What is kinesio taping?
Kinesio taping is an effective method of modern physiotherapy in which elastic tapes are applied to the skin to stimulate the body’s own healing processes. The method was originally developed in Japan; today, kinesio tape is recognized worldwide in pain therapy, sports medicine and orthopaedics. In contrast to classic taping, we at sportsmed.berlin only use high-quality kinesiology tape, which does not restrict movement due to its elasticity, but rather supports it in a targeted manner.
The special tapes are skin-friendly, breathable and water-resistant, which means they can be worn for several days without any problems. This ensures continuous and effective therapy in everyday life.
A simple explanation of how Kinesio tape works
The special effect of Kinesio tape lies in its elasticity and the specific adhesive technique. When applied correctly, the elastic tape lifts the skin slightly, which leads to improved blood circulation and optimized lymphatic drainage. This activates the body’s self-healing powers, relieves pain and reduces inflammation in the long term.
The tape also has a stimulating effect on receptors in the skin and the underlying muscles, which reduces tension and promotes mobility. In our practice in Berlin, we use different techniques and individually tailored taping methods to maximize the success of the treatment.

Differences to classic taping
Unlike classic, rigid tape, kinesio tape relies specifically on the elastic properties of the material. Classic taping immobilizes joints in order to deliberately restrict movement. Kinesio tape, on the other hand, maintains full mobility and actively supports natural healing processes through a dynamic effect on muscles and joints.
Kinesio thus opens up new possibilities, particularly in modern pain therapy: Patients benefit from effective treatment without being restricted in their freedom of movement.
Scientific evidence on kinesio tape
The effectiveness of kinesio taping has now been investigated in numerous scientific studies. Many studies confirm that the tape can relieve pain, improve mobility and support the healing process. Taping is particularly effective for muscular complaints, chronic pain and sports injuries.
As specialists in the field of physiotherapy and sports medicine, we always rely on evidence-based treatment methods in our practice. Nevertheless, we attach great importance to individual diagnostics to ensure that the method is used in a targeted and sensible manner.

Combining kinesio tape with other forms of therapy
Another key advantage of kinesio taping is that it can be ideally combined with other therapeutic procedures. In our practice, we offer shock wave therapy and classic physiotherapy to maximize the success of your treatment. Manual therapy measures or targeted exercises by our sports medicine specialist in Berlin can also be perfectly complemented.
