Kinesio Taping in Inver Grove Heights
Kinesio taping has become one of the most recognized and widely used types of rehabilitation techniques.
At Cahill Back & Neck Care Center, we have a chiropractic support team that is experienced with this innovative and effective tool.
What Kinesio Taping?
A kinesio tape is a very stretchy tape that imitates the elasticity of a skin for the purpose to expand a person’s range of motion. The tape is made of cotton and nylon and is quite durable and water-resistant.
It remains one of the most widely used therapeutic modalities in the rehabilitation field. You probably have seen this type of tape on the arms and legs of wrestlers, football players, gymnasts, and track and field athletes as well as on the bodies of those recovering from surgery.
Benefits of Kinesio Taping
- It has a powerful impact on its own, or it can be utilized with other treatments like massage, spinal manipulations, adjustments, and so forth
- The tape can be worn around the clock and can remain in place for several days, providing therapeutic benefits the entire time without daily visits to therapists

- The kinesio tape has no known side effects, is hypoallergenic, and is a safe and non-invasive treatment option
