Instructions<\/h1>\n

Healthcare professionals have been teaching patients for years how to apply kinesiology tape themselves. Don\u2019t be afraid to jump in and just go for it the first time you try and tape yourself. It generally takes 3 or 4 times to get comfortable with taping before you\u2019ll be taping like the pros. Here are a few tips that will help:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Make sure the skin is clean and dry, free from lotions\/oils (suntan lotion, skin conditioner, topical treatments, etc). We\u2019ve even found that some bath soaps have moisturizers in them that leave a residue behind, so if you want to play it safe just clean the skin with rubbing alcohol before applying. Look also here:\u00a0http:\/\/kttape.ee\/en\/instructions\/stability-of-the-tape\/<\/a><\/li>\n
  2. If applying KT Tape on a joint, be sure the joint is in a fully bent position. If the tape is applied over a knee or elbow in an extended position the tape will pull off as the joint is moved.<\/li>\n
  3. Never stretch the first or the last of the tape on either end. The tape on the ends should be applied directly to the skin without stretching, otherwise, it will pull up and will not stick.<\/li>\n
  4. Lastly, be sure to set the adhesive by firmly rubbing the tape & make sure all the edges are down. For best results apply the tape 30 minutes before athletic activity<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    *Do not use KT Tape if you have been diagnosed with cancer as it may interfere with treatment and disease management strategies employed by your medical professionals.
    \n*Do not use KT Tape on abdominal applications if pregnant.<\/p>\n
