Kinesio Taping
Kinesio taping, most recently seen on athletes at the 2008 Summer Olympics, especially the volley ball players, is a uniquely designed non-restrictive tape used for the treatment of muscular disorders.
It is applied to muscles to reduce pain and inflammation, relax over used muscles, and to support muscles in movement. It is used in conjunction with other rehabilitation techniques including strengthening exercises, stretching, and modalities, i.e. heat, cold, electrical stimulation, etc.
