About Kinesio Taping A sticky favourite with world-class athletes, this Japanese-born tape is comprised of an elastic cotton strip with an acrylic adhesive and is used to limit or encourage a specific motion at a joint. 

The Merchant Putting their backs into the picture, Gosforth’s Shield Clinic offers sessions backed up by computerised spinal analysis and a range of diagnostic techniques. Using deep-tissue massage, inversion therapy, and postural analysis, Alan Scott and his team aim to provide bespoke strategies to improve wellbeing. The Session A consultation is followed by a Kinesio taping treatment on a chosen area, aiming to soothe niggling aches and pains. Those opting for a postural analysis as well will have photos of their posture taken from front and side for computerised examination. This will be followed by one-to-one exercise tuition, tailored to individual needs, and aiming to instil new posture habits. Clients will also receive a 40% discount on further treatment costs.
