Information
Kinesio taping is an effective therapy that can bring relief from pain, making some weeks or months of pregnancy more comfortable.
How Does It Work?
Flexible, colorful tape gently lifts the skin, improving blood flow to affected areas. It supports the body’s natural healing process by providing stability to joints and muscles—during pregnancy, after childbirth, during sports, and in daily activities.
What Are Tapes?
Kinesio tape is a flexible cotton fabric woven at a 90-degree angle, allowing it to stretch lengthwise. Its properties mimic the top layer of your skin, with the adhesive side attached gently.
The tape is breathable, preventing heat rash, and can stretch up to 150%. When applied correctly, it adheres so well that you may not even notice it, allowing you to move naturally without restriction. You can shower and swim without issues. Quality tapes remain in place even after drying.
The characteristics of the tapes may vary depending on where they are applied, but their purpose is always the same—to provide relief from pain and swelling. The tape stimulates receptors in the skin, sending signals to facilitate healing.
