Services We Offer
- Kinesiology Taping: Also known as sports taping or K-taping, this technique involves applying elastic tape to the skin to provide support to muscles and joints while allowing for full range of motion.
- Ankle Taping: Techniques to support and stabilise the ankle joint to prevent sprains, strains, and other injuries common in sports such as football, basketball, and netball.
- Shoulder Taping: Taping methods to provide support and stability to the shoulder joint, particularly beneficial for athletes involved in overhead activities such as swimming, tennis, and volleyball.
- Preventative Taping: Application of tape to areas prone to injury to reduce the risk of sprains, strains, and other soft tissue injuries during physical activity.
Benefits of Taping and Strapping
- Enhanced Stability: Taping and strapping provide support to injured or vulnerable areas, reducing the risk of further injury and promoting safe movement.
- Pain Reduction: By supporting muscles and joints, taping can help alleviate pain associated with certain injuries or conditions, allowing you to move more comfortably.
- Improved Performance: Properly applied taping techniques can enhance proprioception (awareness of body position) and biomechanics, leading to improved athletic performance and reduced risk of injury.
