Kinesio (Kinesiology) tape is a thin, stretchy, elastic cotton strip with an acrylic adhesive which can be used to benefit a wide variety of musculoskeletal and sports injuries and inflammatory conditions. It can be used to apply compression to promote recovery or decompression to relieve pain and swelling
Kinesiology tape is almost identical to human skin in both thickness and elasticity, which allows kinesio tape to be worn without binding, constricting or restriction of your movement.
