Kinesiotape

Kinesiotaping and Garments for Children

Lisa has been using kinesiotape and postural control garments for 18 years. She is proficient in pediatric taping, Theratogs, Spio garments, and Benik garments.

Kinesiotaping is an excellent treatment intervention for children with any type of movement disorder. It is beneficial as part of a treatment plan for sensory integration deficits, low muscle tone, and cerebral palsy, and pain.

The principle of kinesiotape is the use of a “stretchy” tape that is applied directly to the skin. The tape either encourages or discourages the use of particular muscles based on how it is applied. Taping can be taught to caregivers and is used as part of the overall PT plan of care.
