Kevin Gets Certified!



This weekend Kevin is getting certified in Kinesio Taping!  I am so excited.  You might remember what it is from the Olympics when you saw Kerri Walsh wearing it!
Kevin is SO excited to be able to offer this to his patients.  Kinesio tape is applied to the skin in specific patterns, depending on the injury, a technique designed to create support and guide injured muscles and joints without limiting range of motion.  In addition to supporting injured muscles and joints, the kinesio taping method helps relieve pain by lifting the skin, allowing blood to flow more freely to the injured area. The tape is also widely used in pediatric physical therapy for muscle disorders like cerebral palsy.

Check out this interview with a chiropractor about Kinesio Tape!  VERY COOL!


Here are some other athletes sporting the Kinesio tape at the Olympics...

While Kevin does this all weekend I am going to clean the house, shop for baby shower invites for Laura's baby shower and do laundry!

Have a great weekend!
