Kinesio Taping - Elastic Therapeutic Athletic Tape Tex Gold FP - Bulk Roll - Blue – 2 in. x 103 ft

Absolutely love this tape! It is perfect for patients who are battling sciatica nerve pain in the legs, patient's who are struggling with a total knee surgery, patient's who have fallen and twisted the ankles or torn ligaments.Why this is so amazing is that it sticks the way patient's need it to stick without it being too strong and it limits movement. You are able to apply topicals on top of the take and the skin absorbs it. Also, you are able to shower with the tape without it rolling back up. My mother uses this and she showers daily and the tape lasts for a full week. Will only buy this tape going forward!

When I first opened the tape I thought I was going to be disappointed. It is a slight bit thinner than the main competition, Rock Tape. After applying it, I was very surprised that it stuck very well, provided support and did not roll back at the edges as I thought it might. I would recommend this tape for those that need to tape alot. Good tape for the price.

Works great on my knee. Hoping to delay any type of procedure.

I like this tape better than other brands. It stays on throughout workouts and water based activities.

It is the best tape in on the market that I have found. The primary use I have for it is helping to manage my wife's lymphedema in her leg. We have tried several different brands of tape, mainly bought from pharmacies, and we finally found this brand online. We had been looking for it because it was the kinesio-tape that our specialist used and recommended. Doing quick mental math this tape in bulk is roughly $0.50/ft, which is cheap for something that we use almost every other day.As for the actual tape, I haven't heard of anything better. The adhesive lasts up to 3-4 days with daily showering; 24-48 hours if left on through a bath. The elasticity of the material does wear out before the adhesive. In our experience the tape loses some of its strength after 24 hours and wears out after 2 days. It works very well in tandem with compression stockings, and unlike the stocking the tape stays on through the night. Although, being only anecdotal evidence, my wife says that for the first time in nearly a decade she can feel her leg cooling down when the tape is applied.

As a personal trainer, if I have a client complaining about pains or sores I recommend them to kinesio tape. I have applied it multiple time and it helps with instant relief. If you need help with how to tape certain areas, google kinesiology tape and the area you feel pain. There should be plenty of youtube videos as well. Hope this helps! Also if you do apply it, dont do it after a workout, make sure if you do at least shower first and be completely dry. If needed taking rubbing alcohol and remove any oils from skin then apply tape.

Both my daughter and myself have used this tape for various injuries. My daughter had a badly sprained ankle and the physical therapist was impressed with how well the Kinesio tape reduced the swelling and the healing time. I have used it for a shoulder problem as well as after surgery on both knees. We do have a book that gives detailed instructions on how and when to tape for various injuries. You don't just slap some tape on and call it good. It has to be cut correctly and applied with the proper amount of tension to work correctly, But when applied correctly it works great.

This tape is a bulk roll, which not only means more tape, but I need to cut the strips to length, which I prefer for my purposes. I suffer from tibialis posterior tendinopathy so I utilize lowdye and inversion check taping daily. Precut KT tape strips I was using previously just were not very good. I climbed Mt. Fuji this past weekend and this tape lasted me the whole climb! Repels most water and dries fast. Sticks better and longer than any other athletic tape I have used without a difficult to remove residue. DEFINITELY will buy again!
