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

I have bought a few different brands of kt tape. They all work well but with 1 exception, they should tell you ti buy the adhesion spray promoter or the tape wont stay on even 5 min.

I have tried several brands of kinesiology tape and this brand has always worked best for me. It allows for the perfect amount of tension and it does not peel off. It comes in a great assortment of colors. I have used it on myself and for my daughter who was born with torticolis. After a few months of PT and using KT Tape, her condition was corrected. I trust this brand.

Sure, there are differences in different brands of KT tape, but I think were to the point where the range of differences is shrinking all of the time. For me, I care about the adhesive, the support level, and the price - though not necessarily in that order. Actually, I also care about pre-cut strips... Im not the guy that needs to tape up an entire shoulder, so the pre-cut strips save me a ton of time and hassle. Aside from that, the support level from this KT tape is about the same as the other brands Ive used. As youd expect, you can fine tune the level with the preload tension on the tape when you apply it. The material is breathable, and the adhesive works even when saturated with sweat. I generally dont wear the tape for more than a couple hours, and have noticed that the edges roll up a little in that time. Its not enough to affect the performance of the product, but it might get worse the longer you wear it, so thats something to keep in mind. Id say that the adhesive performance is slightly below average for the KT tape products Ive used. Finally, this product is inexpensive enough that I dont have to worry about the fact that this is basically a maintenance cost associated with my workouts going forward. If you work out within the time envelope that I do, I can recommend this product. However, I dont know how it will perform if you have to wear it for 3+ hours, so YMMV.

Works really well for my knee pain

Used tape for heel spur and it helped for a few weeks until I was able to get a shot. I used two rolls.

I saw a demonstration on YouTube for how to use this product for golfers elbow. I have been sidelined from golf for over a year and have a few years in the tendon so PT has been unsuccessful. I tried these and did well at the range and then played 18 holes successfully. I’m reconsidering having the surgery as I may be able to play with the help of this product. If you have golfers elbow, go onto YouTube and see how it is applied. It is easier if someone can help you but I’ve managed to put it on myself. I believe if I tried this product a year ago I would have been able to play a lot more golf.

I dont know if it is placebo or what, but I dont care because it helps immensely. I went from only being able to do 45 minute run with pain in my hips, back and knees at TWENTY FOUR years old...to being able to do hour and half runs with the tape on my knees (sometimes hip or back) and the aching goes away almost entirely. I compared one time with putting tape on one knee and not the other, there was literally more color in the leg with tape (hence more blood flow) which showed that something was moving in there. Also at the end of the run my left knee without the tape was aching while the right knee, wasnt. At the end of the run, it would feel weird because my body was so used to the pain in those joints, that there was this feeling that it would come back any second. It was analogous to the feeling of having hiccups and you hold your breath for a minute and they dont come back, but that minute of waiting for the next hiccup to come feels like it is going to happen...but then it doesnt. It was like that at first. Anyways, the product is awesome and I am ordering more and recommending more to others. I am trying to become a PA (not PT) and so hearing the science on it makes total sense, knowing what I know about the body. Highly recommend yall! Its also preventative health for your joints by putting less wear and tear on them as well as allowing more blood flow to go into the knee area, this helps with healing. No doubt.

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.

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.

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.
