Kinesio Tape - All Clinic Locations
This treatment option allows the body’s natural healing process to take effect to not only relieve pain but restore function to an injured area of the body. Affected muscles are taped to provide support, allowing you to still compete with assistance. Kinesio taping is often used to prevent overuse injuries and can encourage lymph flow and prevent swelling.

Anti-Gravity Treadmill - Waverly Clinic
