Dr. Thomas attended a 2 day Kinesio Taping seminar in Seattle, WA. You may have seen athletes wearing tape or you may have used it. The taping applications are gentle and help the body with musculoskeletal pain, swelling, and posture support.
The founder of Kinesio tape, Dr. Kenzo Kase who is trained in acupuncture wanted to provide a “set of hands” his patients could wear after their treatments to continue the therapy. The presence of the tape on the body reinforces the therapeutic effects achieved during acupuncture sessions. Here are some pictures of various taping techniques and applications taken from the seminar.
