Kenzo Kase

Kenzo Kase is a Japanese veterinarian and researcher best known for developing Kinesio Tape, a type of elastic therapeutic tape. His innovations focus on creating a flexible, skin-friendly tape that can support muscles, improve circulation, and reduce pain without restricting movement. Kinesio Tape is widely used by athletes and physical therapists to enhance performance and aid recovery. Kase’s work emphasizes the importance of maintaining normal range of motion and facilitates natural healing processes through gentle, sustained tension applied to the skin.
