Spidertech Kinesiology Buffalo, NY

What to Expect

SpiderTech is a form of kinesiotaping which comes in pre-cut forms for different body areas. This technique helps with both soft tissue repairs and skeletal treatments.

Kinesiotaping is a different form of taping than you might see when someone wraps their ankles or wrists before a sporting event. It is very elastic and provides minimal stability to joints — the goal being to maintain motion and function. The tape then provides multiple benefits including increased lymphatic drainage (after acute injuries), decreased pain with increased mechanoreceptor activity (pressure/motion sensitive nerve activation which blocks pain nerve signals), and improved muscle function/performance (to prevent re-injury or aggravation).

Kinesiology taping can help with the following symptoms or problems:

• Muscle pain and soreness
• Joint pain and stiffness
• Sprains and strains
• Swelling and inflammation
• Poor posture
• Reduced range of motion
• Carpal tunnel syndrome
• Tennis elbow

• Plantar fasciitis
• Shin splints
• Rotator cuff injuries
• Whiplash
• Headaches and migraines
• Menstrual cramps
• Lymphedema
• And more

In fact, Spidertech Kinesiology can be utilized for most musculoskeletal injuries. It can be used as a treatment own, but is most often combined with other methods of treatment to accelerate the healing process to help heal your injury sooner.
