Kinesio Taping
Have You Been Benched Due to a Sports Injury?
Kinesio Taping Might Just Be the Advantage You Need to Rejoin the Action!
Kinesio taping, also known as sports taping, KT taping, or Rock taping, uses a special type of tape to reduce pain, improve mobility, and provide support to joints, muscles, and tendons. Injuries are a common occurrence in sports, but our physical therapists in Birmingham & Solihull, Coventry & Warwickshire, and London use advanced treatments to help you perform at your best. Kinesio taping can effectively relieve pain from various injuries, accelerate recovery, and enhance overall mobility and sports performance.
Whether you’ve strained a muscle during training or suffered a non-sports-related injury, our physical therapists are here to alleviate your discomfort and get you back to the activities you enjoy!
How Can Kinesio Taping Benefit Me in Birmingham & Solihull?
Kinesio tape is constructed from a flexible material, facilitating uninhibited movement. Its primary application is to enhance your range of motion and alleviate pain. Furthermore, Kinesio taping is believed to reduce inflammation, support post-surgical recovery, maximize performance, prevent injury, promote healthy circulation, and aid the body’s natural healing mechanism.
Kinesio taping is often employed with athletes to bolster aspects of sports performance, such as:
Strength
Proprioception (i.e., static and dynamic balance)
Power
Jumping ability (vertical and horizontal)
Speed and agility
Kinesio tape is also used as an adjunct to treating sports, and non-sports injuries, like:
Ankle Sprains
Runner’s Knee
Hamstring Pulls
Calf/Achilles Strains
Rotator Cuff Problems
Back Pain
Posture Awareness
Kinesio tape is used to help alleviate pain so you can get back to living your everyday active life!
What Can I Expect From Kinesio Taping?
Rehabilitation should commence immediately after most injuries for optimal recovery speed. A physical therapist with sports rehabilitation expertise at Care & Cure in Birmingham & Solihull, Coventry & Warwickshire and London, will conduct a comprehensive assessment of the athlete to ascertain the injury’s intensity and uncover any other weaknesses or restrictions that could impact the athlete’s recovery, stability, or strength.
Subsequently, your therapist at Care & Cure will devise a specialized, targeted care plan for you aimed at expediting recovery and mitigating future injuries.
For instance, your physical therapist will initially concentrate on pain control and regaining mobility in the affected area. Kinesio taping is a potent technique to give you an advantage in your recovery.
