I may consider kinesio taping for certain muscle, joint or sports-related problems where additional support or movement feedback could be helpful.
It’s commonly seen around areas such as the shoulder, knee, ankle, lower back and muscles of the legs.
However, simply putting tape over a painful area doesn’t necessarily address the problem.
Before using kinesio tape, I’ll assess your movement and symptoms to understand what’s contributing to your discomfort. The tape may then form one part of your overall treatment plan.
