The Tape Seen at the Beijing Olympics
Kinesio Tape became an overnight sensation after taking the spotlight at the Beijing Olympics. Since then, use of this amazing therapeutic tape has exploded, not only in athletics, but also in the medical field. Its ability to quickly relieve pain and inflammation have made it a favorite therapeutic modality for injuries, overuse syndromes and even the aches and pains of everyday living.
Also known as Kinesio Tex Tape or Kinesio Tex Gold, Kinesio Tape is light and stretchy, with the same thickness and elasticity as human skin. This allows it to provide support and therapeutic benefits without restricting range of motion - a critical factor for athletes needing to remain active as they recover from injuries. Unlike traditional athletic tape or sports tape which can only be worn for brief periods, most Kinesio applications can be worn 3-5 days. This allows the therapeutic benefits to continue, 24/7, the entire time it's worn.
KinesioTape is made of soft cotton, and contains no latex or medications. It has a light, medical-grade adhesive made from 100% hypoallergenic acrylic. The adhesive is heat-activated – simply apply to the skin and rub briskly to activate. It is easily removed and leaves no sticky residue. Moisture dissipates quickly through the porous material of the tape, allowing it to withstand sweating, showering and even swimming without coming off or irritating skin.
