Taping
What is Taping?
Therapeutic Taping is believed to have several physiological effects on the body, although the scientific evidence supporting some of these effects is still being investigated. Therapeutic tape is thought to reduce pain, improve circulation, and support muscle and joints. It may also enhance proprioception (the body's awareness of its position in space) and potentially influence neural activity related to coordination and sensation.

What makes HEALI tape different?
Heali Tape is a high quality kinesiology tape that offers the added benefit of being infused with both magnesium and menthol.
Magnesium is an element that helps with so many enzymatic reactions in our body. It is also one of the most common minerals depleted in our population. Studies have shown that Magnesium overall is beneficial for enhancing muscle flexibility, reducing lactic acid buildup, and helping cramps, twitches, and spasms. Magnesium serves as an important electrolyte in maintaining cellular function.
Menthol, widely used in topical analgesics, quickly relieves minor aches and pains while providing a cooling sensation. It operates on the pain gate theory, temporarily blocking pain signals that normally would be sent to your brain. Additionally, it offers benefits such as capillary dilation, enhanced skin absorption, nerve numbing, and anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial effects, providing versatile pain and itch relief.
