KNS Extra Wide Kinesiology Tape for Pain Relief and Muscle Support

The KNS Extra Wide Kinesiology Tape is a water-resistant product designed to provide pain relief and muscle support for various conditions. It works by slightly lifting the skin to create spaces in the underlying tissues, which can help relax lymphatic circulation, capillary blood flow, and free nerve endings. This ultimately helps increase circulation and reduce swelling in injured areas, improving blood flow and lymphatic fluid movement.

One of the key features of this kinesiology tape is that it leaves no residue or irritating stickiness after removal. It can be used for a variety of applications, including tendonitis, arthritis, bursitis, edema, muscle tightness and aches, back and neck pain, muscle weakness and imbalances, and during physiotherapy.

To use the tape effectively, it should be applied at least one hour before exercise, on a clean and dry area of the skin. When removing the tape, it should be done slowly to avoid any discomfort.

Kinesiology tape, also known as kinesio tape or KT tape, is a type of elastic tape used to support muscles and joints. It helps reduce pain, improve circulation, and prevent injuries, making it a popular choice among athletes and individuals seeking to enhance their performance and recovery.

Unlike traditional taping methods that restrict joint mobility, kinesiology tape aims to support the muscle, joint, and ligament structures without limiting the range of motion. This allows the body's natural healing process to be facilitated by reducing edema and increasing circulation and movement.

Kinesiology tape can be used in various situations, such as by a runner with shin splints to support the muscles in the shinbone and reduce pain, or by a tennis player with tennis elbow to support the elbow muscles and prevent further injury. It can also be used by individuals with physical therapy edema and chronic back pain to support the back muscles and alleviate pain.

Kinesiology tapes are designed to reflect the characteristics of the skin and allow for a stretch of 55-60% of their longitudinal current state. Their elasticity maintains effectiveness for 3-5 days, and they do not stretch transversely. The tapes are made of polymer elastic fibers wrapped in 100% cotton fibers, which allows for fast drying and moisture evaporation.

Importantly, kinesiology tapes are latex-free and hypoallergenic, making them an ideal option for individuals with sensitive skin. The waterproof features of these tapes also allow them to be used during swimming or other water sports, providing support without irritating the skin.

In summary, the KNS Extra Wide Kinesiology Tape is a versatile and effective product that can help reduce pain, improve circulation, and prevent injuries, particularly for those with sensitive skin or who engage in water-based activities.
