Kinesio Taping (K Taping)
Discover more about the benefits of Kinesio (K taping)
Kinesio Taping (K Taping) technique was developed by Dr. Kenzo Kase in Japan over 25 yrs ago. It was developed to assist the healing of traumatised tissue rather than simply immobilising the joints. K taping allows movement in the affected tissues, which helps aid lymphatic and muscle systems encouraging lymphatic fluid movement away from areas of high pressure (reducing swelling) and towards working lymphnodes (speeding recovery).
Kinesio Taping is used to Treat
- Shoulder pain, frozen shoulder
- Backache, neck pain and arm pain
- Muscle stiffness and muscular spasms
- Tension, golfers & tennis elbow
- Wrist & foot pain, knee or hip problems

Plymouth AreaI've had 2 intermittent back issues for 18 years. I've seen several physios' but Mick is undoubtedly the one I'd recommend. He targeted the areas I needed looking at and gave me instant relief from a pull to my lower back. Thanks Mick.
