    Holding progress between sessions

    Kinesiology Taping

    Supportive taping to offload tissue and hold your progress between sessions — added to any other appointment for £15, and included within the Physiotherapy Package where it helps.

    Overview

    Kinesiology tape is elastic and is applied along or around the tissue being helped. It does not immobilise the joint the way rigid strapping does; it offloads and supports while you keep moving.

    It is an add-on rather than an appointment of its own: £15 on top of any other treatment, applied at the end of the session. Within the Physiotherapy Package it is included where it forms part of the treatment, at no extra charge.

    The area is assessed before anything is applied. Tape put on the wrong structure does nothing useful, so the area is looked at as well as taped.

    You leave knowing how long to leave it on, how to look after it, and what it should and should not feel like.

    Good to know

    Medical considerations

    A few things to be aware of before booking. If in doubt, get in touch and we'll advise.

    • Tell us about any skin sensitivity or allergy, including to adhesives, before tape is applied.

    • Tape is not applied over broken skin, open wounds or an active skin infection.

    • If you have been taped before, tell us how your skin responded — it changes what is used and for how long.

    • Remove the tape and contact us if the skin becomes itchy, red or sore under it rather than leaving it in place.

    • Taping supports tissue; it does not replace the loading and rehabilitation that resolve the problem.

    FAQs

    Questions, answered

    How long does the tape stay on?+

    Usually a few days, and you will be told what to expect for your application. It is designed to stay on through showering and normal activity.

    Can I shower with it on?+

    Yes. Pat it dry rather than rubbing it, and avoid catching an edge when you dry off.

    Does it hurt to take off?+

    It should not. Take it off slowly, along the direction of hair growth, ideally after a shower when it is softened.

    How do I add taping to my appointment?+

    Book the treatment you are coming in for and ask for taping when you book or on the day. It is £15 on top of the treatment, and included within the Physiotherapy Package where it helps.

    What if my skin reacts to it?+

    Take it off and let us know. Tell us before your appointment if you have reacted to adhesives before, so a different approach can be used.
