🩹 Kinesiotaping a.k.a Kinesiology Taping in San Diego

Kinesiotaping is a gentle yet powerful technique used to support muscles and joints without restricting movement. This specialized therapeutic tape helps reduce pain, improve circulation, and promote natural healing — all while allowing you to stay active.

Whether you're an athlete recovering from an injury, experiencing muscle tension from daily activities, or simply want to improve your posture and performance, kinesiotaping can help you move and feel better.

💪 What Is Kinesiotaping?

Kinesiotaping involves applying elastic, stretchy tape to targeted areas of the body to gently lift the skin and support underlying tissues. Unlike traditional athletic taping (which restricts movement), kinesiotaping allows for full range of motion while still providing structural support.

• Reduce pain and inflammation

• Improve blood flow and lymphatic drainage

• Support muscles during activity
