Kinesiotape is a revolutionary sports medicine solution for treating and preventing common sports injuries such as shoulder impingement, shin splints, plantar fasciitis, knee pain, and more.
Kinesiotape provides the same support and stability as other modalities without restricting blood flow or limiting ranges of motion. It is applied over and around muscles, ligaments, tendons and other soft or fibrous tissues to provide lightweight, comfortable support, prevent injury and speed recovery.
CEP is proud to offer Rock Tape brand kinesiotape, which has been found to have superior durability for athletes rehabilitating, recovering, and training under the toughest conditions. Our clinical trials have shown Rock Tape to last for several days following application.
Key features include:
Heat activated latex-free adhesive meets needs of even the most sensitive skin and will not deactivate in water
Elasticity stimulates skins natural give and stretch for a “second skin” effect and can last longer than other tape applications (up to 5 days)
Supports and provides stability without restricting ranges of motion
Therapeutic effects lift and convolutes facial plane to allow for lymph drainage
Kinesiotape applications deliver these benefits by providing proprioception that signals muscles for facilitation or inhibition, mechanically supporting joints such as the knee or ankle, approximating connective tissues to relieve stress, or activating the one cell layer-thick lymph system to move fluid. Utilizing these techniques allows inflamed or stressed tissues to have a chance to heal.
