Kinesio Taping - Elastic Athletic Tape for Therapists - Beige – 2 in. x 16.4 ft

Kinesio Tex Gold FP is an innovative muscle and joint support tape that has been specifically developed for Kinesio professionals. Since the early 1970s, Kinesio has been dedicated to advancing technologies to uphold its vision of "Taping the World for Health". The tape features a renowned wave pattern that incorporates patented Fingerprint (FP) technology and Nano Touch stimulation, enhancing its effectiveness on the epidermis and the skin’s superficial layers. Designed to simulate a gentle human touch, Kinesio Tex Gold FP utilizes a Micro-grip deep set adhesive, applied during its manufacturing process, to provide superior grip while minimizing adhesive surface area.

This super thin athletic tape matches the thickness and elasticity of human skin and muscles, and its application technique aligns with the body’s natural healing processes, stimulating both the neurological and circulatory systems. Enhanced by an improved cotton weave that employs FingerPrint (FP), Nano-touch, and Micro-grip technologies, Kinesio Tex Gold FP offers excellent support and stability while allowing a full range of motion without compromise.

The tape is specifically engineered with a stretch capacity of 30-40%, which gently lifts the skin to alleviate soreness, reduce inflammation, and relieve edema, all while providing essential support to surrounding soft tissues without hampering movement. Made from high-grade cotton, the Kinesio Tex Gold FP tape is hypoallergenic and latex-free. It can be worn continuously for up to 3-5 days, offering maximum effectiveness. The medical-grade, heat-activated acrylic adhesive is constructed from porous material, enabling the skin beneath to breathe and allowing moisture to evaporate swiftly, making it resistant to sweating, showering, and swimming.

For those considering the application of Kinesio Tex Tape, it is highly advised to consult with a Certified Kinesio Taping Practitioner (CKTP) to ensure proper usage and method application.

Kinesio tape, invented by Dr. Kenzo Kase, an American-trained chiropractor, has revolutionized rehabilitation practices since its inception. Dr. Kase identified the necessity for a fresh approach to therapy while treating patients with rheumatoid arthritis in the 1970s. His innovative methods continue to influence rehabilitation strategies globally, changing how therapists provide care.
