Kinesio Taping

Kinesio taping supports muscles and joints with elastic tape applied to the skin. Its purpose is not to restrict movement but to give the area feedback that makes movement more comfortable. Fizyoterapist Aydın Ali uses taping as a supportive application: the tape on its own is not a treatment, but a tool that completes the exercise programme.

A kinesio taping application

When is it needed?

  • Strain and a feeling of instability during exercise
  • Swelling following an injury
  • Load-related pain around the shoulder and knee
  • Muscle fatigue accompanying poor posture
  • Support during training and competition periods for athletes

What we do

  • Choosing the taping type to suit the complaint and movement
  • Application aimed at muscle, joint or swelling
  • Checking the skin under the tape
  • Demonstrating the exercises to do while taped
  • Planning how long the tape should stay on

Kinesio Taping in Bursa Nilüfer

Fizyoterapist Aydın Ali provides one-to-one care for kinesio taping at the clinic in Bursa Nilüfer — in Fethiye Mahallesi, on Kelebek Sokak, at a central point of Nilüfer, opposite the Fethiye covered market.

It is a short trip by car or public transport from İhsaniye, Odunluk, Balat, Özlüce, Ataevler, 23 Nisan and the surrounding areas. Every session is one-to-one, assessment-based and tailored to you.

Movement comes back once pain eases

In back and neck complaints, pain doesn't just cause discomfort — it makes the person avoid movement. The longer avoidance continues, the more muscles weaken and the longer the complaint lasts. Breaking this cycle means being able to start moving before the pain has eased.

Fizyoterapist Aydın Ali uses taping during this transition period, as support for exercise. Tape isn't a standalone treatment and isn't presented as one; it makes daily movements more comfortable, which makes it easier for the programme to get started. Its effect lasts a few days — the real work happens in the exercise done during that time.

How long does the tape stay on?

The applied tape can usually stay on the skin for a few days and does not stop you showering. If itching, redness or discomfort appears on the skin, the tape should be removed.

Is it enough on its own?

No. Tape helps movement feel more comfortable; it does not remove the source of the complaint. It is therefore always used together with assessment and an exercise programme.

Frequently asked questions

Can the tape irritate the skin?

Most people have no issue, though sensitive skin can occasionally show redness. If you have a known tape allergy, let us know before the application.

Can I exercise with the tape on?

Yes — taping is mostly applied precisely to give support during movement. Which movements you can return to, and at what intensity, is determined after assessment.
