DM #50

DM #50: Taping isn't rocket science. Neither is any technique out there, to be completely honest. People like to complicate things to make themselves feel smart, or something like that. I don't know.
Want to know where the real challenge is? Where the real magic is? Where you should really be expending your brainpower? Understanding why you're doing the technique in the first place.
Kinesiology taping is absolutely one of my favorite modalities. Heck, I work for @RockTape. I love the stuff! But every time I hear some convoluted explanation as to how to apply the tape, or see a patient recoil at the idea of applying the tape themselves because it's just so complex, I can't help but look like this guy ?

It's just not that difficult. When you see me, you're not paying me because I know how to put on tape. You're paying me because I know WHY to put on tape.
Take-home message? Respect the HOW, but worship the WHY.
