This application technique is used for general knee pain that cannot be localized but is located in the knee area. You will need four strips of tape in the shape of an I. For this you can either use our Kintex Classic Tape and cut the strips yourself or you can use our Kintex PreCut Tape and tear the tape strips accordingly. When cutting the tape, make sure that you round off the corners, this will increase the durability.

Preparation and application of the Kintex Kinesiology Tape

To ensure better adhesion, you should first remove all oils, creams and hair from the affected area and also clean it with alcohol. Position the knee at about 80°, tear the backing paper in the middle and peel it off. Tape the first tape with maximum tension in a circle around the kneecap - starting on the inside - and make sure that the ends are taped without tension in each case. Repeat this process with a second tape on the opposite outside of the knee, again with maximum traction around the kneecap. Both tapes should run next to the kneecap rather than over it to encircle the kneecap and regulate pain.

Do the same with the third and fourth tapes, slightly overlapping tapes one and three as well as two and four.

Finally, swipe all the tapes on the knee from the inside out to activate the adhesive. Stretch out the knee to check. Waves or small folds of skin should now form on the kneecap, then the system is correctly applied and relief of the knee pain can occur.

Instructions for the use of Kintex kinesiology tape.

Kintex Tape should be left on for approximately 1 week, with the main effect expected in the first 3-5 days after application. You can shower, bathe, swim or do sports with the tape applied. Even sweating is possible under the tape.

ATTENTION: Please note that our articles as well as these instructions cannot replace the contacts with doctors and physiotherapists that may be necessary. Our products are not intended to replace professional advice, examinations, treatments, diagnoses, etc. by professionals, but only to support them. If you experience itching under the tape application, remove the tape immediately and consult a doctor or pharmacist if in doubt.

NOTE: The effect of kinesiology tapes is not scientifically proven, our statements are based on our years of experience.
