Experience Freedom from Pain with Kinesio Taping Therapy

Kinesio tape is an elastic therapeutic tape used by physiotherapists to treat various musculoskeletal conditions. It is applied in specific patterns on the skin over affected muscles, joints and connective tissues.

At Pain Free India Physiotherapy, we leverage the power of Kinesio Taping to relieve pain, reduce inflammation, improve circulation and enhance healing across a range of injuries, overuse conditions and chronic pain.

Kinesio Taping Therapy

As pioneers in providing Kinesio Taping Therapy in India, we use this modality for:

  • Chronic Pain Relief:

  1. Lower back pain
  2. Neck pain
  3. Arthritis 
  4. Headaches
  5. Neuropathic pain  
  • Sports Injuries:

  1. Sprains  
  2. Strains
  3. Tendinitis
  4. Bursitis
  5. Muscle cramps

Kinesio Taping Therapy works by lightly lifting the skin over target areas to improve blood and lymph flow. This helps to: 

  • Relieve muscle and joint pains 
  • Reduce swelling and inflammation
  • Enhance circulation 
  • Re-educate muscles
  • Provide positional awareness through added proprioception

The specialised wave pattern of Kinesio tape allows for a pulling effect that creates more space by lifting fascia and soft tissues. This takes the pressure off affected nerves, bones, muscles and lymph pathways to accelerate healing.

Kinesio tape applications at Pain Free India Physiotherapy also facilitate the delivery of medications through the skin for better absorption. Taping between sessions extends the therapeutic benefits and effects.
