Kinesiology tape gives support and stability to your joints and muscles without affecting circulation and range of motion. The tape, when applied lifts the skin to create a small space between the muscle and dermis layers. That space takes the pressure off swelling or injured muscles, allows smooth muscle movement and makes space for lymphatic drainage and blood flow.
It is also used for Preventive Maintenance, posture, assisting to relieve pressure on overused muscles, muscle/joint swelling, proprioception and to treat pain.
