K-Taping Therapy and the educational programmes of the K-Taping Academy have been internationally recognised for many years. In addition to Germany, Austria, and Switzerland, the programmes are accredited and acknowledged by professional associations in countries including France, Canada, the United States, Estonia, Poland, and Hong Kong, as well as in numerous other countries worldwide.

Depending on the country and professional association, participants may receive continuing education credits for attending the courses. In many cases, the programmes are also eligible for governmental or regional funding support programmes.

Anyone wishing to apply the wide range of applications of the K-Taping-Therapy method professionally and safely should complete the educational programmes offered by the K-Taping Academy.

The precise execution of the various application techniques, the professional handling of the elastic K-Tape, and the correct positioning of patients, athletes, or infants are taught through hands-on practical training under the guidance of experienced instructors.

This transforms an elastic tape into a unique therapeutic tool that supports therapists, physicians, midwives, speech therapists, and athletic trainers in their daily practice.

One of the key objectives of the K-Taping Academy is to ensure and continuously develop the high quality standards of our professional education and training programmes on a national and international level.

To ensure consistently high standards and to support continuous improvement, we have maintained an ISO 9001-certified Quality Management System for many years, certified by TÜV Süd.
