KINESIOLOGIE Sport tape 5 cmx5 m blue, 1 piece

Product description

The colors of the kinesiology tapes have no effect on the tensile strength or texture of the material.Rather, they serve fashionable and sometimes psychological purposes.Blue is considered a cold color that can promote vasoconstriction and have an anti-inflammatory effect.

The tape rolls have dimensions of 5 meters long and 5 centimeters wide.The elasticity of the tapes corresponds to around 30% of human skin, which ensures they are comfortable to wear.For optimal adhesion and effect, the skin should be cleaned, degreased and depilated before sticking.The glue used is a skin-friendly acrylic glue.

The optimal wearing time of the tape is up to 6 days.Afterwards it should be renewed as it loses its effectiveness.The corners of the tape are rounded to prevent faster detachment from the skin and to extend adhesion.The tape can also be worn when showering or bathing, but it can come off sooner if you exercise intensively or sweat heavily.

No prescription is required for this product.Kinesio taping specialists undergo extensive training.It is recommended to first seek help from an expert, such as an orthopedist or physical therapist, before applying the tape yourself.If the tape tingles on the skin, it should be carefully removed and any remaining adhesive removed.

Instructions for use

Before using kinesiology tape, you should do an allergy test, especially if you are allergic to tape.Stick a piece of tape about 5x5 cm in size into the crook of your arm and wait 30 minutes.Carefully peel off the tape and observe the skin for reactions such as redness or tingling.If your skin reacts, consult a doctor.

Prepare the skin by removing hair and degreasing the areas to be glued.Do not apply cream to the skin as grease and cream reduce the adhesiveness of the tape.Cut the tape from the roll to the desired length, round off the corners and peel off the silicone film from the back.Apply the tape to the cleansed skin areas using the desired pulling force and technique and rub it lightly on the skin to increase the adhesive strength.Be careful not to strangulate any vessels.If the tape feels uncomfortable or causes pain, remove it immediately.

To achieve better results, you should initially consult a professional such as a physiotherapist or orthopedist.There are numerous videos on the Internet that provide information on application examples.
