What is it?

 

This pain free technique, which is applicable to everyone, is based on the most natural possible process of healing the body with specific adhesive tapes that provide the best support for muscles and joints. Each client is approached individually and the application technique is adapted to his problem.

 

 

How does it work?

 

Without the use of medications or surgery, it gently enables the natural circulation of blood and lymphatic fluid to purify and cure the inflammation. 

This particular tape assists in the improvement of circulation, the support of muscles, the healing of internal injuries, and the prevention of additional muscular damage while still facilitating motion.

 

What does it target?

 

Adjustable Tape is created to offer support and pain relief for aches associated with muscles, joints, and tendons.

  • Who is a good candidate for it?

    People suffering from many common muscle and joint problems, such as sprains, muscular pain, subluxations, arthritis, and tendonitis, can be prevented or treated with KT Tape. While exercising, KT tape gives support and pain relief.

    Menstrual pain and headaches are also reported to be relieved within 24 hours for many users after applying the kinesiology tape.



  • Can anyone have it?

    This procedure is NOT recommended for people with:

     

    • If you are sensitive to adhesives.

    • If you have open wounds, or infections in the wounded region.

    • Skin diseases.

    • Contagious diseases, including any cold or flu, no matter how mild it may seem.



  • How long does it take KT tape to work?

    The tape can usually stay in place up to 7 days even while showering or exercising. Positive results are reported to be felt within 24 hours for many users of kinesiology tape.

  • Can I shower with my kt tape on?

    You don’t have to be concerned about getting your tape wet. Because kinesiology tape is water-resistant, you may have a bath, get the ice over it (in case of injuries), or even swim while wearing it. 

    You can dry the tape after activities that got it wet by gently wiping it down with a towel or dry it simply using the hairdryer.



  • What to do in case my kt tape starts peeling off?

    In this case just use the scissors to cut the edges that are slightly peeled off, and do not take the whole tape off, because the focal point of the tape is still active.
