Q: What is the function of K-tape?

Km: K-tape, short for kinesio tape, was first dreamed up by a Japanese chiropractor over 25 years ago. Its main function is as a second layer of fascia, which anatomically serves to support muscles and allow tendons and ligaments to glide over each other. So, K-tape basically supports your muscles and keeps stuff tracking correctly. As for the whole increased blood flow thing, anything that pulls your skin is going to increase blood flow as a result of contact.

    This looks like a great new use of science and technology to improve health. I hope this works for people with joint and bone problems like osteoarthritis. Many people don't know what osteoarthritis is or how painful the daily movements can become. Hopefully this tape will aid with their daily activities.
