K-Taping
Kinesiology tape, a pliable cotton strip featuring an acrylic adhesive, is crafted to offer backing and steadiness to muscles and joints while permitting unrestricted movement. It emulates the flexibility of human skin, enhancing the flow of blood and lymph fluid, and serves as a natural pain alleviator. Utilized for pain management, inflammation reduction, and providing support to strained muscles and joints, K-tape, when affixed to humans, decompresses the skin and underlying tissues. Similarly, when applied to animals, the tape raises the hair, lifting the skin and inducing the same decompression effect observed in humans. This decompression aids in diminishing inflammation and easing pressure on nerve endings.
Benefits:
• Decrease pain
• Decrease inflammation
• Increase support muscles & joints
• Increase energy flow
• Increase proprioception
