I’ve recently completed KT1 and KT2 training meaning that I’m now able to use kinesology tape in my clinics! You may not know it by name but you’ve probably seen athletes and sports people wearing the brightly coloured pink or blue tape – it’s also available in black and beige!
Kinesiotaping (also known as K-Tape) is a relatively new technique that helps muscle function, lymphatic drainage, circulation and range of movement both after an injury and when getting over any long term pain or discomfort. It’s really popular with sportspeople and high profile users have included David Beckham and Lance Armstrong but possibly the most famous users were the beach volleyball players at the last summer olympics!
I’ve written a bit more about kinesiotaping here but if you’d like to know more, just give me a call.
