Kinesiotaping

Kinesiotaping
-
Support Where You Need It.
-
Less Swelling. More Mobility.
-
Faster, Active Recovery.
​
At Spine Time Chiropractic, we offer Kinesiotaping—a versatile, drug-free technique that uses flexible, waterproof tape to support injured muscles and joints, reduce inflammation, and enhance movement. Unlike traditional athletic taping, kinesiotape works with your body, not against it—offering stability without restricting your natural range of motion.
​
Whether you’re recovering from an injury, managing chronic tension, or simply looking to stay active while healing, kinesiotaping helps you move more comfortably and recover more effectively.
​
What Is Kinesiotaping?
​
Kinesiotaping involves applying a special elastic therapeutic tape directly to the skin over muscles, joints, or areas of pain. Once applied, the tape gently lifts the skin microscopically—creating space that improves circulation and promotes lymphatic drainage.​
This subtle lift from Kinesiotape:
-
Reduces pressure on pain receptors
-
Decreases inflammation and swelling
-
Supports injured or overused muscles
-
Allows the body to heal while staying mobile
​
Kinesiotaping can be worn for several days, through showers, workouts, and daily activities—making it a powerful tool for ongoing support and relief.
​
