Kinesio Tex Tape has been around for over 25 years. But it was only during the
2008 Olympics that many people became familiar with this product as numerous athletes
appeared in their competition sporting the tape. Why did they use it?

Kinesio Tex tape is an elastic therapeutic tape that was developed in Japan by Dr.
Kenzo Kase. Unlike other elastic tape products on the market today, Kinesio Tex Tape
has several unique features. These features are the main reason this tape is the gold
standard in sports medicine and rehabilitation.

  • Kinesio Tex tape does not limit range of motion
  • Kinesio Tex tape creates a lifting effect that contributes to better circulation in the
    affected area and therefore relieves pain and swelling.
  • Depending on the type of application, Kinesio Tex tape has the ability to relax or
    stimulate muscles.

This tape is completely latex free, breathable, it is made of a cotton fiber that mimics
human skin and it is economical because it can be worn for 3-5 days (even in the water).

(Please be aware that due to the popularity and the effectiveness of Kinesio Tex tape
over the years, many companies begun to produce imitation brands. They can look very
similar but for us, there is only one brand. We only trust the original Kinesio Tex tape for
best results and we encourage our patients to do the same.)
