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

These are great, very effective, but i wish the package contains more the roll is very small

Kinesiology studies how movement impacts our health and wellbeing to help repair/increase our physical mobility...KT tape is not a cure for any injury.I have used it daily for over 10 years for my damaged right ACL&MCL along with sensible exercises to maintain my very active life in the country on a small hobby farm. I have learned from experience that”similar brands” do not work for this older woman in the way original KT tape does.It also gives me more freedom of movement than other methods(ACE bandages,braces,etc)of support.

I have permanent damage in my foot after fracturing it and tearing tendons. I am a dancer and KT take saved my life! It stays on for up to 4 days without peeling for me with daily showers.

The tape initially seemed to provide some relief and adheres fine when not performing anything athletic, in fact pulling it off was not fun if you have hair on your legs. But I toughed it out because I’m a man. Then I used the tape while playing basketball and within 15 minutes the tape was falling off. So I’ll only be using it when doing light work.

I tore my PCL, meniscus, and completely tore my ACL in my knee back in 2012 as a result of a car accident. I have struggled with my knee and have had a ACL reconstruction, PCL repair twice, meniscus repair twice, and a lateral release of my knee cap due to a tendon being too tight and my knee cap not moving in the correct place resulting in severe pain. The lateral release has definitely helped with my pain, but as of late I have been getting excruciating pain when walking that hits right in the middle of my knee and radiates all throughout and brings me down to the ground most of the time. I have struggled with getting my knee cap to cooperate in the healing process even a year later and it still wants to go to the side when flexed (because of the lateral release). The anti inflammatory pills, huge knee braces, icing, and PT exercises haven’t seemed to help. This product has mixed reviews, but I decided to try it based off the fact that the reviews for knees seemed good. I applied it in a way to keep my kneecap from going to the side when flexed. It is not a complete fix for my issue, but I have to say as soon as I put it on and started walking around I could tell such a difference! The pain is much less severe, and it feels a lot less like a constant thought of “is this step about to take me out” and more like “oh I can keep doing things and not think about it”. I would definitely recommend this product to anyone with knee pain from injuries that is looking for something to help on more active days! I needed to share this ASAP, so I haven’t had it on for long. I noticed a lot of people complaining of peeling, but it looks as though those strips were applied too stretched out and that is why they are peeling. I completely removed the backing, then I stuck the strip at one point with my knee straight out and gave it a LIGHT stretch to compensate for bending my knee, and stuck the rest of the strip down. So far, there is no sign of peeling. I will update my review when I have worn these for a few days. Overall, I am so very happy with my purchase! Update: I am remodeling my kitchen, so at the end of the day after lots of bending, getting up and down, being in weird positions, I was having some issues with my knee and did have a sharp pain that took me down. My chiropractor told me to apply differently (updated pic: bend knee and apply strips in a V shape around knee, then straighten knee and add a strip snug below knee cap). This pic is 3 days after wearing the tape, no peeling! I will note that I have not submerged it in water at all though. I have not have any of the sharp pains at all! I still stand by it being a great tool to use!

I highly recommend this stuff to anyone who has plantar fasciitis or broken ribs! This tape has saved us several times!

Save your money, this does nothing to help. Research have been made and has 0 effects on recovery or help. It’s just placebo to sell you an expensive tape. But if that works for you then go ahed for me it didn’t.

Works well

Used it to stave off my knee pain long enough to run a 5K. It did the trick and then some.

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?
