For those of you that watched the wonderful beach volleyball duo of Walsh and May, you may have recognized the black tape that Walsh was wearing on her shoulder. Kinesiotape is the same tape (different color) that we use on our patients to help stabilize injured areas.
The Kinesio Taping method (and tape) was developed by Chiropractor, Dr. Kenzo Kase over 25 years ago in Japan. The proprietary method of taping uses a uniquely designed and patented tape for treatment of muscular disorders and lymphatic edema reduction.
Both Dr. Neal and Dr. Nicole have taken extensive post graduate classes on the specific Kinesiotape application techniques. As an adjunct to Chiropractic care, we feel that this is the most effective taping for our patient’s healing needs.
As always, it is our goal to provide all of our patients (athletes or not) with the highest level of care possible. Next time you see Phil Dalhausser in town, tell him that your chiropractor uses Kinesiotape too!!! (notice the tape on his abdomen)
