TEMTEX Tourmaline kinesiology tapes offer impressive stretchability of nearly 160%, benefiting sports, medicine, and daily life. With over 15 years of development, TEMTEX® kinesiology tapes serve various purposes based on application, including support, pain reduction, enhanced lymph, and blood circulation, correcting joint instability, and expediting recovery. For certain joint support, kinesiology tape efficiently replaces traditional sports tape.
TEMTEX Tourmaline Kinesiology Tape adheres to the skin for 3-5 days, offering comfort, hypoallergenic, and no active ingredients. One 5-meter roll provides 5-10 applications. The tape color doesn’t affect its therapeutic qualities.
How to apply and remove kinesiology tape?
TEMTEX® Tourmaline Kinesiology Tape is best applied by a specialist like a physiotherapist or a masseur. However, if you’re familiar with the principles of tape application, you can do it yourself successfully.
If you have a sports activity planned, apply the tape to your body at least 20-30 minutes before the start of the training. First, locate the painful muscle. Then, choose the appropriate width and length of kinesiology tape for the muscle: for instance, a 7.5 cm-wide tape is most suitable for the broad back muscle, while a narrower 5 cm tape suits most other muscles. Round off the ends of the tape to help it adhere better. Clean the area and remove any hair before placing the tape. Gently stretch the muscle and place the tape, ensuring that the tape sticks well. Don’t stretch the tape itself too much; instead, place the tape on the stretched muscle. Make sure the tape forms small ripples when the muscle returns to its normal position. Keep the tape on the skin for 3-5 days.
Thanks to the fabric and heat-activated acrylic adhesive, the skin can breathe through the surface of the tape, making allergic reactions rare. However, if you experience itching or notice a rash after taping, remove the tape immediately.
To remove the tape, hold the skin with one hand and gently pull the tape off with the other hand. Do not abruptly tear off kinesiology tape from the skin.
