Dr. Kase's legacy will forever be unmatched in the industry that he helped create and even with a large, lasting Kinesio footprint, he continues to forge new paths with his endless quest to further his understanding on how the human body works. The underlying theory that led Dr. Kase to invent the tape more than 40 years ago was based on his profound understanding of how the human body works and how the skin and brain communicate constantly to regulate the body's responses to its internal and external environment.
