Great idea - not effective
This product comes off as a great idea and seems as though it could serve a great purpose, but the purpose of taping is to limit certain movements and provide support. The support that joints and injuries may need cannot be supported nearly as well athletic tapes with more stiffness. Not to mention this product is much more costly.
Helps a lot
I like this product because it helps a lot. With my bad ankle it gives it the support it needs so it does not hurt as much while walking. For my shoulder it helps with the pain.
Carpal, it band, tennis elbow, you name it!
This product us a game changer if you have a repetitive use injury and are working to stengthen and get better.
It supports and ASSISTS the muscles so that pain is lessened and movement is aided.
My hubby works in construction and thus tape helps him even when he's suffering a bit of pain from the previous day.
One application can last up to 5 days if you are careful to avoid with lotions and overuse of body wash etc.
Good for Athletes
Great product to have if you play competitive sports or recreational sports! Works really well around the shoulders and definitely has its benefits to feeling better.
It totally helps with my injury!
I have serious Achilles tendon pain. I am currently doing physio. I find that the KT athletic tape helps me with my normal daily activities. It is simple to use and definitely helps with the pain!
For all athletes
I love the way this tape makes me feel. Being an athlete with multiple injuries I cant picture not using this on a single one. Also being a lifeguard this tape is great as it is also waterproof.
Was disappointed
Had seen a lot of reviews on this product and advertising. Was having hip and leg and muscle issues and thought I'd buy the tape to help when doing a workout. Haven't really noticed any improvements with using the tape.
Super effective
Great for sport injuries, great for recovering injuries or surgeries. Comes in a variety of colours. Company backs up their products. Great for day to day use.
I bought this tape because I have seen a lot a good reviews about it but I was very disappointed.
I tried it on my lower back and honestly it was so frustrating, the tape just wouldn't stay on and kept coming off even tho I followed all the instructions. I ended up returning it. It's almost like the glue/ stickiness was all dried up.
I have limited range of motion of my arm, shoulder and back on my right side due to a shoulder injury. I purchased this tape to help support the tendons in my shoulder/back to make running more comfortable for a race I was preparing for. It was a great price, and I love the instructional videos online make it really easy to understand how it works and how to use it. It definitely made a difference in my training because I had less pain. Unfortunately however, due to my limited range of motion in my arm, I was unable to put the KT tape on myself (and often unable to take it off myself either). This was frustrating and extremely inconvenient because It meant I had to rely on someone else and wait on someone else in order to train. For this reason, I see this being more beneficial for someone who doesn't have range of motion issues.
