How to Use

2. Application:
   • Measure and Cut: Cut the desired length of KT tape from the roll. A typical application might require several pieces depending on the area being taped.
   • Anchor: Begin by anchoring one end of the tape on the skin without stretching it.
   • Stretch and Apply: Stretch the tape gently (10-50% stretch depending on the required support) and apply it along the muscle or joint. Follow the natural contours of the body for optimal support.
   • Smooth: Rub the tape gently to ensure it adheres well to the skin. This also activates the adhesive for better grip.
   • End without Stretch: Finish the application by laying down the last part of the tape without stretching it.
3. Post-Application:
   • Ensure there is no discomfort or excessive tightness. The KT tape should feel supportive but not restrict circulation.
   • Test your range of motion to confirm that the tape is providing the desired support without limiting movement excessively.
4. Removal:
   • To remove the tape, gently peel it off the skin starting from one end. Pull the tape back slowly and in the direction of hair growth to minimize discomfort.
   • If the tape is difficult to remove, use a tape remover or apply a small amount of baby oil or olive oil to loosen the adhesive.
