2026 Kinesio Medical Taping
Research Symposium:
Atlas University, Istanbul, Turkey
Between October 2-4, 2026, I was fortunate to attend and present at the Kinesio Medical Taping Research Symposium. Sponsored by Kinesio Turkey and held at Atlas University, the three days were full of interesting research, case studies, and breakout sessions. From seasoned clinicians to aspiring students, I enjoyed learning from other practitioners and researchers about the future of Kinesio Taping. I am also grateful to have presented my case report on the use of Kinesio Medical Taping as an Alternative Pain Modality in an Older Adult with Acute-on-Chronic Pancreatitis. Truly a once-in-a-lifetime experience that I will never forget!
