The Kinesiotaping method, developed in 1971 by Japanese chiropractor Kenzo Kase, worked successfully with elastic tape for the first time. Since 1998 Kinesiotaping is also practised in Europe. The use of elastic tape made new applications possible. This method found more and more users in therapy as well as in sports.
