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

My daughter plays volleyball and has lots of knee problems problems. She’s always used KT tape and this certain brand helps A LOT! And the blue color was so cute. 10/10

I have patellofemoral syndrome in my left leg that I developed while hiking the White Mountains in New Hampshire. I did a lot of research and PT stretches and found that taping my knee provided the most relief. I not tape my knees before any vigorous physical activity and this tape in particular holds up to the sweat and the rubbing of my hiking pants. I’ve tried other kinesiology tapes, but this brand is the best!

I work at a warehouse and these tape have been helping me a lot with rotator cuff pain. When not wearing them, the difference is noticeable. They can stay on my skin for 3-4 days even with constant shower. Only thing is, like other reviews mentioned, these tape cause rashes and irritation on skin. Changing them every 2 days seems to be helping with the rashes but not with itchiness while wearing them.

I have a shoulder pain that becomes unbearable at times at work with some repetitive motion I do lifting a heat sealing machine. I tried everything from creams to pills to vitamins and herbs and heat and cool patches. Nothing worked ! Based on all the reviews I bought this and I am happy with it. The reason I dont give it 5 stars is because it helps reduce the pain ( and it does so greatly) but it does not eliminate it all together. And to be quite fair about it I dont recall the company making any promises to eliminate 100% of pain. The strips also to my surprise helps give my arm support making it not so hard to do the lifting. I made the mistake of thinking the tighter I put it on the better and that was a bad idea. I got blisters and bad red marks that burned for a couple of weeks. So I would caution you to make them tight but not too tight. I was in Walmart the other day and I was surprised to see they were selling these. I was relieved to see I got them cheaper on Amazon ! That always makes me feel good. And keep in mind that was at MY local Walmart and I have no way of knowing what they sell for at other locations. I really hope that helps and hope anybody with muscle pain can get the relief I did with these or even more! [email protected]

I have chronic shoulder bursitis, and I refuse to stop living an active life. KT tape allows me to stay active without the shoulder pain.

I use it on my lower back for pain I didn’t think it was gonna work it did give me some relief

Ive used KT Tape off and on for a chronic ankle problem I got from running. When it flared up Id use some tape on it which would provide some relief. The only issue I had with KT Tapes original product was that since I used it on my ankle and foot, the ends of the tape would tend to come loose when you put you shoes and socks on and took them off. And once the ends come loose, its not long before the whole piece of tape wont stay. KT Tape advertises that it will stay on and can be worn for up to 5 days and occasionally I would get that much use out of it, but many times it would only last a day or two. Enter KT Tape Pro. I read a very positive review of it from someone I follow on Twitter and since I already knew the tape worked for me as far as providing relief from my injury, I decided to try a roll of their pro product. Im happy to say it works as advertised. If you apply it as directed (make sure to burnish it down good), it stays on. For several days. If youre wearing it on your feet, you still need to take some care putting on and taking off socks, but as long as you do that, you can wear it for a few days before it needs to be removed. If youve used KT Tapes original product, you will notice KT Tape Pro doesnt have the pre-cut split down the center of each piece. IMO, this is a change for the better. In many applications of the tape, you dont want to split it and its much easier to lay it down as a single piece without that pre-cut split. And if you do need that, its simple enough to do it yourself with a pair of scissors. All in all, a definite improvement on the original KT Tape. Highly recommended.

In terms of relief and support, the results were as flat as a deflated football. The tape did little to alleviate my discomfort or enhance my performance, making me question the steep price tag. To sum up, the KT Tape was a disappointing investment - it was more of a false start than a victory lap in my athletic journey.

Ive always had hot spots on the pad of my feet just before my arches due to my sweaty feet with the smallest amount of friction. Ive tried every cream, gel and powder available and just about every running sock on the market to minimize friction. I usually have problems going beyond 6 miles due to the burning pain and was fearing whether I could go the distance in my upcoming half marathon. I attended the Chevron Houston Marathon Expo and saw the KT Tape booth where there was a long line of people waiting to be taped by KT personnel. Being the Guinea pig that I am and having tried everything else on the market,I said what the heck and hopped in line too. After describing my issues, she taped each foot with one full strip longways from just under my toes to the back of my heel. She then cut a strip in half and put both short ways across the pad of my foot so that the entire pad was covered by strips. Well, I walked about 500 feet before feeling the tape starting to peel on the ends. Another expo participant shared that the oils and lotions on my feet were the likely cause of the peeling and that alcohol helps. So, I went back to the KT booth and sure enough she sprayed an alcohol solution and applied fresh tape. This time it lasted through the rest of the day and through my half marathon the following day. No pain, no burning, no friction and no peeling of the tape!!! I did another half marathon last Sunday. I wiped my feet with alcohol first and applied the tape exactly as it had been applied by KT....again, worked perfectly!!!! This stuff is amazing. I went on a 2 mile run this morning, applied alcohol first as usual. This time however, I only applied half of a strip across the pad of each foot. Worked like a charm. Gonna try using this same method for longer runs. In short, the tape is very effective even in the moistest areas but the key is to apply alcohol before applying the tape to remove excess oil.

Arrived next day which was awesome! It didn’t stick all that well to me, which is a bummer. I was hoping to get a couple days out of it but it started rolling on my back the day it was placed after activity. I do sweat a lot so that may be part of the problem. It also made my skin super dry and itchy so be wary of that if you have sensitive skin!
