Frequently Asked Questions
What are the dimensions of this kinesiology tape?
Kinesiology tape is 5cm in width and 5m in length, which gives plenty of material for multiple uses.
What is kinesiology tape?
Kinesiology tape is an elastic therapeutic tape used to support muscles and joints during physical activity. It may help reduce muscle strain, support mobility, and aid recovery from minor injuries like sprains or strains when used as part of a broader care routine.
Can kinesiology tape be used for sports injuries?
Yes, kinesiology tape is commonly used in sports and exercise to support joints and muscles. It can be very helpful when recovering from strains or sprains, especially when used with other supports such as knee or ankle braces.
Does physio tape keep its elasticity over time?
Kinesiology tape is designed to keep its strong elasticity and adhesiveness for several days, often up to 5–7 days, depending on your activity level, skin type, and exposure to moisture. After the tape is removed, if you are still feeling muscle aches, consider a deep heat patch to soothe the sore muscle with heat therapy.
How do I apply kinesiology tape correctly?
Firstly, start off by cleaning and drying the area you want to apply the tape to. After this, cut the required length of kinesio tape needed, and apply with a slight stretch to the area in need of support.
Can kinesiology tape withstand moisture and sweat?
Yes, the kinesiology tape is highly water resistant, which makes it more than suitable for intense activities.
How long can kinesiology tape be worn?
Kinesiology tape can typically be worn for 3 to 7 days. If any irritation occurs while wearing or the tape begins to peel, it should be removed and replaced.
What colours of physiotherapy tape are available?
This physio tape is available in a few colours, including blue, pink, black and beige, which allows customisation to personal preference or even for team uniforms.
