Kinesiology Taping in Troy, IL: Troy Pain Relief Center provides this method to stabilize the injured area by lightly adhering to the skin and applying pressure to the tissues the tape is wrapped.
What is Kinesiology Taping?
Kinesio Taping is a method used by rehab specialists to add stability and support to a region. The elastic Kinesio Tape is used to mimic a therapists hands and was first presented by Dr. Kenzo Kase. It is used for pain management, soft tissue injury, and tissues/joint malalignment. Patients often feel immediate relief and sometimes gradual relief of symptoms.
Kinesiology tape is a breathable, stretchable material, usually made out of cotton or a cotton blend. This tape does not restrict or immobilize the area of application due to its elastic quality and is able to adhere to the skin with a sweat and water-proof adhesive material. This material aims to provide support by simply wrapping the muscles and surrounding tissues.
How does Kinesiology Tape work?
Kinesiology taping works with a special tape that helps improve circulation, support muscles, allow the internal injury to heal, and help prevent further muscle injury while still allowing appropriate range of motion. It also helps to stabilize the injured area by lightly adhering to the skin and applying pressure to the tissues the tape is wrapped around.
Who can benefit from Kinesiology Tape?
Everyone can benefit from kinesiology tape. Doesn’t matter if you are a younger athlete with pain from overused or injured muscles or an elderly person suffering from degenerative joint disease. Any soft-tissue injury or pain is indication for the use of kinesiology taping.

If you are in pain, Troy Pain Relief Center is the place to go. Let me preface this review by stating that before I started seeing Dr. Burg in March, I did not believe in chiropractors. I believed it to be “Quack Medicine!” After seeing pain management docs for nearly a year and still in debilitating pain, I went to see Dr. Burg. I told him I didn’t believe he could help me but I was desperate and was grasping at straws. He did not get offended, he just took his time and explained how all the different treatments could help relieve my pain. My son was getting married in 8 weeks but I was in so much pain there was no way I could attend. Not only was I able to attend, I actually danced! I am in no means pain free, but the pain has decreased dramatically. Dr. Burg never said he could cure me, and more than that, he even recommended I see a neurosurgeon for an area of pain he could not fix. He never rushes you and will take all the time you need to understand how the back works and how his treatments will help. I also get weekly therapeutic massage with Tonya. She is amazing! She has taught me how to relax. I thought I knew how, but I didn’t. If I don’t get relief, she tries a different technique. Her hands are magical!!! She is the most compassionate person I have met in a long time. She truly loves what she does. Since my insurance doesn’t cover chiropractor treatments, they set up a payment plan for me and getting the massage only costs me an extra $16 when combined with Dr. Burg’s treatments! There are no words to explain the gatitude I feel for Dr. Burg and Tonya. I am now a believer!!!!!!!!!!!!

Very clean and professional environment !! I suffer from a herniated disc in my neck and scoliosis in my neck . I have been in pain and had a headache for 2 months…I’ve gone through 2 hydrocodone prescriptions (60 pills) and 2 muscle relaxer prescriptions (60 more pills) looking for relief!! My PC DR. Told me I would need to do pain management/surgery to find relief. I mistakenly happened upon Dr Berg while in search of a pain management Dr and it was a true blessing!!! After A very professional consultation and adjustment along with a few other procedures I am so happy to say I am headache free going on three days now!!! Dr. Berg explained everything to me in detail and showed me my x-rays and pointed out my problem areas, it was a relief to hear that I can absolutely be pain free and drug free!!! I would highly recommend an appointment with Dr. Berg if you are experiencing headaches caused from herniated disc’s, muscle issues and or back and neck related pain.
