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

The tape definitely helped with the pain of my carpal tunnel but caused blisters and rashes all over my wrist.

My daughter had the unfortunate luck of dislocating her patella AND tearing her MCL (medial collateral ligament) in a varsity soccer game last year. Her orthopedist, as well as her physical therapist, have been using 1/4 kino tape on her knee for months. Its tiny little pin-stripe looking tape. Well, Ive never once caught on on how to apply that tiny, narrow, skinny little tape. So, due to my failure to figure it out, shes been forced to wear a cumbersome, sweaty, uncomfortable knee brace thus far this soccer season. Then, I saw an online video for KT Tape. I saw the whole knee application and figured Why not? The most Id be out was around $12 on a package of Kino tape that may or may not work/be a disaster. I picked a color that matched her schools colors, as those were their rules for allowing kino tape. It came a few days after ordering. The precut strips come in a neat little easy to seperate roll. They also come with a little booklet with basic instructions, but I am not skilled with the KT tape, so we watched YouTube videos on full knee application. Well, today was the day of truth. We applied the full knee application, rubbed vigorously, and off she went. Two hours, a bunch of mud, and some slide tackles later, I have a review. It works. It was extremely easy to apply in the correct way. Just three strips and we were off. She said her knee felt stabilized all game. Our only complaint would be that it was starting to roll a bit on the ends, but we think that is due to the amount of slide tackles she both dealt and received. She said that peeling it off for a shower was like ripping off a wax strip, so I assume it wouldnt come off in ordianary applications. It didnt rub under her shorts, nor under her socks. So, Id defnitely rate this one a 4 out of 5. Mostly because I wish the fabric had some sort of way to indicate how far a strech was. Guessing is ok, but for someone like me who has no idea what they are doing, shapes on the adhesive might help us to realize when weve acheived 80%, 50%, etc stretch. We will defintely be buying more, as she absoultely loves the idea of not having to wear a full knee brace now.

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

Does not stay on skin due to lack of adhesion

I shouldve bought this sooner! Purchase this when I was 30 weeks pregnant. Never thought it would elevate back and belly pain like it did. Glad I went this route and not the belly band.

Good kt tape. But what they dont tell you is to buy the adhesive promoter spray or this and any kt tape wont stay on any longer than 5 minutes tops.

My daughter plays competitive sports and had a recent surgery . After her return to the game she loves I was anxious but one of her teammates shared this tape at a 2 day Vball tournament and it helps support. I quickly got on Amazon n ordered several! Must have !!

I twisted my knee, already with arthritis, and was screaming in pain after the twist for 3 days. Upon watching football last Sunday I saw a player get his shoulder injured and we thought he was OUT. A play or two later he comes out... makes some great runs, makes a key block and scores the game winning touchdown! They had put KT tape on his shoulder. So happens I already HAD some. Cant even remember why I bought it. Put 3 strips on my knee and INSTANTLY... yes instantly it started feeling better, then after still taking it easy for couple hours and icing it couple of times I could walk rather well. Still felt it a little but in no way hindered me with the awful pain. Still using it, showering with it and all, and getter better every day. LOVE THIS PRODUCT.

I use this for plantar fasciitis and I noticed that it’s really helpful on days that I’m on my feet or doing a lot of walking. Definitely reduces the heel pain and it makes me able to stay on my feet a lot longer than usual. I don’t even notice that they’re on my feet when I wear them.

Like magic, my miserable pain relief is reduced significantly. The tape provides comforting support. I have tried ointments, braces, pillows, and even other tapes, but this brand works miracles. The other brand left adhesive residue. This one doesn’t and it stays on longer. Are must be clean with no lotion or oils. Use alcohol and allow to dry. Try to get help applying. I apply my own but it would be even better if I had help. I even use it for immediate lower back pain relief. I have 3 bulging disks and arthritis there. I don’t have to take pain medication anymore. I swear by this product!!!
