We commonly use Kinesio tape for areas of muscle tightness, decreased muscle activation and joint instability. Kinesio tape is a great product to assist with your strengthening program. The tape is also used for areas of pain, swelling and inflammation. The tape works to offload the area and therefore decrease pain.
