Dr. Carpenter employs the use of the Kinesio Taping Method on his patients to reduce pain and inflammation, relax overused muscles, and to support muscles in movement as this type of taping is non-restrictive and allows for full range of motion. By contrast, standard athletic taping is used to wrap the joint for stabilization and support, obstructing the flow of bodily fluid as an undesirable side effect.

Kinesio Taping has been shown to be successful in addressing a wide variety of issues – anything from lower back conditions, knee conditions, shoulder conditions, hamstring, calf, groin injury, plantar fasciitis, ankle sprains, and as an athletic preventative injury method.
