Taping is used in various ways to help assist with movement mechanics, promote joint stability during movement, and promote healing at injured sites. Emmanuel Nanang (Sports Therapist)

Plantar fasciitis acts like a bowstring to maintain and provide support absorbing shock/ force going through the foot during movement. The use of Non-surgical methods such as stretching, exercise, and other such modalities focus on relieving symptoms, however, orthotics and taping techniques aim to address the main issue: poor foot biomechanics.

People try various treatment methods without the right practitioner guiding them, and this often results in further suffering, increased expenses, and a poorer quality of life.

      • Movement is altered due to pain, and posture is affected over time leading to further complications at the knees, hips, and spine.
    • Poorer healing speeds which lead to years of management and possibly expensive treatment fees.
