Rayon, not cotton.

Classic kinesiology tape is made of cotton. Ours is not. Rayon is a smooth, fine fibre made from cellulose, densely woven and light on the skin. Made for long days, sweat and the shower afterwards.

What we promise. And what we don’t.

We promise a material that holds: pre-cut, water-resistant, breathable, with a hypoallergenic acrylic adhesive.

We do not promise that tape heals. The effect of kinesiology tape has not been clearly proven by science. Whether and how you use tape is best discussed with your physiotherapist or doctor.

Questions

What visitors ask.

How long can I wear the tape?

Up to 7 days, no longer please. How long it stays on for you depends on your skin, your sport and the spot.

Can I shower and swim with it?

Yes, the tape is water-resistant. Afterwards, pat it dry with a towel. Do not rub.

I have sensitive skin. Is that a problem?

The acrylic adhesive is hypoallergenic. Still, test a small piece for 24 hours first. If your skin turns red, itches or burns, take the tape off straight away.

How do I take it off?

Slowly and gently, in the direction of hair growth.

When should I not use tape?

Not on injured or irritated skin. Not on the belly during pregnancy. Please do not use it if you have cancer. Keep out of the reach of children.
