Kinesiology Taping - 
 
Kinesiology - is the scientific study of movement, and that is what this tape is for: supporting and promoting movement. It does not compress the tissue which allows it to support proper muscle movement. There are many different application patterns for your given goal. For example, it can activate or relax muscles, support joints or assist fascia correction. Leslie is Certified by
