TEMTEX® kinesiology tapes have an impressive tensile strength of up to 160%, making them ideal for sports, medicine and everyday life. Developed for more than 15 years, TEMTEX® bands perform a variety of functions such as providing support, reducing pain, improving circulation, correcting joint instability and speeding recovery. For certain joint support needs, TEMTEX Kinesiology Tape 5cm x 32m effectively replaces traditional sports tape. TEMTEX Kinesiology Tape 5cm x 32m stays on the skin for 3-5 days, provides comfort, hypoallergenicity and is drug-free. Each five metre roll contains 5-10 applications. The colour of the tape does not affect its therapeutic properties. How do I put on and take off the kinesiology tape? Although professionals such as physiotherapists and massage therapists know how to apply kinesiology tape, you can do it successfully on your own, following the right guidelines. If you are going to exercise, apply the tape to your body at least 20 to 30 minutes before your workout. Start by identifying the area where you feel discomfort. Then choose the right width and length of tape for the muscle in question: for example, a 7.5 cm tape is suitable for the broad back muscle, while a narrower 5 cm tape is suitable for most other muscles. Round the edges of the band to ensure a longer grip. Remove any hair and make sure the skin at the site of the tape is clean. Place the muscles in a tense position. Make sure that the tape itself is not stretched, but is placed on the stretched muscle in its normal position, as excessive stretching of the tape may cause damage to the skin. Place the kinesiology tape on the muscle and rub gently to strengthen the grip. With proper application of the tape, the muscle should return to its natural state and wrinkles should form. Keep the tape on the skin for 3-5 days. The fabric and the heat-activated acrylic adhesive allow the skin to breathe through the surface of the tape, reducing the risk of allergic reactions. If you feel itching or skin irritation after applying the tape, remove it immediately. To remove the tape, hold the skin with one hand and gently and slowly remove the tape with the other hand. Do not remove the kinesiology tape abruptly as this may cause skin irritation. .
