Kinesiology- Taping

Have you ever seen your favorite athlete with colorful tape all over their body? This is kinesiology tape and it is one of our many treatment options at Michigan Complete Chiropractic & Wellness. In our clinic we use Rock-Tape® brand tape to successfully treat many conditions with great results!

We utilize different taping methods to accomplish different goals:

1. You cannot be seen every day, by utilizing kinesiology tape we allow your body to continue healing between visits. Getting you out of pain and feeling better faster!

2. Taping for specific sporting events or activities. We see everyone as athletic in your own way. Whether your pitching in the next game or have a family camping trip planned this weekend. We can tape you to perform better in those activities.

How it works

Taping is a 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. It also performs an extended soft tissue manipulation to prolonging the benefits you see while in our clinic.

Benefits for you:

• Taping over or around muscles to either prevent over contraction or stimulate under-active muscles.

• Affecting deeper layers of fascial tissue by manipulating the overlying skin and muscles.

• Creating space under skin to allow lymphatic drainage. This is good for reducing swelling or bruising following an injury.

• Pain relief by stimulating the skin at the source of your pain.

• Utilizing corrective techniques teaching your body proper muscle and joint function.
