Athletic Taping
Athletic Taping
At True Balance Rehabilitation and Performance in Kitchener, performance taping is used to support joints and soft tissues while allowing you to stay active and perform at your best. Whether you are recovering from an injury, returning to sport, or looking to prevent future issues our physiotherapists at True Balance use specialized taping techniques to improve stability, reduce strain on injured tissues, and promote proper body mechanics during activity.
There are various types of performance taping ranging from tapes that are rigid to others that have more elastic properties. These techniques help provide feedback to our nervous system which supports proper biomechanics, reduces pain, and gives you more confidence to move, train, and perform activity safely. After a comprehensive assessment with one of our expert physiotherapists performance taping can be an important component of your treatment plan in addition to manual therapy, exercise, and education on your injury.
A few common conditions that performance taping may help with is:
- Ankle sprains and instability
- Kneecap pain (i.e. patellofemoral pain)
- Shoulder strains and rotator cuff injuries
- Neck pain
- Tennis elbow and golfer’s elbow
- Achilles tendon pain
- Muscle strains and overuse injuries
If you are an athlete or individual looking for pain relief, the team at True Balance Rehab can help support your recovery and performance so you can return to the activities you enjoy with confidence.
