often called K-Taping) is a therapeutic taping method that uses a special elastic tape to support muscles, joints, and fascia — without restricting natural movement. Unlike rigid athletic tape, kinesiology tape mimics the skin’s elasticity, allowing full range of motion while providing gentle, continuous stimulation to the skin and underlying tissues. 🧠 Nervous System: The tape sends sensory signals to the brain, helping to reduce pain and improve muscle control. 🩹 Skin: It gently lifts the skin, reducing pressure and stimulating mechanoreceptors that improve pain and movement. 🧬 Fascia: It helps release tension in the fascia, improving tissue glide and flexibility. 💧 Circulation & Lymphatics: The lifting effect improves blood and lymphatic flow, reducing swelling and inflammation. ✅ Reduces pain and swelling Kinesiology taping is safe, comfortable, and effective — whether for recovery, pain relief, or performance enhancement.How It Works: The Key Mechanisms
