Kinesiology tape RockTape

The Kinesio Strap is non-restrictive, works immediately and is suitable for both professional and self-use. RockTape is distinguished by its extremely strong, waterproof adhesive, making it ideal for water sports enthusiasts. Its high elongation of almost 180% makes it a favourite among athletes.

RockTape (5 cm × 5 m) stays on the skin for 2-7 days and is free of active ingredients but has a stabilising and supportive effect. One 5 m roll lasts approximately 5-10 times. The colour and pattern of the tape do not affect its therapeutic properties.

How do I use the kinesiology tape?

Ideally, the tape should be applied by a professional – a physiotherapist or massage therapist. However, if you know the principles of taping, you can do it yourself.

• ✔ Apply the tape 20-30 minutes before your workout.
• ✔ Choose the right length and width of the band – a 5 cm band is suitable for most muscles.
• ✔ Cut the ends of the tape round to help it last longer.
• ✔ Clean and dry the skin, removing hairs if necessary.
• ✔ Keep the muscle in a stretched position, but do not stretch the band itself.
• ✔ Rub lightly after sealing – heat activates the adhesive.
• ✔ The band should bend slightly as the muscle returns to its normal position.

Removal and precautions

• ✔ When removing – hold the skin with one hand and gently pull the tape with the other.
• ✔ Do not use sudden, quick movements – this can irritate the skin.
• ✔ Remove the tape immediately if itching or rash occurs.
