Kinesio Taping
Kinesio Taping supports muscle strength, balance, and recovery while improving movement and reducing discomfort in children.
What is Kinesio Taping?
Kinesio Taping is a gentle and effective method that helps children with poor muscle tone, coordination issues, or postural difficulties. The tape provides light support and sensory feedback to guide proper movement patterns. Our experienced therapists apply Kinesio Taping therapy to promote better motor control and body awareness.
How Does Kinesio Taping Works?
Kinesio Taping supports muscles and joints while allowing full movement. It gently lifts the skin to improve blood flow, reduce pain, and enhance muscle function. This technique is especially helpful for children needing postural correction or motor support.
Therapists evaluate the child’s muscle tone, posture, and movement challenges.
A taping plan is designed to target specific muscles or functional needs.
Elastic kinesio tape is applied to affected areas to support alignment and improve mobility.
Children engage in guided exercises to strengthen coordination and body control.
Benefits Of Kinesio Taping
Kinesio Taping is highly beneficial for children who need extra support in movement, posture, or muscle control. This gentle taping method provides sensory feedback that helps improve coordination, stability, and confidence during daily activities.
Kinesio Taping helps activate weak muscles and improve overall body strength.
Kinesio Taping enhances body awareness and stability during movement.
It provides gentle support to joints and encourages proper posture alignment.

Frequently Asked Questions
Kinesio Taping is a therapeutic taping method using elastic, skin-like tape that supports muscles, joints, and connective tissues without limiting natural movement. When applied correctly, it microscopically lifts the skin to enhance blood and lymphatic flow, reduce inflammation, and improve proprioception (body awareness), which collectively supports pain relief and muscular function.
In pediatric settings like PediGym, Kinesio Taping is used to: improve muscle activation and strength, boost sensory feedback, reduce discomfort and swelling, enhance posture and balance, and support coordination and motor control. It helps children with conditions such as poor tone, postural challenges, or movement dysfunction to move more efficiently and confidently.
Yes. Kinesio Tape is made from breathable, latex-free cotton with a gentle adhesive that is safe for many children and adults. Typically it can be worn comfortably for 3–5 days through normal activities like bathing and daily play. Always monitor for irritation; discontinue if redness or discomfort develops.
Unlike rigid athletic tape that limits motion to stabilize a joint, Kinesio Tape is elastic and allows full range of motion while offering dynamic support. It enhances muscle coordination and circulation, rather than only restricting movement, making it suitable for rehabilitation and functional movement training.
Yes. Kinesio Taping may not be appropriate over broken skin, active infections, open wounds, or in cases of deep vein thrombosis without professional guidance. People and children with sensitive skin should undergo a patch test first, and it’s best applied by trained therapists to ensure safety and effectiveness.
