Kinesio tape is used to support the muscles and relieve joints, tendons and ligaments and is used for back pain, joint pain, tension headaches and neuropathic pain, as well as for muscular and visceral pain syndromes. It is applied to the neck, back, knees, shoulders or other parts of the body, where it takes effect.

The application of Kinesio Tape can be learned in a very short time, so that courses are offered for as little as one day.

Kinesio tape is made of elastic cotton fabric with a special acrylic adhesive that is extremely breathable, water-resistant and durable, so that it can remain in place for several days or weeks. The taping acts like a micro-massage on the muscles and lymphatic system and stimulates energy circulation. By improving arterial supply and venous drainage, a high level of pain relief can be achieved and restricted movement can be eliminated. Taping relieves the strain on ligaments, tendons and muscles and relieves and promotes movement in the joints.
