Product Description
Kinesio® Tex Tape Color: Blue, 2" x 5.5yd. (5cm x 5m) One Roll. Kinesio Athletic Tape is a modality treatment based on the body's own natural healing process. The major effects of Kinesio taping are correcting muscle function, improving circulation of blood and lymph, relieving pain, and repositioning the subluxation joints. Kinesio Athletic Tape is latex free, and is durable for 3-4 days of use. Kinesio Athletic Tape is an elastic athletic tape of extremely high quality, and was specifically designed by Dr. Kenzo Kase to provide exceptional results for Kinesio Taping. Kinesio Athletic Tape was designed to be worn on the skin for an extended period of time (3-4 days) without irritation, as well as during strenuous exercise or hydrotherapy. The adhesive is not only heat activated, but also will not leave any residue when removed. Kinesio® Athletic Tape is FDA approved, and patent protected. Kinesio® Athletic Tape has an elasticity of 140%, which matches the same basic elasticity found in ones skin and muscles, allowing Kinesio taping to work with your body. This provides full range of motion, support, and stability, without adversely affecting the natural range of motion. For excellent results, Kinesio® Athletic Tape should be applied at least 30 minutes prior to exercise in order for the heat activated adhesive to adjust and bond with the skin temperature. In conjunction with the Kinesio Taping Method, Kinesio Athletic Tape is frequently used for clinical applications such as patella femoral, shin splints, plantar fasciitis, carpal tunnel syndrome, rotator cuff, etc. Kinesio Athletic Tape is more expensive than conventional athletic tape, but due to the quality and usage, Kinesio Athletic Tape is actually more economical Product photo may not exactly match the product offered for sale.

5 out of 5 stars Awesome results using Kinesio Tape   November 13, 2009
Mike Zrodlo (Valencia, CA)
I have good results using Kinesio tape. I have rotator cup tendinitis and for now I can use my shoulder, workout lightly with less pain using the tape which so far has been my best treatment.



5 out of 5 stars Worked Miracles   October 9, 2009
Jim in Arizona (Tucson, Az. USA)
I'd hurt my knee stumbling off a sidewalk curb about 4 yrs prior to trying this product. I had been to the doctors and therapists multiple times, but they couldn't find a way to relieve the chronic pain that the injury had produced. During one session at the therapist, my usual therapist was on vacation, and I got his stand-in. She looked at my records, and then asked if I'd ever tried Kenesio tape. I'd not. She gave me a sample and showed me how to wrap my knee. I bought this stuff and within 4 weeks the pain was completely gone. About 2X per year I tend to do something to aggravate the knee, the pain comes back, I put the kenesio tape on, and within a couple of days it's gone again. I swear by this stuff.


1 out of 5 stars Better that the rest!!!   September 19, 2009
Gordon Meehl (atlanta)
while this id good.. i found ROCKTAPE www.rocktape.com to be infinitely better. it's stickier, stretchier, the company is much more accessible and friendly. They also have a lot of really cool colors. Who cares if k tape pays keri walsh to wear their tape... I've seen way more elite runners, cyclist, and triathletes using ROCKTAPE. K Tape is old school... i encourage everyone to at least give ROCKtape a try as a comparison.

5 out of 5 stars magic tape   September 5, 2009
Iris A., Grimm (boston, ma)
I am an avid soccer player, often playing 3-4 times a week. After laterally tearing my Achilles tendon in several places a year ago I was desperate to get back to playing. After months of physical therapy, and a serious stretching routine, I was able to return to the field, but not without constant pain, and there was no way I could play more than once or twice a week. I had read about Kinesio Tape in Runner's World magazine and after talking with some other soccer players who used it for Achilles injuries decided to give it a try. This tape is amazing! I use it every time I play and am back to playing 4 times a week, with no pain at all. Seriously this tape works like magic, its super comfortable to wear, you don't even feel it on your skin. It is also very simple to apply yourself at home in just a few minutes. I would recommend this tape to anyone with a healed Achilles injury looking to get back into action.
