Vicky has a broad background in continuous professional development, having learned a variety of treatment approaches from different countries. She integrates the best assessment and treatment methods to meet each patient’s individual needs and provide truly personalised care.
In 2017, she became a Certified Kinesio Taping Instructor (CKTI) through Kinesio University. A year later, she was invited to join the Education Committee of the Kinesio Taping Association International (KTAI), where she continues to share her knowledge and expertise globally.
As one of Dr. Kenzo Kase’s disciples, Vicky accompanied him to China and South Korea for taping symposiums, workshops, and seminars, serving as his translator during patient treatments. This close mentorship allowed her to witness Dr. Kase’s advanced taping biomechanics firsthand—insights that shaped her own deep understanding of the method.
Vicky has contributed significantly to the advancement of Kinesio Taping through both research and teaching. In 2018, she presented her study on Kinesio taping for menstrual pain at the Seoul Kinesio Taping Symposium. During the COVID-19 pandemic, she continued to engage with the global physiotherapy community through online lectures, including “Superficial and Deep Lymphatic Taping” at the 36th Kinesio Taping Academic and Clinical Symposium hosted by Kinesio Japan. She also explored innovative applications, such as Kinesio taping for dogs’ anxiety, presented at the 2021 International Kinesio Recertification Symposium in USA.
Her advanced training includes KT4 Sports and Orthopaedics (USA, 2018) and KT4 Lymphatics (2020). She became the first instructor worldwide to deliver both KT4 Sports & Orthopaedics and KT4 Lymphatics courses in Hong Kong. Her expertise drew the attention of Advanced Nurse Practitioners within the Hospital Authority, leading to seminars on lymphatic taping for breast cancer patients with lymphedema.
Now based in New Zealand, Vicky applies Kinesio taping daily in her clinical practice while continuing to promote its development worldwide. She remains deeply grateful to Dr. Kase for inspiring her to be part of the mission of “Taping the world for health.”emporary relief.
