Some of you may have seen the Summer Olympics in Beijing and been puzzled about the mysterious black stuff on Kerri Walsh’s shoulder. That black stuff (also available in pink, beige, and blue) was Kinesio® Tape, a revolutionary tape from Japan specifically designed to give support to the muscles and prevent over-contraction, as well as creating space underneath the skin to improve circulation and lymphatic drainage.
Many professional athletes have embraced this tape and its special method of application with great results; Lance Armstrong, Serena Williams, David Beckham, and of course Kerri Walsh, are just a few.
College teams are also getting in on all the action, and as the word spreads more and more people will be aware of the benefits of the Kinesio® taping method and be offering it to the general public.
We are pleased to be able to offer this method of taping in our clinic to aid in the recovery and comfort of our clients. If you would like to give the Kinesio® taping method a try just give us a call or send us an e-mail and we will get you in for a trial application.
