We are all human beings, and each of us has a physical body. We also all have a mind, and we all have emotions. In the same way that we all have a state of physical health, we all have a state of mental health. Mental health is more than the absence of mental illness.

Here’s something to think about: You might have an illness or a disease, say diabetes. Maybe you deal with the symptoms through diet, physical activity, medication or in other ways. When it comes to your physical health, you might feel absolutely great.

Kinesiology tape has been a popular topic lately and there is a lot of information but looking at the clinical studies and evaluating if using this tool is appropriate for you and your clients is important.  I took a course back in 2011 and I like having tape as tool I can use to help my clients.  I consistently use the tape for common things like posture resetting and alignment, stabilizing knees, and for different pain issues.
