Our therapists utilize three different types of tape:

  1. Dynamic,
  2. Kinesio Tape,
  3. Rigid types such as the Leuko brand.

The various tapes may be used to stabilize a joint, restrict excessive joint motion or increase proprioception of taped area. This technique can be surprisingly effective to increase pain-free ROM. Its effectiveness is reduced after 3-5 days of use but can be worn in the shower, during exercise or any other daily activities.
