PRO

A good friend of mine, who’s also a chiropractor, put this on my aching shoulder. I had been eyeing it on Amazon for quite a while, and after trying it, I was impressed. I don’t know exactly how it works—or whether it’s psychosomatic or the real deal—but honestly, I don’t really care because it helps. I’ve used it on my shoulders and my knees, and it provides noticeable relief wherever I apply it. It’s not completely waterproof. It tends to peel up a little after a shower, but I just make a couple of small snips, press it back down, and it’s good to go. Overall, I’m very happy with it and would definitely recommend giving it a try.

I am so very impressed by this tape. I started with original cotton KT tapes when I was diagnosed with ab + rib + hip/thigh (illiotibial band) muscle injuries from vigrous workout and told to wear kinesio tapes for 4 weeks. They did not limit range of motion at all but instead prevented excess motions or overstreaching of muscles so that I could safely work out. By the time the initial 4 week regimen was up, I had already tried 2 other KT tapes (for sensitive skin, and PRO) and liked KT PRO tapes so much that I decided to continue using them in my marathon training. I have been using them for shoulder, rib, ab, hip, hamstring, side of leg (peroneus longus), ankle, and foot, sometimes all at the same time. I just ran a marathon race with 13 KT RPO tapes on me, and they stayed on till the finish line. After the race I lost my toenails which altered my gait and caused severe ankle pain. Ibuprofen didn't help with pain while walking, so I put the tapes around the ankle* and the pain was reduced significantly. I will be using KT PTO tapes in my training for probaly next couple of months until everything heals so that I don't have to completely stop training. The tapes are supporsed to be applied on the clean skin AT LEAST 1 HOUR BEFORE activity, and if you follow that instruction, they remain in place no matter how long, vigrous, and sweaty the activity is. If you cut them in half to make a Y shape tape for your shoulder or hamstring, make sure you keep at least an inch for the anchor to stay put. I don't leave them on after shower, even though they are supposed to last for a few days. I just wear them on the day of training or from the night before and take them off after activity. I am allergic to adhesive, so wearing them for too long gives me rash. But I'd rather be itchy than in pain.

It seemed to help with my husbands neck soreness! No irritation, no odor, it stuck to his skin pretty good for a couple of days.

These in particular don’t seem to stick well. Not sure if it was the batch I got, but they were basically not worth it in that way. Good enough, though.

OK, I am going to preface this first by saying that you probably should not run on serious injuries and always listen to your body, be conservative. With that said I did train and run a marathon with a bit of shin splints (still being conservative for my experience in running). I used the KT tape on my shins and it relieved the pain! you also should look up YouTube videos how to properly apply the tape, and once you do, this stuff is incredible and I do believe actually works. Essentially it is lifting the skin barrier to allow more blood flow to the site. I don’t think it lasts the 3 to 5 days that it says, especially if you are being active, taking showers or it is rubbing against socks or something like that. I changed the tape probably every other day, which I am fine with given how well it works. It’s not going to heal your injuries, but I do believe it makes it manageable! I am a KT tape user for life!

This was great! It was delivered overnight and helped my son after he rolled his ankle right before tryouts.

Great tape. Good adhesive.

Works great, stays in place

Last for 4-5 days, give bit support

La facilità di applicazione

fácil aplicación y buena durabilidad

This tape is brilliant! I had previously bought tape from a leading chemist, at the same sort of price (they've reduced it recently!), and it was much flimsier and nowhere near as sticky as KT PRO Tape. Having had major knee problems most of my adult life, it's brilliant to find something that supports my knees, and can help my quads take the strain, as I still play 5-a-side. As well as the support, its adherence to the skin is impressive. You can shower and it will remain stuck (I think following the instructions about rubbing the tape when first putting it on seems important in this respect). I haven't tried keeping the tape on for much more than 1 and a half days, but I can imagine that it would last the 3/4 days people claim. I'm totally sold on this tape, and would highly recommend it.
