John, is there a way to use kinesiology tape for muscle spasms in the upper back?

First off, a huge thank you for all the help you provide for so many of us. Chronic cervical pain/instability from an old whiplash injury. I visit my chiropractor weekly, and the first joint to always become locked is c7-T1, about 2-3 days after adjustment. Would this type of kinesio taping help hold that joint in place? Once that becomes locked, the rest of my cervical spine follows suit like a domino effect.

Thanks in advance

10-15% 30% or 50% etc of stretch the tape I don’t understand why do we have to stretch different percent of stretch the tape. If we stretch too much the skin and subcutaneous or superficial layer will up and increase blood circulation? I know just one thing Ktape help increase blood circulation that why patients feel better immediately after treatment. Could u pls tell me about physiology of that difference percent of stretch the tape? Btw thank u
