Episode 109 KT Tape or Knee Braces for Injury-Prone runDisney Runners Races

In this episode of Running to the Castle you’ll learn what to do when you’re thinking you may need KT tape or knee braces to support your knee during your training.

KT Tape and Knee braces add external support to your knee and you may need them. There may be benefit from doing other things to give your knee support from the inside.

In this episode I discuss ways to determine which to use.

Hi! I’m Ali. I’ve been in the health and wellness space since graduating with a Doctor of Physical Therapy degree in 2012. I worked in the typical outpatient clinic with active men and women with orthopedic injuries (shin splints, Achilles tendonitis, muscle and ligament tears, knee pain, IT Band pain, plantar fasciitis, and hip and knee arthritis until 2018 at which point I started Mobile Physical Therapy in Las Vegas, Nevada. Over the past few years I’ve transitioned to helping women running runDisney races after they’ve had an injury and they want to finish strong and enjoy the rest of their runcation.
