What’s Kinesio-Taping?

Kinesio-taping is a therapeutic taping technique that was developed in Japan in the 1970s. The tape is applied to the skin and it can be used for a variety of purposes.

It can be used for beauty purposes by taping areas of the skin that are prone to edema and swelling, like the face. It can also be used as a pain relief method by taping sore muscles and joints.

The tape is applied to either side of the skin, with an elastic bandage on top of it to hold it in place. The elastic bandage should not be too tight or too loose. The tape should only have enough tension so that it doesn't slide around when you move your body or when you apply pressure with your hands.
