What Is Kinesiotaping and McConnell Taping Therapy?

Kinesio Tape (KT), or kinesiology tape, is a newly popularized modality that is used by therapists trained in the Kinesio Taping Method by Certified Kinesio Taping Instructors (CKTI).

Kinesio Tape is a latex-free hypoallergenic cotton fiber tape with an acrylic heat-activated backing that stretches only along its longitudinal axis.

The McConnell Taping Method is a technique that tapes body parts to affect a specific biomechanical movement.

Faye B

This has been the best experience I’ve ever had.

A special thanks to Dr.Patt and Sue I came here after having shoulder surgery. When I came I couldn’t move my arm much at all. Before I came here I could not put on makeup, I couldn’t put my arm behind my head. I couldn’t get dishes from the cabinet. Many other things I couldn’t do but NOW I CAN! This has been the best experience I’ve ever had. Everyone is so nice and friendly. Always laughing! Everyone took such good care of me, and at a time when the world was in an uproar, they were extremely accommodating. I’d never go anywhere else. I’ll be back!
