What it is

Kinesiology is the study of how the human body moves. In practice, it means a careful analysis of your own movement: how you walk, how you bend, how you lift something, how you run or how you sit for long hours at a desk.

Pain often shows up in one place while the cause lies somewhere else. A stiff hip can put strain on your lower back. An unstable ankle can change the way your knee takes load. A movement assessment helps us see the whole picture.

How we work at Reset Lab

The assessment is based on observation and simple functional tests, such as squats, balance, bending and rotation. Where it helps, we may also use video, so you can see what we’re seeing.

Based on the findings, we design targeted exercises and corrections. Kinesio Taping can be used as a supportive tool:

  • to give a sense of support to a sensitive area
  • as a reminder of better posture or alignment
  • between sessions, while strength is being built

The tape doesn’t fix the problem on its own. The evidence on its effectiveness is mixed, so we see it as an aid alongside exercise rather than a main treatment.

What to expect in your first session

Wear comfortable clothes that leave your joints visible, and bring the shoes you run or train in if they’re relevant to the problem.

We’ll start with your history and your goals. Next comes the movement analysis, and then we’ll talk through the findings in plain language: what your body does well and where it needs support.

You’ll leave with a few targeted exercises and, if it makes sense in your case, a first taping. At later sessions we re-check your movement, so you can see your progress for yourself.

FAQ

Kinesiology: your common questions.

What exactly is Kinesio Taping?

It's an elastic tape that sticks to the skin and still lets you move freely. Many people feel it gives them support and relief, although the scientific evidence is mixed, which is why we use it as a complementary tool.

How long does the tape stay on?

Usually a few days, and you can shower as normal. If you notice itching or skin irritation, remove it carefully.

Is special equipment needed for movement analysis?

Not necessarily. The core assessment is done through observation and functional tests, and in some cases video may also be used for a more detailed analysis.
