Yup!

I used to have to do kinesio-taping on my knee too!

In my case, I had injured the knee when someone fell on it in a class V rapid. One muscle was contracting and pulling my whole kneecap out of line when I walked, and my leg would kick out from underneath me whenever I tried to walk!

I did the taping, biofeedback, and specific exercises to retrain the muscles around the knee. I avoided surgery and I walk normally now ( most of the time!)
