Kinesio Taping in Lafayette
At Lafayette Chiropractic, we’re proud to offer Kinesio Taping as an effective complement to our chiropractic care. This innovative therapeutic technique uses special elastic tape to support muscles, reduce pain, and promote healing. Kinesio Taping is a versatile treatment that can benefit patients of all ages and activity levels.
How Does Kinesio Taping Work?
Kinesio Tape is a lightweight, elastic tape that we apply strategically to areas of your body that need support or pain relief. Unlike traditional athletic tape, Kinesio Tape is designed to mimic the elasticity of human skin, allowing for a full range of motion while providing therapeutic benefits.
When applied correctly, Kinesio Tape gently lifts the skin, creating a microscopic space between the skin and underlying tissues. This space:
- Improves blood and lymphatic circulation
- Reduces pain and inflammation
- Supports muscles and joints
- Enhances proprioception (your body’s ability to sense its position in space)
The tape can be worn for several days, even during showers or swimming, providing continuous therapeutic effects.
