Athletes need to be in form, but frequent injuries and posture issues can hamper their fitness in more ways than one. Kinesio Tape, also otherwise known as a Kinesiology tape, is a thin and stretchy strip that comes with an acrylic adhesive. It is often used as an alternate form of healing, especially for sports injuries and musculoskeletal problems. It is also extremely beneficial for patients who are dealing with inflammatory pain or similar conditions.

In many ways, the Kinesio Tape is similar to the skin, especially with regards to elasticity, and therefore, athletes and sportsmen can wear the tape without restricting their movement. The Kinesio Tape became more popular, when Japanese Olympic athletes adopted the tape in 1988. Since then, a number of sportsmen and athletes have been relying on kinesiology taping for enhancing performance, preventing injuries and to get back to their fitness form.
