KT Method

Middle Trapezius

Movie for broad-band (300kbps)

Patient position: seated

Apply the base of the Kinesio Tex to

the lateral surface of the acromion

process.

Place the shoulder in horizontal

adduction with the patient’s hand

resting on the opposite shoulder. Flex

the head and neck.

Place your hand on the acromion

process of the scapula and pull the

skin anteriorly and laterally while

simultaneously passively moving the

glenohumeral joint into internal

rotation. These motions apply tissue

stretch to the skin and underlying

fascia of the middle trapezius.

Peel the Kinesio Tex from the paper

liner and place the tape temporarily

on the skin. Do not activate the glue

by rubbing.

Apply the superior “y” tail to the

spinous process of the 7th cervical

vertebra.

Apply the inferior “y” tail to the

spinous process of the 4th thoracic

vertebra, following the spine of

scapula.
