KT Tape, Original Cotton, Elastic Kinesiology Athletic Tape, 20 Count, 10” Precut Strips

If you have pain, its the best way.

I have 4 fractures in left foot works amazing helps so much would recommend 100% if you have any issues on body YOU need to try this out

I used this for tendonitis on the top of my foot. You have to apply it correctly for proper results. Watched a video on how to adhere the tape. I work out everyday and am on my feet all day at work. Within a few days, the pain and swelling went down. Highly recommend!

I saw a demonstration on YouTube for how to use this product for golfers elbow. I have been sidelined from golf for over a year and have a few years in the tendon so PT has been unsuccessful. I tried these and did well at the range and then played 18 holes successfully. I’m reconsidering having the surgery as I may be able to play with the help of this product. If you have golfers elbow, go onto YouTube and see how it is applied. It is easier if someone can help you but I’ve managed to put it on myself. I believe if I tried this product a year ago I would have been able to play a lot more golf.

I have been using this product for my knees for a couple of years now. It was amazing what a little tape could do for the pain. About a year ago the quality started getting erratic, one batch would rip off my skin when I pulled it off, the elasticity got weak and the texture changed. This last box caused me to update my review, the elasticity is almost non-existent and the adhesive is so weak that it comes loose after a couple of hours. This was a great product, what happened to quality control?

Used to help lift belly during my twin pregnancy. Worked better than the belly band I bought. Only problem I had was removing tape was occasionally painful. It was worth the relief I felt during the day though!

First off - the only reason I’m even taking away one star is because I wish it came in a not precut version. Or does it and I missed it? Idk, but my issue with the precut is it isn’t the right size for anything I use it for, so even though precut seems convenient I always have to cut it anyways and end up wasting a ton of tape. But anyways, the product itself is great - IF you apply it correctly. Everyone here with adhesion issues claim they applied it properly or applied it “exactly how their physical therapist did it” but I’ve been able to put this stuff on and it last 3 days so….. I can’t imagine they’re doing it properly. Is more expensive tape better? Probably, but I’ll tell you how I apply this and for me it works just fine. Clean skin seems obviously but I’ll say it anyways. Use an alcohol wipe if you have oily skin. But aside from the obvious, there’s 2 key tips to making it stick that I’d be willing to bet people aren’t doing. 1. The first like.. 1.5-2” of the tape - just stick that on your skin without pulling it tight. Then hold that area down while pulling the tape tightly over the area you’re treating. And then the last 1.5-2” same thing, don’t pull that part tight, just hold the end of the tightly pulled tape section and just stick the end on without pulling. It needs that bit of leeway at the beginning and end otherwise yes, it’s just gonna roll up into itself and not stick. 2. Once it’s applied you need to rub it to create some friction/heat. It WILL NOT stick long if you don’t do this. Be careful at the ends to not accidentally pull it back while rubbing it, but this part is key to getting it to stick. I have several ailments I use this for but lately I’ve been using it for my plantar fasciitis rather than your traditional plantar fasciitis fixes. Wearing shoes and insoles with arch support seemed to be making it worse for me, so I went in the opposite direction and started wearing more minimalist/neutral shoes with wide toe box, and focusing on stretching and strengthening my feet. It’s helping, but sometimes I still have pain and that’s when I use this tape. It gives me just enough support without being as extreme/unnatural as insoles. I suppose I could use a compression sock for the same effect, but I like using the tape because I can use more or less tape depending on how much support I want.

Good price and help me alot with pain

This is not the genuine KT tape. I have been buying KT tape from places like Jewel etc, and it has been my go-to for knee pain, as well as any other injuries that may pop up. The store-bought KT tape is amazing, it is very comfortable, the fabric feels nice and soft, and provides the needed support. Store-bought tape would last me forever, as the adhesive is strong enough, but also gentle on the skin. Ordered this stuff, and even out of the box, it did not look the same. Muted color, less stretch, and fabric felt plastic. Upon application, the edges would begin peeling off immediately. I have gone to sleep with tape, and woken up with no tape. It does not last 1-3 days as advertised. The store-bought tape would last me well past the 3 days and I would only remove it to let my skin breathe, and not because it fell off. Don’t waste your money here. This is not the genuine product. It does the job but for the same price you could actually have a working product that would stay on the entire 3 days or longer (yes, the original tape, not even the Pro).

Just what I needed
