Sports Taping

There are various brands of sports tape, but the focus is still the same. Kinesiotape or other Sports Tapes are elastic, and thereby move with you, so that you can still perform activities, while getting some added support or feedback from the tape. It can help to decrease pain, reduce swelling & inflammation, and even help with postural support and biomechanics.

Can I wear Sports Tape in my day to day?

As we say, “You can sweat, shower, or swim” with the tape, and the elasticity doesn’t wear out. The adhesive holds very well, and often lasts anywhere from 1 day to 1 week, depending on the area. The tape is latex-free and hypoallergenic, but please let us know if you have any allergies or skin conditions.
