The K-Taping® 

 

The K-Taping® (kinesio-taping) therapy is used to alleviate mild muscular-articular pain without constricting the body's movements. The “tape” works using thousands of the skin's “receptors” (2500 receptors/cm2). Also used in human physiotherapy, this technique is perfectly adapted to horses, whether they are ridden or not. The horses keep moving and their physical condition improves with each passing day.

 

The various applications of K-taping®:

 

- muscular

- ligament

- joint

- tendon

- corrective

- lymphatic

- fascia

 

Here are just a few of the advantages of K-taping®…

 

- Pain relief (tendinous, articular, muscular, ligamentous, etc.)

- Limits the pressure on the mechanoreceptors,

- Improves blood circulation,

- Increases lymphatic flow,

- Supports the mental state of your horse,

- Optimises joint function,

- Stimulates the proprioceptive system,

-…

 

As with any of the proposed techniques, should the animal suffer from locomotor and/or other diseases, a diagnosis and veterinary prescription are mandatory before I can perform the treatment.
