Kinesio Taping Therapy

What is Kinesio Taping?

Kinesio Taping is a specialized therapeutic technique using elastic cotton tape applied to the skin to support muscles, joints, and ligaments — without limiting mobility. It’s widely used in sports, injury rehabilitation, and postural correction.

At Physio Absolute, we use certified Kinesio Taping techniques to reduce pain, improve function, and accelerate recovery for a variety of conditions.

Benefits of Kinesio Taping

• Reduces pain and inflammation
• Improves circulation and lymphatic drainage
• Supports injured muscles or joints
• Enhances posture and alignment
• Boosts muscle performance and recovery
• Aids in injury prevention

Conditions We Treat with Kinesio Tape

• Muscle strains and ligament sprains
• Sports injuries (ankle sprain, shoulder instability, etc.)

• Neck and lower back pain
• Frozen shoulder
• Tennis elbow or golfer’s elbow
• Plantar fasciitis and heel pain
• Post-surgical support
• Poor posture and spinal alignment issues

How It Works

Kinesio Tape is applied over the affected muscles or joints using specific patterns and tension levels to achieve therapeutic goals:

• Lifts the skin slightly, reducing pressure and improving blood flow
• Re-educates neuromuscular pathways
• Relieves pressure on pain receptors
• Enhances joint stability and movement awareness
