Kinesio Core Support Taping
Duration: 30-45 mins | Price: Stand-Alone Session: $95 Add-On (with another service): $50
Location: In-home service (Toronto & surrounding areas)
Gentle support for your core, posture, and healing journey
Kinesio Taping is a gentle, non-invasive technique using skin-friendly elastic tape to provide targeted support to muscles, joints, and tissues.
During pregnancy and postpartum, this can help you feel more lifted, aligned, and comfortable as your body undergoes significant changes.
Each taping session is performed by a Registered Nurse trained in perinatal care, ensuring that every application is both safe and tailored to your specific stage — whether you’re expecting, newly postpartum, or recovering from a cesarean birth.
Prenatal Taping Benefits
During pregnancy, kinesio taping can:
Relieve pelvic, lower back, and abdominal discomfort
Support the core and posture as your baby grows
Ease the “heavy belly” sensation
Reduce mild swelling and muscle strain
Encourage better alignment and breathing mechanics
Taping is applied with the skin’s natural movement in mind — flexible enough to allow freedom, yet supportive enough to make you feel instantly more comfortable and balanced.
Postpartum Taping Benefits
After birth, kinesio taping can be used to:
Support abdominal muscles and fascia as they heal
Encourage core stability and gentle activation
Provide relief from lower back pain or heaviness
Support recovery from diastasis recti (ab separation)
Enhance comfort while lifting, feeding, or carrying baby
This is especially valuable in the early weeks when ligaments remain softened by pregnancy hormones, and the core needs gentle, guided reactivation — not strain.
When to Book
Vaginal Birth: Safe to book 48–72 hours postpartum (if recovery is uncomplicated)
Cesarean Birth: Can be booked 10–15 days postpartum with medical clearance
Each session includes a brief nursing assessment to ensure safety and determine the most appropriate taping method for your body and recovery stage.

What to Expect
Each taping session begins with a short nursing assessment of the area to be taped.
The tape is then carefully applied to follow your body’s natural lines and muscle movement.
It’s water-resistant, breathable, and safe for sensitive skin — typically lasting 3–5 days.
You’ll leave the session with:
Personalized aftercare instructions
Guidance on how long to keep the tape on
Signs to watch for if your tape needs adjusting or replacing
Why Clients Love This Service
Many clients report that core taping made them feel supported without feeling constricted and provided physical relief and emotional reassurance that their body is being cared for as it heals.
It’s subtle but powerful — the kind of comfort that makes everyday movement, feeding, and recovery feel lighter and more supported.
