Kinesiotaping

Relief from pain or excessive pressure

Are you troubled by unpleasant and often long-term pain in tendons, muscles or joints? The popular and effective kinesiotaping method can help you. You have probably already seen athletes with colourful tape on various parts of their bodies.

Kinesiotaping is the work of Japanese chiropractor Dr Kenzo Kase, whose efforts to accelerate injury healing and optimise the course of acute and chronic conditions were crowned by the development of a completely new revolutionary material.

The tape for kinesiotaping is made of cotton; some types are coated with tourmaline. The adhesive, which is usually natural resin, is arranged in a wave pattern on the tape. The tape can be stretched to up to 160% of its original length, is water-resistant and breathable. It adheres very well and gently to human skin. The various colours of the tape do not have a fundamental effect on the therapeutic outcome.

Before & After

What are the benefits of kinesiotaping

  • The primary advantage is that the elastic tape supports muscles, tendons, and joints without restricting movement. You can move freely, exercise, or work while the tape helps stabilise strained areas and protect them from further overload.
  • Kinesiotaping also improves blood and lymph circulation, which accelerates healing, reduces swelling, bruising, and inflammation. This is appreciated not only after an injury or surgery but also with chronic muscle and joint strain.
  • Another benefit is that the tapes can relieve pain — they gently lift the skin, reducing pressure on painful areas and supporting the release of muscle tension.
  • Properly applied kinesiotaping also improves posture and movement habits, as it helps guide muscles and joints into their natural position.
  • This is useful for athletes as well as for people with sedentary jobs or unilateral physical strain.
  • A great plus is that kinesiotaping is gentle, painless, and non-invasive — it perfectly complements physiotherapy and rehabilitation, and works even where exercise alone is not enough.
  • The result? Less pain, faster healing, and confidence in movement — all without medication and complicated recovery.

Často kladené otázky

How long does the procedure take and is it painful?

The procedure usually takes 30 to 60 minutes and is performed in completely comfortable conditions. We apply a numbing cream before the treatment, so you only feel minimal discomfort.

When will I see the first results?

You will usually notice the first improvement within a few days to weeks after the initial treatment. For optimal results, we recommend a series of sessions according to an individual plan.

What is the cost and how many sessions will I need?

The exact number of treatments and total cost are determined after an initial consultation with our specialist. Typically, it involves 3–6 sessions at intervals of several weeks.

Are there any risks or contraindications?

The procedure is among the safest methods. Before the first treatment, we will discuss your health condition and evaluate any contraindications. Slight redness at the injection site is common and subsides quickly.
