Kinesiology Tape
We use the best tape and taping methods available. Our kinesiology tape is great for sports injuries and pain. We also have taping methods that are great for the prevention of injuries. Our Doctors of Chiropractic are highly trained and certified in the tape and application methods. It is important to have kinesiology tape applied by a trained professional to prevent skin blistering and other complications.
The tape we use is:
- Water resistant
- Non-restrictive - allowing full joint range of motion
- Latex free
How does it work?
Athletic tape helps to lift the skin away from the muscle and underlying fascia. This helps to create a decompressive effect that relieves swelling and increases awareness of body positions. An increased awareness of body positions is important in maintaining proper posture and form.

- upper and lower extremity pain
- shin splints
- plantar fasciitis
- runner’s knee
