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

Im not an athlete and had no idea what I was looking for - Tried several brands - This was by far the best one - Good adhesive - Comfortable

Pre-cut strips eliminate trimming. Thicker fabric provides better support and lasts 3-4 days (just dry it well after showers). The included instructions are easy to understand, even for a newbie but consult a pro for your specific injury to make sure you are taping correctly (i.e., you put no stretch on the last 2-3” on each end, and mild to moderate stretch across the ares that need support. Again, the included instructions are great, but there are a number of YouTube videos on the topic as well. I have some Meniscus and MCL pain (64 yrs old) when I go cycling or walking, especially longer distances. Without the KT, the ache gets to 6-7 on the pain scale. With the KT, it’s closer to 2-3. I can’t comfortably wear a full knee brace while cycling, but the KT gives me great breathable support (I cycled 64 miles on my 64th birthday with only mild soreness the next day). Try this! It has been a fantastic find for me.

back and arm

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.

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

Not sure if this the production line and/or quality of this particular color, beige, it did not adhere at all like the other two colors, blue and black, I used many times in the past and stayed at least 2 days! It is worst than the cotton version I used, It kept coming off as I start running, knees mostly but lower back also did not stay after 1st time I took shower!

I’ve use this product multiple times in the past. I’ve used the original version as well as the pro. In the past, even the original would last for two or three days as advertised, but the pro, which is supposed to last 4 to 7 days, has not managed to last even overnight. I have used up the entire roll of strips and not one application has lasted overnight for a second day. Part of the time the glue is not sticking to my skin, but part of the time the tape is not sticking to a previous piece of tape. As I’ve said, I have used this product in the past and now how to apply it. After the first time it didn’t stick, I rewatched an application video to make sure I had applied it correctly. I had. I used the right amount of stretch and proceeded to give a friction rub afterwards to help as recommended. It didn’t matter if my skin was freshly washed or completely dry. It didn’t matter if I put lotion on the night before or not. It didn’t matter if I was wearing shorts, capris or jeans (application was on the knees). None of the applications stayed for a second day.

I have a connective tissue disorder (EDS) that causes my joints to be hyper mobile. My knees, regardless of how much PT I do to strengthen, still dislocate, as do my elbows and many smaller joints like fingers. During the hotter months, my joints get worse, and the colder months make my joints stiffer and therefore less painful. I had a friend recommend these to me after they had a sports injury. Best. Idea. Ever. I slap these babies on and around my knees and look out world, I’m held together with tape, but I’m coming through!! I do have to be careful removing the tape, just because I bruise easily and can tear my skin very easily, but the adhesion is spectacular! These bad boys aren’t moving anywhere! I also love that they are discreet, so I can still wear clothes without a bulky and uncomfortable knee brace. They help alleviate some pain, but they’re not perfect. It would be lovely if they made some with some pain relieving gel inside. I’m still hyper mobile with them on, but I can still go on jogs in the summer like I would in the winter. If you have a connective tissue disorder or have bad joints that need some support, definitely give these a go!

My husband decided to try this after he had a tennis elbow injury. He loves this tape and it keeps the pain at bay for him to be able to do his job

They don’t really stay for a whole day Does not really stay applied for the whole day I’m trying my best to use them on the shoulder that is really bad
