KT Tape, Pro Synthetic Kinesiology Athletic Tape, 20 Count, 10” Precut Strips

I twisted my knee and wanted something light and flexible to give me better stability when exercising and walking. This was a great buy. I would recommend this product. It helped with swelling. I was able to shower and go about my day with ease and greater comfort. The tape stayed in place and was easy to remove — just follow the directions to avoid any skin damage from the adhesive when removing.

Ordered with skepticism. Would it work? Is it hard to use? Would it stay in place? Will it look stupid? I often have a recurring pulled Achilles tendon injury from 30 years ago as a teen playing sports and if youre familiar, keeping my ankle at a right angle with the tendon extended and stable is key. But this time, I had some bones in my foot out of place after mowing outside in the wrong shoes. The bones popped back into place later that day once I soaked it, socked it and put on proper shoes, but my foot was still super sore - then on top of that, I forgot and I plopped down on the sofa with my feet under me to watch a good movie. Ugh! A ganglion cyst formed - like immediately. My poor foot... I was kind of tired of the old-school ace bandages - I have a drawer full. Since Amazon delivers CRAZY FAST, I decided to get the tape. LOVE IT! It works. Is it easy to use (KT has a YouTube video). It stays in place (a little too well, I soak it off in the shower). It looked SUPER COOL! Im a Steelers fan, so I got black and yellow - I looked like a cool high-paid Olympian hurt on the gridiron! (hee hee) Watch the KT YouTube video, start with clean, dry skin and press good and gentle for a good seal. If you want to use moisturizer, apply a small amount and let set for 15-20 minutes first. Wear with socks for a bit to help the seal and maybe while sleeping. If the tape lifts, its a wrap, it will just keep lifting and like tape, fibers on it render it useless. But theres plenty in each pack. I will say that the tape irritated my shin skin terribly (itchy, red, swollen skin) maybe moisturizer after cleaning and drying skin could have helped. I cant do bandage adhesive on my upper chest, face or bend points inside elbows or behind my knees and now - front of shins. :)

Ease of putting it on. Great instructions and display. 100% true about reducing swelling and pain. I got this for my knee and was able to keep Irvin for a couple of days even after showering did not come off. Easy to get off, I did not use anything to remove vitamins. Highly recommend this product if you have knee problems

This stuff really helped my tennis elbow. I wore it for months while working road construction and was eventually able to not use it at all. It’s not the stickiest K tape I’ve used but it’s effective.

The tape was easy to order and quick to come to the house. I like that the quality was very good. It doesnt peel or loosen at the edges. It was just what we needed for my husbands knees and my back.

My podiatrist recommended this after an ankle sprain. I like that it comes in sheets that are easy to use, with photo instructions depending on what area needs taped. It provides support, and doctor said it can help increase blood flow to the area to promote healing. It adhered well, even when I swam laps in the pool.

Product sticks well to skin if applied with appropriate pressure. Easy to use. Directions are in the box or can be found on YouTube.

KT tape is so useful for so many injuries and sprains. I rely on it a lot

Works very well and kept my knee feeling secure! My only complaint is that it holds water after a shower a lot more than I would like but overall it stays in place for days!

KT Tape is amazing. I have a hip injury from running that Ive had contrast MRI, physical therapy and pain reliving drugs. Nothing worked expect KT Tape. I can run 8 miles as long as Im wearing it with no pain.
