KINESIO TAPING Therapy in Whitesboro, Texas

Kinesio Taping is a therapeutic technique in physical therapy that involves applying specially designed elastic tape to the skin to support muscles and joints without restricting movement. The tape works by lifting the skin slightly, which can improve blood and lymphatic flow, reduce inflammation and pain, and provide sensory feedback to the nervous system.

Kinesio Taping is often used to stabilize injured or weak muscles, prevent overuse injuries, correct posture, enhance athletic performance, and assist in rehabilitation. Unlike traditional rigid taping, it allows for full range of motion while still offering support.

Physical therapists carefully assess muscle function and joint mechanics to determine the precise taping pattern, ensuring it targets the specific area of dysfunction or discomfort.
