What's that cool lookin tape that athletes wear? Kinesio taping! Rocktape!

Kinesio taping is more than just a fad to accessorize one's skin!!
Yes it does come in great colors and different widths.



The purpose of kinesiotaping:


  • Kinesio taping enhances lymphatic drainage.  Lymphatic drainage is important in recovery from a game or an injury.
  • Kinesio taping assist muscle movement and function.  It does not restrict movement.
  • Kinesio taping prevents fatigue.
  • Kinesio taping enhances proprioception.  Proprioception is a system that involuntarily plots information regarding your body position and balance improving performance.  
  • Kinesio tape can be applied to compress the tissues or decompress the tissues to reduce swelling and promote recovery.
