I have use other tapes and they are not as flexible as kinesiology and it is so comfortable.
Rebecca M.
This tape works way better than KT. I had bought the sleeve for planters fasciitis and figured the tape would be good too. It doesnt leave residue and stays stuck to my foot way longer than other tapes
Diane S.
This tape is unbelievable. It really works. I am so thankful my friend recommended it to me. Try it, you wont’t be disappointed.
Debbie D.
Bought previously and will again. Great tape at a great price and the company seem lovely, a personalised service, a rarity in this day and age. Also, unlike most, they give instruction on how to use the tape, handy for the layperson :)

The tape has worked well so far with the times we have used it. It has good staying power under varsity athletic games.
James G.
Ecellent had no reaction to tape like with otherrs
James G.
EXCELLENT did not itch it is the only tape that is hypoallergenic tha I can use will be ordering MORE
Clare K.
I love it I ended up having to have surgery on my knee but I know as I continue to recover the tape will provide the support I need while the knee gets stronger.
David N.
seems to work as well as more expensive brands
Joan W.
I have replaced the Keniso-Tex tape I used to use with the Physix tape because the tape I used to use became to thin to work well. LOVE the Physix Kinesiology Tape.
Silene W.
My massage therapist applied the tape to my arm a week ago and it is just now starting to come off. Holds up really well.
Carlos
They go perfect and stick very well, I recommend passing a blade by the area where you want to stick the ribbons because if not remove it a little and also reduce the durability because having hair does not hold as well as there is.
Mireia
Highly Recommended, Product arrived promptly and works really well. It also contains some instructions where you can see how to download the pdf of instructions for use. It works perfect and also in reasonable price!
Rosita P.
Package arrived in the specified time. Well packaged.
There is a choice - unfortunately - the color of the tape: to me it came a beautiful beige.
high quality tape. Inside the box there are signs to be able to download a manual that teaches how to put the tape kinesiology. The book is very easy to understand.
Salvatore G.
My judgment has an added value as a practice as a physiotherapist and then enabled the use of Kinesio Taping. The product I received yesterday and I immediately set to work with my patients. The canvas is the right resistance and adhesive power I seem to excellent stability. i never got complaints from any of my patients
Bagaìieta
I was pleasantly pleased with this tape for kinesiology, I bought this tape for therapeutic reasons, I also like the color so much, I think it's the new way of the future. It is not a cure but it really helps. I will definitely buy it in the future as well.
Dave
In the package that I received I found both the ribbon roll.
The quality looks good, like other tapes and seems durable.
I had no problem in the application.
Cute product color!
I am quite satisfied with my purchase, probably I will try similar models in different colors from the same vendor.
Recensore
I received the package in a well timely manner and it the package i found the black tape and the guide for applying it.
The tape is really of a good quality.
After several tests I found that really is waterproof and durable.
I applied on my husband's back because he had pain in his muscles, After applying the tape it withstood a week without problems.
Rick W.
The product is of excellent quality, is without problems and is waterproof. The adhesive does not produce irritation, resists water and when removing does not produce skin trauma. The added benefit is that you will get free ebooks which will guide you through each step.
Max M.
Excellent tape for sealing and water resistant. i received the book ... free.
I am a physiotherapist and I wanted to compare the various products that are on the market and i must say this is one of the best product in a very good price. Extremely Useful
Andreas R.
I've got these tapes very often from my doctor's arm or leg or knee pain and it has always helped quite well.
Now I can try to solve the problems by myself once a pain makes it necessary. The roll with the tape is about 5 meters long and is of best quality and on the homepage you can download the book offered in the sale as a download. I only use the tape when my doctor says it's ok.
Miranda B.
Fabulous next day service easy to use tape I'm new to it so will take time for me to perfect the art but so far I've had no problems, very easy to apply and sticks incredibly well. Works far better on my knee that has osteoarthritis, than the bulky hot support I was using. plus nobody has to see I'm using it as hides under my clothes. very happy with the service I've already ordered some for my sisters thumb. THANKYOU
Lesley F.
Used this tape due to a pulled muscle in my shoulder.... Loads of tape on the roll..... Perfect support really sticks well and stays on for about a week....No unsticking after showering... I recommend patting the taped area dry rather than a vigorous rub...Easy to follow instructions....For applicstion to my shoulder I needed someone else to apply it....And remember to round off the edges of the tape as this helps keep it stuck for a lot longer...I highly recommend the use of this
Monica
I had a running injury and my physio suggested getting some tape for it. I bought this one due to good reviews and I wasn't disappointed. I ordered the yellow and taped my ankle which stayed on for a good 5 days after daily showers and two swims so could not be happier. I repeated the same a couple of times and i'm now injury free and back to running again highly recommended.
Evelyn
The tape arrived very promptly and I downloaded the free ebook. This was quite helpful although it did not cover the pain from achilles tendonitis which is what caused me to buy the product. It is very competitively priced and does not roll away from the skin when rubbed by clothing or bedding, unlike other tape that I've tried. (I still wear a sock at night just in case though!) The supplier emailed me yo make sure that I was satisfied - excellent customer care. I wholeheartedly recommend both the supplier, Physix Gear Sport, and the product.
Glen B.
I've recently been getting some soreness in my knee when I'm playing sport, the tape has helped relieve a bit of pressure in my knee which his the desired effect I was after. The adhesive is good and lasts a good few days although after a high intensity game I felt like I needed a new strap just because of sweating.
All in all a great product, and better customer service.
Louis999
I've purchased Kinesiology tape quite a few times. You can get some that is of poor quality BUT this one is excellent and I'll certainly be buying again.
The bonus was that it came faster than expected too.
Shajpaj
I've tried a few kinesiology tape brands since discovering them, and this one is one of the best I've come across.
The two most important factors to consider before purchasing are:
1- the quality of the adhesive (so the tape doesn't come off)
2- How elastic the tape is (this is important in helping support whatever joint you apply it to)
Most tapes I've tried have had pretty good adhesives, but Physix Gear's also has very good elasticity, meaning that it provides better support.
Sharon S.
Excellent product and after care service. The tape has been absolutely brilliant in supporting my other half's knee when he plays tennis. He's played two games of doubles over the course of 4 days which both lasted 2 hours and the tape has survived daily showers and both games! I was unable to access the e-book but after a quick mail, I was provided very quickly with the link to enable me to download a guide to using the tape. The instructions are clear and the tape is easy to apply and remove. Adam quickly followed up by e-mail, making sure that everything was ok. I will definitely buy more tape when we've used the double pack up but it may be a while as it is such a good product at an excellent price. Finally, it arrived very quickly too. We've already recommended this tape to others who I'm sure will reap the benefits of it.
Sally L.
Initially skeptical about the effectiveness of kinesiology tape, I am now a believer! Suffering from stretched ligaments and arthritis is my foot, my Physical Therapist incorporated wrapping my foot and ankle as part of the treatment plan. The tape has greatly reduced swelling, increased blood flow and added minor support (can wear a shoe). Physic Gear Kinesiology is the specific brand my Orthopedist and PT recommended I purchase for at home usage. I've also used the tape for a joint injury on my thumb. When applied correctly, the tape stays in place for multiple days even with daily showers and work outs. The tape guide book is very descriptive, explains not only "how" but "why" and has excellent photos.
Brandy M.
I was skeptic about tape really being able to help but I am now a believer. A knee problem (meniscus) that can only be fixed by surgery has made running and everyday a little painful. I've tried different braces and most help a little but nothing great. Then I tried Kinesiology tape and will only use that. It takes a few times watching youtube and applying to get it right. Also the tape is supposed to stay on for several days so it is painful to rip off, especially if you don't shave the area - which I don't. I've also used it on my hamstring and neck/shoulder with good results (you need someone else to apply it in most areas). I've tried other brands of tape and found that they all have similar results but Physix gear tape stays on longer. I also didn't use the guide but there are many youtube videos that are helpful.
Sussnowflake
Love this product. I have wore a brace on my knee for 4 years and still had swelling. I bought the tape, watched the video and applied the tape I have not wore my knee brace since. I had the first set of tapes on for 5 days, even showered with it on. I have taped my knee again and still have not worn my knee brace. It has been 7 days since I wore my brace. The swelling is even gone. Which I am not sure why that is, but it works I am not going to question it. This product works great. I have recommended this product to two other people that have bought it with the same results. Was shipped when promised.
Dee
I am very pleased with the tape and have found it to be extremely helpful with my shoulder and knee problems. Your tape has allowed me to carry on swimming whilst wearing it without any signs of it coming off in the water. I would highly recommended your tape to anyone needing extra support for dodgy joints. Many thanks for providing me with such an excellent product. Its good to know I can obtain a good quality tape at a very reasonable price.
Kate
I have been suffering with soft tissue problem on my knee which the KT tape has helped enormously. My husband also suffers with Plantar facitis which the KT tape has also helped, we would highly recommend this product.
Bex H.
I normally use KT tape but have found this is so much better!! It's way cheaper for one and lasts longer! With KT tape it would only last a Few days before it started to peel and get loose but I've had this tape on for a week now and it's still as strong and sturdy as the day I put it on!! I exercise twice a day Monday - Friday (teaching classes at the gym) and have had a bad knee for years (medial meniscus injury) so having tape that lasts and does break the bank is vital! I would highly recommend this :)
Damion
I feel like a new man, I suffered for a number of years with lower back pain, had all the expensive physio and tried all the external rub on gels, and obviously ingesting tablets upon tablets, I stumbled across this tape and I will never look back, I now sleep through the night again and work is much easier, obviously I was skeptical at first, but its worked for me.
Billy D.
Fabulous product and works wonders my foot is really benefitting from the tape. After seeing my Physio he has commented on the difference and I will continue to use the tape while my foot improves. This is a staple now in my house after a shower to tape my foot and then it is supported all day. Would truly recommend it so you can get results fast as I have and I am amazed how much its working.
Ashley G.
Great product, turned up in really good time and exactly as expected. Cheaper than some on the market but not let down in quality in anyway. Has really helped with pregnancy back and knee pains. I'm sure it'll definitely help beyond as well. Very helpful customer service with additional aid emails and prompts on how to use successfully.
Josepheen R.
a coworker suggested kinesiotape.
My two-pack of tape arrived three days ago, and my life has turned around.
Following a video on YouTube, I applied four strips of tape, total of 30", and immediately felt relief. Its a great product. Definitely worth trying!!! and it sticks way longer and removed easily when required.
Kathrine S.
The kinesiotape guides my knee cap to track in place despite the swelling and distortion from the fracture and surgery. This makes extending my leg more comfortable and removes the primary source of renewed edema. The compression also reduces swelling.
Unlike braces, the fit is custom and precise for me. It is comfortable, and even comforting. And unlike all those devices, the tape does not slide out of of place, putting pressure over my tender incision. Plus, it is not too tight when I sit with my legs flexed. Lovely Product
Grace
The tape is slim enough to fit under my clothes -- even nylons -- so I no longer have to where bulky pants and long skirts to cover things. And the bright color is fun -- byebye to Goth black every day.
While my first attempt at placement was great, curiousity (perfectionism) led me to experiment with some improvements, so I can also tell you that removing strips, is also painless if you stretch the tape while peeling it (kind of like "3M Command Strips.")
Amanda P.
I could not be happier with this product. It decreased the impact of my injury, in a matter of moments, and accelerated my healing in a matter of days.
I am so thrilled, and as a physician assistant myself, I am wondering why I never knew about kinesiology tape before.
This is the closest thing to a miracle I could expect
Rin L.
Once the tape arrived, I took what YouTube advice I had and taped both legs for shin splints for the outer portion on the shins. I had recently aggravated both legs but need to keep up training for the upcoming 10K. I wore the tape for two days without training so that I could give some support to the muscles while they rested. NO PAIN on the 4 day morning and it was like a miracle.I consider this a personal victory and attributed to the Physix Gear Sport tape. I have no doubt that both legs would have flaired up again without it.
Jakub O.
I am totally satisfied with the performance of the tape, especially given my minimal knowledge of how to effectively tape. YouTube and ebook make this tape guarantees my job completion possible daily. As I have to stand long hours and I have a constant pain in Calfs but with this I can say boy Calf pain won't have a chance. It also sticks around for like 5 days with daily showers and even can sustain a swim.
Sally A.
The tape was worn for three days and I showered with it. It adhered and performed flawlessly. I didn't had any reaction even when removing the tape. The price is great with free ebook. Totally acceptable, in my book. I'll just apply it for use and remove it afterward. Easy peesy. I'm so happy to have bought this tape
Thedore W.
I put it on my knee for support following a shower. It has stayed on now for three days, two 5K runs (I wash the tape in the shower) and it still stays on. Moreover utilizing the tape method described in the guide, 90% of my post run knee pain was gone. Leaving it on however has eliminated the rest of my knee pain, allowing my knee to heal it seems. As a result of not having the pain I worked three time faster as I can move freely enough. I'm a believer now.
Zuniga C.
I tried a brace and meds for my knee problems but nothing helped. So I decided to give Kinesiology tape a try. Today I ran a 5K and the tape really helped. My knee didnt hurt during the run and when I removed it I was surprised my knee still didnt hurt. Im grateful to have found a product that will help me fulfill my running dreams.
Mickey W.
I first heard about kinesilogy taping some years ago but never gave it much thought. I filed it away under "vodoo treatments". Some months ago I had a personal injury that was not getting better so I tried kinesilogy taping and it really made a difference. Since then I've tried a number of different tapes and really didn't feel like there was much difference between the brands. Physix Gear tape seems to be a bit better than the others, it sticks longer, comes off easily and don't leave marks. I am glad that I found it!!
Alex
Came as expected. Super easy to use, it even has grid lines behind the tape (where you peel off) so you can measure. I injured my meniscus years ago so I have to wear a knee sleeve or brace when I play sports so I don't hyperextend or pop my knee. Surprisingly the tape holds my knee pretty well, even to the point where I don't really wear my knee sleeve as much. Sometimes I wear the sleeve over the tape (just for extra measure), but the tape does the job. Definitely going to buy it again. Thanks
K S.
I am so happy that we found this product! I have 3 success stories: 1) My husband had been suffering from a strained shoulder for about 6 months. We just couldn't get it to heal even with massage. Applied the shoulder taping, the next day he was 50% better, by the 3rd day he said he felt like a million bucks! Had more energy and increased vitality! Ended up taping the other shoulder as he was doing so much more. Tapes came off on the 4th day and he has been doing well. It's been a week now, he has some aching and I need to re-apply it, but he does not have the pain he had before!
Martha S.
I bought this tapes a few weeks ago and fell in love with it, I also suggested this to a friend of mine who had a knee injury where her Patella (kneecap) would slide over when she applied the clutch in her car. She would have to hold her kneecap every time she had to push in the clutch. I cut the tape for her and she applied it. It held! She applied the 2nd time for a few days and then took it off. Her kneecap no longer slips when she applies the clutch in her car! She is a new customer of Physix Gear now ;-)!
Jake S.
I had knee pain due to lot of sitting on the floor due to work and one of my friend recomended this to me and I have been using it since. My sister has had two meniscus tear surgeries on one knee. It's really been causing her a lot of pain making it difficult to walk. I taped her knee and the next day she said it had not been bothering her! How grateful I am for this wonderful tape! It really lasts about 3-4 days. She says that she will soon going to buy this. It really helped her.
Roberta J.
I am using this tape for three weeks due to my knee issue and it stayed on me for like 5 days on average with daily showers and swim but I found with my husband he takes really hot showers which makes the ends roll up. So for him, we are going to just remove it after 2 days then, give it a few days before we reapply. Thank you Physix Gear Sport for a great product and all the extra goodies you share. I am reordering today!
Marion
I'd been taping my foot with KT tape for a couple weeks when I found this brand. It was cheaper and came in a continuous roll so I thought I'd give it a try.
The results are way better as it sticks longer the adhesive used is of real quality and it really sucks the pain right out. It never leaves a stinky mark when we take it off and never cause a painful reaction
Rocky
The Tape arrived very promptly and I found this tape is way better and cheaper than other brands and also it works more than some very well known brands. I usually just end up cutting my Physix Gear Sport strips to the same size as my KT precut strips but like the option to be able to cut different sizes if needed. This comes in most handy for me when I want to cut an anchoring strip to prevent my ends from rolling or sometimes if I want to wrap my Achilles' tendon as well. It's easiest for me if I just cut a few strips to have handy when traveling and then don't have to worry about bringing scissors, too. I always round my corners off with my scissors to help prevent lifting. It works for me, but I don't know if it makes a huge difference since I haven't tried otherwise, I'm just following ebook tip. I found this to be a great product in very reasonable price
Arain M.
I have multiple pains for which I am using K Tapes for last 2 years so I am no stranger to K tapes. However with each brand I have to be careful on where my anchoring ends start and stop so I'm adhering directly to skin, rather than laying tape over tape. It doesn't like to stick to itself nearly as much as skin. Careful application is a must, and make sure your skin is clean and dry! I wear this through multiple showers and when it's time to remove it (do this carefully) I've never had issues with it damaging or tearing layers off my skin. By far I can say that this tape is one of the best option I ever had my hands laid on. Great work. Thanks
Rico A.
a friend of mine recommended this kinesiology tape and let me use some of his to support my knee. I experience knee pain frequently after long runs and have had a difficult time finding something to prevent it. After running the half marathon while using this tape, I can say that it comes closer to preventing the pain than the various compression sleeves I have used so far. The tape comes with links to e-books with directions on how to apply for certain types of pain.
Elliot
I ordered this tape for my knee support and it felt great once it arrived with the online guide and also the seller was very concerned about our satisfaction so I took them up on it. I think I just need to press the edges a bit more snug, it stopped pealing and will now stick for days. Plus it is available in great number of colors so I wear the socks of same color and Once applied, I don't even notice it there.
Maddy
As far as its efficacy, I really have no other product to compare it to. I have had bursitis hip pain for over a year. Weight exercises, ice, and resting or decreasing my running mileage only somewhat helped (all things suggested by my doctor). I was desperate because not running was really not an option for me. I was really skeptical of this this tape but thought id give it a shot, with nothing to lose. Since I've been using the tape the pain has disappeared completely even as I increase my weekly mileage. Its only been 3 weeks so I'm hoping it lasts. I remain pain free now so I'd consider this a miracle cure, I didn't think anything would help.
Yoker
My first application (to my knee) lasted 5 days and multiple showers before I removed it myself!! (I do use tincture of benzoin as a skin cleanser/barrier before application). I like the roll so that you can customize the length without so much waste (like with the KT precuts). Good stretch and support. I could not, however, really get the download of the ebook to work -- but the seller was very keen for our satisfaction and instantly helped me out with the ebook. Great Value!
Simon R.
Received the product as advertised and in a timely manner. My husband helped apply the product on both of my arms (tennis elbow). They were easy to cut and easy to apply. It lasted about 5 days on me (4showers). Would probably have lasted 6, if the edges curling up didn't bother me so much. Overall, I would say the product is a great alternative compared to the other expensive KT tapes. It did what it was supposed to do
Don A.
Both my wife and I tried it on right away after getting it. She for her plantar fasciitis and I for my calf pain. She immediately felt relief after the application. I play a lot of tennis, and had torn calf muscle last year, and since then the area doesn't feel right, and recently had major cramp during a tournament. After I applied the tape, I felt instant relief. I tried to play a session of competitive tennis with the tape on, and it provided the support I needed and I did not feel the pain. This is a great product and the eBook illustrates and explains very well on the science behind it and how to apply. I'm going to order more products from this great company,
Kris L.
Really Like this Tape. has a great stretch and stays on. Have had it on for 3 days and have showered and done 2 sweaty 5 mile runs. The price is much better than slot of the other tapes with the same r even better results! I will be purchasing again soon! So glad I found this brand
Carl H.
This tape is a great buy, Used this tape to mitigate patellar tracking issues that have developed during hiking, lifting, and running. The tape stayed in place for 2-4 days and provided great support. Only needed one horizontal anchor strip on each knee, but other configurations with additional strips work well to provide additional benefits. have also used for Hip flexor and calf issues.
Shane A.
The Kinesiology tape adheres well. I have high arches and Planter Fasciitis. This has caused me to tear the ligament on the bottom of my feet. I had surgery on right foot and waiting for it to heal completely before doing the same on the left. This tape stops me from damaging my left foot anymore and is helping the right foot heal. It is easy to work with and really does stabilize the area's that are painful. You literally forget that it is there. Physix K-Tape rocks
Emma C.
I was especially impressed given this brand is fairly inexpensive. I've tried several brands of kinesiology type over the last few years. The material of the Physix Gear tape feels softer and more tightly woven than any other I've tried. Just as importantly, this tape really sticks, even during 60-75 minutes of hot, dripping sweat, yoga sessions. It lasted a full 5 days on my forearm. Ebook was very helpful
Ron J.
My foot was in a lot of pain if I walked normal so I was walking on the side of my foot for a few days. When I put the tape on the ball of my foot, I could again walk normal and did not feel the throbbing pain on the ball of my foot when I walked with the tape on. It stayed in place and is easy to come off when you want it to. It did not even peel my skin off of the blister when I took it off. This is a great product!
Kristie A.
I have had 3 knee surgeries in the last 2 years and these tape products have been part of my recovery regiment. I cant list the different brands i have tried, bought and used over the years but I will say that this is by far the best I have I used. It got delivered right in time, material is great and it sticks longer than the known brands. Great product in a cheap price.
Tom H.
Tried many different brands of PT tape. Most would last for at least a run but nothing stayed on in a wet run or in the pool. After a few laps it would come off. Picked this up because it was the cheapest. Also used Tuff adhesive. This tape stayed on through a few days of training which included: 60miles of bike riding, 2-1 hour runs, 2-1 hour swims and 2-30min sauna sessions. One key is to round the corners when cutting it otherwise the edges lift. Initially I didn't like that I had to cut the tape as the leading brand comes precut. I found that I waste a lot less tape and I actually prefer it. Good stuff. Worth switching brands.
Robert S.
I've gone on and off with my use of kinesiology tape, and have found Physix to be just as good if not better than the others. Where do they come in better? Price.
3-5 dollars is better than decent savings when the tape has worked identically well as other brands.
The tape stays on!! Stays in place until I take it off in the shower which sometimes means I wear it for 1 evening weight session then sleep. Then wake up and train Jui Jitsu.
It's a good product, good price,
Miranda W.
I have terrible knees, and have used kinesiology tape for years, and it was always a hassle. Recently I tried the Physix Gear tape and it's nothing short of a miracle. It sticks perfectly, stretches like a dream, doesn't roll off, is easy to use, and comes with a book of excellent directions for pretty much every body part. Once I figured out how great it is I immediately ordered a second roll
Ron P.
I was introduced to kinesiology tape by a chiropractor for shin splints that have plagued me for a while. It became bothersome even when I took a break from running for a couple months flaring up during walking and especially after doing the elliptical. The tape made shin splints disappear and now I no longer need the pricy physical therapy or chiropractor visits. This tape stays on for a whole week for me without having to change it.
John C.
I used this tape only a few times and need to work with it more. It hs a nice soft texture to the fabric. i thoug it would not be veru suportive nd was surprise that it had a good medium support to it.Very soft comfortable feel while wearing it . Not as much lift as some of the other tapes but more comfortable to wear. It was easy to reposition tape without compromising the adhesive. Stayed on for 3 days on foot and ankle. Was able to trim area tht peeled for longer wear. Would purchase again.
Marlene
I use it to tape my knee after a recent meniscus injury. I feel supported by the tape and overall safer. It takes a bit of the pressure of the injured meniscus, so I have a greater range of motion with the tape than without. It easily stayed for 5 days and doesn't leave any bristal when you take it off. I was extremely cautious about ordering this tape but now I fell that I am lucky to have it because I cannot imagine my life with out it.
Lesley F.

Waxley H.
The adhesive did not cause any allergic reaction on my skin. Having very fine hairs on my arms, I expected the tape to "hurt" a little. I would say the pain I experienced from pulling the tape was because of the fine hairs on my arms, rather than from my skin being pulled. In fact,The tape stayed as new even after 4 days applied, the tape probably would have lasted another day, maybe two, on my arm, because I needed to use some force to remove it. It did not leave a "swirly marks" like some people have mentioned and posted photos of.
Overall, a great experience with the product. I would recommend it and planning to buy some more as the price is great.
Darriel H.
I have chronic neck and shoulder problems because of injuries sustained years ago and have a lot of discomfort in those areas when I'm working out. Recently I started seeing a clinical massage therapist who told me I should try kinesiology tape before going to the gym. After researching the tape and reading other reviews, I decided to try it. I applied the tape by myself yesterday afternoon with no problem, it stayed completely in place all night, and worked like a champ at the gym. I was able to use the treadmill today at a fairly high rate of speed (3.8) and incline (10) and my shoulder and neck did not bother me at all during the time I was on it. I'm looking forward to going faster and at a higher incline my next trip to the gym. I highly recommend this product

bought the tape bc I recently suffered a sprained ankle and the PT I saw suggested K-tape for support instead of a brace. He taped me up (with a competitors brand) and I was on my way. I found his tape to be helpful and started my search for some...which obviously led me to this product. Which I recently tried after the other tape wore off. This product is grades above the brand my PT used. Not only did I find it more supportive, but it held up longer and wasn't nearly as much of a pain in the #### to remove. The other tape left sticky residue that took harsh scrubbing to get off....painful scrubbing on a sprained joint isn't pleasurable. Your tape came right off, with little residue...the bit that was left was easily removed with a bit of baby oil.
I will definitely be using it again and recommending it to my friends!!

Used this tape to mitigate patellar tracking issues that have developed during hiking, lifting, and running. The tape stayed in place for 2-4 days and provided great support. Only needed one horizontal anchor strip on each knee, but other configurations with additional strips work well to provide additional benefits. have also used for Hip flexor and calf issues.
Great Product! Thanks Guys.

Ordered this tape as I know I needed to tape my foot cause I am doing long hours work just by standing but I needed some think Less EXPENSIVE, I found this and it felt great once I used it. Definitely recommend to any and every one who needs KT tapes.
Keys to success are proper site prep and application. Cleaning the application site is critical as is ensuring the anchor points have zero stretch. Skipping these steps will reduce adhesiveness and/or cause the tape to peel at inopportune times.

Purchased 2-roll of black pack, and it was less expensive than other brands. Color is ideal and blends well with most fair/medium skin tones. Strips are not precut, which is actually positive since strip size can be adjusted to individual physiques. Doesn't curl even after 4 days with regular shower and swim. EBOOK is of great help

A week ago I didn't know what KT was but my MCL pain wasn't getting better. So I searched the net and found out about Kinesiology Tape and
of course Amazon is my favorite place to shop and found your product there. I was hesitant to try this tape because it sounded too simple to
cure a tough problem like a stretched or torn MCL. But I thought I would take a chance and ordered it and it has alleviated my pain immensely if
it is placed correctly around the ligament. I'm so grateful for your fine product and I believe you have a new lifelong purchaser.

A knee problem (meniscus) that can only be fixed by surgery has made running and everyday a little painful. I've tried different braces and most help a little but nothing great. Then I tried Kinesiology tape and will only use that. It takes a few times watching youtube and applying to get it right. Also the tape is supposed to stay on for several days so it is painful to rip off, especially if you don't shave the area - which I don't. I've also used it on my hamstring and neck/shoulder with good results

This a great buy! The Kinesiology tape adheres well. I have high arches and Planter Fasciitis. This has caused me to tear the ligament on the bottom of my feet. I had surgery on right foot and waiting for it to heal completely before doing the same on the left. This tape stops me from damaging my left foot anymore and is helping the right foot heal. It is easy to work with and really does stabilize the area's that are painful. You literally forget that it is there

I am Suffering from Plantar fascitis,And unlike open toe socks for Planter Fasciitis it does not cut off circulation or feel uncomfortable around the toe area. I recommend that you either have a professional show you how to properly apply tape or read the free ebook on taping that comes with this. How much you do or don't stretch the tape is what makes it work so well. The fact that is a solid roll allows you to use what you need with very little waste. Definitely would purchase again. I am glad I found this tape, though I have tried several some more expensive some cheaper I am amazed at how it allows me to be on my feet with Minimal pain.

Great tape. I was especially impressed given this brand is fairly inexpensive. I've tried several brands of kinesiology type over the last few years. The material of the Physix Gear tape feels softer and more tightly woven than any other I've tried. Just as importantly, this tape really sticks, even during 60-75 minutes of hot, dripping sweat, yoga sessions. It lasted a full 5 days on my forearm. The upper and lower edges did gradually loosen and need to be trimmed off. But the main portion was still sticking hard when I finally removed it. Almost too well really, had to pull pretty hard to remove it even when soaking wet in the shower. Very pleased. Didn't cause me an allergic reaction.

I've only used the tape twice now and am in no way an athlete with experience using athletic tape. I bought the tape due getting blisters on the ball of my foot when I walked on the treadmill for long periods of time. I Googled what I could do to help with it and athletic tape was a solution that was noted. My foot was in a lot of pain if I walked normal so I was walking on the side of my foot for a few days. When I put the tape on the ball of my foot, I could again walk normal and did not feel the throbbing pain on the ball of my foot when I walked with the tape on. It stayed in place and is easy to come off when you want it to. It did not even peel my skin off of the blister when I took it off. This is a great product!

This kines tape is amazing for back pain, lower abdominal pain, and round ligament pain due to pregnancy. This tape is not just for athletes! I will be purchasing many more rolls of this tape for myself and other fellow mommies to be. Perfect gift! delivery was very quick and the tape great quality! There is no discomfort of tape pulling against your body. Instead, this tape contores to your body and works with it to increase circulation and keep my pregnancy belly from sagging to relieve lower pelvic pain.

I have had 3 knee surgeries in the last 2 years and these tape products have been part of my recovery regiment. I cant list the different brands i have tried, bought and used over the years but I will say that this is by far the best I have I used. Same philosophy as the other tapes out there but the "glue" is what separates from all others, its noticeable the moment you put it on. Where as others (the better quality ones) will last a few days before fraying or peeling you will easily get a few more days of use from this one.... Most important the price...and the ebook HELPs

This is my first time to use any sort of kinesiology tape and admittedly I was a little skeptical. After injuring my shoulder I wanted to be able to still do some sort of workout so I bought this to help stabilize the joint. The tape does seem to do a decent job stabilizing the joint and my movements. I do feel noticeable cure in my injury.
Robin
For me, the tape starts to come off around day 3 or 4 and that's after a couple of workouts each day as well as showers. I am definitely impressed with the longevity of the adhesiveness of the tape as well as the elasticity.
the free taping guide helps great.

I got plantar fasciitis about a week before a trip to Paris. I knew I was going to be walking everywhere. I taped up my foot and was able to walk an average of 11 miles a day because of this. Sure, I needed some aspirin, but before the trip I was limping with every step. The pain was terrific before this tape. The tape stayed on for a week without me having to change it and I didn't have to limp. This really saved the day! The fact that it comes in colors is also a nice feature but one I did not need to take advantage of.

I have a drawer devoted to Plantar Fasciitis Paraphernalia. If it's on the market, I bought it, including over 40 pair of shoes in the last 8 years. I increase the size and width of my shoes and boots, use this tape method, wear foot "sleeves" and socks, with the best insoles I can find. I added stretching exercises 4 or 5 x's daily. The difference is the taping method---I've used all these techniques without the tape and the pain is back . With the tape I am at ease until my feet swell after 8 to 10 hours. For me, it is the best relief I've found. If you suffer with heel spurs and Plantar Fasciitis, I strongly suggest trying this tape.

Tried many different brands of KT tape. Most would last for at least a run but nothing stayed on in a wet run or in the pool. After a few laps it would come off. Picked this up because it was the cheapest. Also used Tuff adhesive. This tape stayed on through a few days of training which included: 60miles of bike riding, 2-1 hour runs, 2-1 hour swims and 2-30min sauna sessions. One key is to round the corners when cutting it otherwise the edges lift. Initially I didn't like that I had to cut the tape as the leading brand comes precut. I found that I waste a lot less tape and I actually prefer it. Good stuff. Worth switching brands.

Injured my ACL, MCL, and LCL all at once, lol, suffice to say it's been a rough recovery. My physical therapist start cutting and making a web with this (not this specific brand) to help with my swelling. At first I thought it was just placebo but having to do it so often, I decided to purchase this myself so I could be less dependent. Just a tip - it's better when you put it on yourself and not have someone else do it. You're the one who can feel where it moves / tugs on your body. Needless to say, I definitely believe in these now that I'm putting it on myself. This was the product I purchased so I have to vouch that they work great. Would definitely recommend!

I have pretty bad shoulders I usually get cortisone about every six months. I am in the gym fairly hard on a 5-6 day a week schedule as long as my body hold the work. I've gone on and off with my use of kinesiology tape, and have found Physix to be just as good if not better than the others. Where do they come in better? Price. ebook
and the tape has worked identically well as other brands.
The tape stays on!! It's a good product, good price,
