It is as thin and stretchy as human skin, with a grid-like pattern that makes it breathable. The tape also has a water-resistant medical-grade adhesive that is strong enough to stay on for three to five days, even when you play your favorite sports or shower. It is a great non-bulky alternative to a heavy brace for treating a wide array of injuries, used by many physical therapists. Kinesiology tape is applied on top of an injured or strained area to support it.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">As you move, the tape, skin, and connective tissue over the muscle or tendon also move, pulling slightly away from the muscle and creating space for lymphatic fluid to flow around and transports white blood cells throughout the body and removing waste products, cellular debris, and bacteria from the inflamed tissue. Kinesio Taping helps to reduce pain and promotes natural healing processes in our bodies.\u00a0In a rehabilitation setting, taping after manual therapy helps to support the area. This allows the muscles and ligaments nearby to heal while taking pressure off the areas that were manipulated during your physical therapy session.<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=&#8221;1&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.6.0&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; background_enable_color=&#8221;off&#8221; custom_margin=&#8221;0px|0px|0px|0px|false|false&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;0px|0px|0px|0px|false|false&#8221;][et_pb_row column_structure=&#8221;1_2,1_2&#8243; make_equal=&#8221;on&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.6.0&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; background_enable_color=&#8221;off&#8221; custom_margin=&#8221;0px||0px||false|false&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;0px||0px||false|false&#8221; custom_css_main_element=&#8221;margin: auto;&#8221;][et_pb_column type=&#8221;1_2&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.6.0&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; background_enable_color=&#8221;off&#8221; background_enable_image=&#8221;off&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;0px|0px|0px|0px|false|false&#8221;][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.6.0&#8243; text_font=&#8221;Lato||||||||&#8221; text_text_color=&#8221;#000000&#8243; text_font_size=&#8221;15px&#8221; text_line_height=&#8221;1.8em&#8221; max_width=&#8221;100%&#8221; max_width_tablet=&#8221;80%&#8221; max_width_phone=&#8221;80%&#8221; max_width_last_edited=&#8221;on|desktop&#8221; module_alignment=&#8221;center&#8221; custom_margin=&#8221;0px||||false|false&#8221; custom_margin_tablet=&#8221;&#8221; custom_margin_phone=&#8221;&#8221; custom_margin_last_edited=&#8221;on|tablet&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;50px|0px|50px|0px|false|false&#8221;]<\/p>\n<h4>BENEFITS OD KINESIOTAPING:<\/h4>\n<ul class=\"fa-ul\">\n<li><i class=\"fa fa-check-circle\" style=\"color: #e02b20;\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i> reduce muscle exhaustion<\/li>\n<li><i class=\"fa fa-check-circle\" style=\"color: #e02b20;\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i> reduce muscle soreness<\/li>\n<li><i class=\"fa fa-check-circle\" style=\"color: #e02b20;\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i> alleviate pain<\/li>\n<li><i class=\"fa fa-check-circle\" style=\"color: #e02b20;\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i> diminish swelling<\/li>\n<li><i class=\"fa fa-check-circle\" style=\"color: #e02b20;\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i> improve lymphatic drainage and blood flow<\/li>\n<li><i class=\"fa fa-check-circle\" style=\"color: #e02b20;\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i> prevent injuries<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=&#8221;1_2&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.6.0&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;||||false|false&#8221; custom_css_main_element=&#8221;margin: auto;&#8221;][et_pb_image src=&#8221;https:\/\/pdrehab.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/Kinesiotaping_PD-Rehab_2-1.jpg&#8221; title_text=&#8221;Kinesio Tape Application&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.6.0&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221;][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row column_structure=&#8221;1_2,1_2&#8243; make_equal=&#8221;on&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.6.0&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; background_color=&#8221;#ffffff&#8221; custom_margin=&#8221;0px||0px||false|false&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;0px||0px||false|false&#8221; custom_css_main_element=&#8221;margin: auto;&#8221;][et_pb_column type=&#8221;1_2&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.6.0&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;||||false|false&#8221; custom_css_main_element=&#8221;margin: auto;&#8221;][et_pb_image src=&#8221;https:\/\/pdrehab.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/Kinesiotaping_PD-Rehab_1-1.jpg&#8221; title_text=&#8221;Kinesiotaping_PD-Rehab_1&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.6.0&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221;][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=&#8221;1_2&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.6.0&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;||||false|false&#8221; custom_css_main_element=&#8221;margin: auto;&#8221;][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.6.0&#8243; text_font=&#8221;Lato||||||||&#8221; text_text_color=&#8221;#000000&#8243; text_font_size=&#8221;15px&#8221; text_line_height=&#8221;1.8em&#8221; max_width=&#8221;100%&#8221; max_width_tablet=&#8221;80%&#8221; max_width_phone=&#8221;80%&#8221; max_width_last_edited=&#8221;on|desktop&#8221; module_alignment=&#8221;center&#8221; custom_margin=&#8221;0px||||false|false&#8221; custom_margin_tablet=&#8221;&#8221; custom_margin_phone=&#8221;&#8221; custom_margin_last_edited=&#8221;on|tablet&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;50px|0px|50px|0px|false|false&#8221;]<\/p>\n<h4>WHAT DOES THE TREATMENT LOOK LIKE?<\/h4>\n<p>Our therapists use this patented method of applying tape to affected joints or body parts to treat a variety of conditions, including neck and lower back pain, knee, ankle, shoulder, and elbow conditions. We use Kinesio Tape combined with other therapies, such as electrical stimulation, ultrasound, manual therapy, or therapeutic exercises to ensure each patient achieves maximum healing potential.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Before<\/strong> the Kinesio Tape application, the skin and muscle are compressed, resulting in less blood flow and a buildup of pressure and inflammation, which results in pain.<\/p>\n<p><strong>After<\/strong> application, the Kinesio Tape creates support for the inflamed muscles and forms folds, which increase the space between the skin and muscle. This enables fluids to flow freely, decreasing pressure and inflammation.<\/p>\n<p>PDR Physical Therapy &amp; Wellness Center is a leader in this safe and exciting method and we are thrilled to offer this healing service to you.<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[et_pb_section fb_built=&#8221;1&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.6.0&#8243; background_enable_color=&#8221;off&#8221; background_image=&#8221;https:\/\/pdrehab.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/Title-BG_Image.jpg&#8221; background_size=&#8221;initial&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;90px||90px||false|&#8221; saved_tabs=&#8221;all&#8221;][et_pb_row _builder_version=&#8221;4.6.0&#8243; custom_padding=&#8221;||0px|||&#8221;][et_pb_column type=&#8221;4_4&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.6.0&#8243; custom_padding=&#8221;|||&#8221; custom_padding__hover=&#8221;|||&#8221;][et_pb_post_title meta=&#8221;off&#8221; featured_image=&#8221;off&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.6.0&#8243; title_font=&#8221;Poppins|700|||||||&#8221; title_text_align=&#8221;left&#8221; title_text_color=&#8221;#ffffff&#8221; title_font_size=&#8221;30px&#8221; custom_margin=&#8221;||-1px|||&#8221; title_font_size_tablet=&#8221;&#8221; title_font_size_phone=&#8221;20px&#8221; title_font_size_last_edited=&#8221;on|desktop&#8221;][\/et_pb_post_title][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=&#8221;1&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;3.22.3&#8243; background_color=&#8221;#ffffff&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;36px|0px|22px|0px|false|false&#8221;][et_pb_row _builder_version=&#8221;4.6.0&#8243; background_image=&#8221;https:\/\/pdrehab.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/PDR-Logo_Gradient_Transparent.png&#8221; background_size=&#8221;contain&#8221; background_position=&#8221;top_center&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;27px|0px|15px|0px|false|false&#8221;][et_pb_column type=&#8221;4_4&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;3.25&#8243; custom_padding=&#8221;|||&#8221; custom_padding__hover=&#8221;|||&#8221;][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.6.0&#8243; text_font=&#8221;Poppins|700||on|||||&#8221; text_text_color=&#8221;#000000&#8243; text_font_size=&#8221;30px&#8221; text_orientation=&#8221;center&#8221; text_font_size_tablet=&#8221;&#8221; text_font_size_phone=&#8221;20px&#8221; text_font_size_last_edited=&#8221;on|desktop&#8221;] WHAT IS KINESIOLOGY TAPE?
