Elastic Therapeutic Taping at Onyx Wellness
Elastic therapeutic taping is a treatment method for muscular or soft tissue injuries that uses a thin, elastic cotton strip with an adhesive designed to adhere to skin. When the tape is properly applied, it aids in injury recovery by gently lifting the skin away from the underlying muscle and fascia, thereby increasing circulation of blood and lymphatic fluids and deceasing pressure on irritated nerves.
You have probably seen this type of taping being used on Olympic and professional athletes over the past several years.
In our office, we use the KinesioTex (the original brand) and PerformTex brands due to the highest quality cotton strips and adhesives found in the industry.
