The Kinesio Taping® Method is a rehabilitative
taping technique that is designed to facilitate the body’s natural healing
process while providing support and stability to muscles and joints without
restricting the body’s range of motion as well as providing extended soft
tissue manipulation to prolong the benefits of manual therapy administered
within the clinical setting. (www.kinesiotaping.com)
