Curad Performance Series Far Infrared Kinesiology Tape, Black

The media could not be loaded.  Rating: ★★★★★ (5/5)I am writing this review after several weeks of using the CURAD IM Kinesiology Tape and I must say, it has thoroughly exceeded my expectations.Firstly, the application of this tape is fairly straightforward and easy, even for those who have never used kinesiology tape before. The pre-cut strips simplify the process greatly and there is an included guide which offers very clear instructions on how to apply the tape for different types of injuries or support needs. The adhesion is superb, sticking firmly to the skin without causing any discomfort or irritation. Despite its strong adhesive properties, it's also easy to remove when the time comes, and it doesn't leave any sticky residue behind.Moreover, the CURAD IM Kinesiology Tape has brought about a noticeable improvement in my muscle support and pain management. I have used it on my shoulder, which has been giving me trouble for some time, and within days, I noticed a significant reduction in discomfort and an increase in stability. The elasticity of the tape perfectly mimics the natural give and pull of muscles and skin, which means it doesn't limit my mobility at all.The tape's water-resistant properties are also commendable. Whether it's during a sweaty workout, a swim in the pool, or a hot shower, the tape remains adhered and effective. Despite this, the material allows for the skin to breathe, avoiding any maceration or discomfort that other tapes might cause.Lastly, the roll provides good value for the price. Despite daily use, I still have plenty left. This tape is indeed a cost-effective solution for those seeking regular therapeutic relief and support.A word of advice, though - if you're applying the tape yourself and it's your first time, don't hesitate to seek guidance from a professional, like a chiropractor or physical therapist, to ensure you're applying it correctly.

People that use KT tape understand the inherent downfalls. CURAD is thicker better stretch for knees and STICKS no matter what. Removing it doesn't take 8 layers of skin either. Pain free removal.

I've been using kinesiology tape for a couple years on my crummy knees, till Dr. W. M**sco puts the bionic ones in! I actually have LEARNED how to correctly apply them. I like the split K tapes better for knees. (The divine Dr. M will replace the remaining one later this year) That typed, these aren't quite what I had hoped for, but I suppose one gets what one pays for!

I’ve been using CURAD Performance Series IRONMAN Far Infrared Kinesiology Tape and I’m loving it! I have struggled off and on with plantar fasciitis over the years and this works perfect. It provides amazing support and stays put! As long as you follow the directions and apply it to clean dry skin it won’t come off! It will even last through swim sessions. I have used it for issues with my neck, providing support and relief from pain, as well as support on my knee after straining it at the gym. I have used it during a few triathlons and it stayed on through the swim, bike, run, sweat, dirt and tears. Bonus, it comes in pink!

We tried on several patients from knees to elbow. Other than it stick real well. Nothing else was noticeable

This is an awesome product...huge help for my recent shoulder issues! And I absolutely love the pink!

I have used KT tape for 4 years with mixed results --then i read about the infrared technology in the Ironman tape and so thought why not try it ? -- the results have been truly amazing -- my left knee pain has been reduced substantially and I am running at a faster pace and longer --I even ran 15 miles on the beach in San Diego last Sunday, my longest training run since 2016 --I now leave it on all the time --and I get about a week out of every strip --If you have tried all the other types of tape with mixed results then I would truly recommend giving this tape a try.

Very good kinesiology tape. Use it for my knees and shoulders. Stays long term even through showers and swimming as long as have the skin very clean. Comfortable for longer term wear and holds up through long workouts. Have used it for half Ironman and held up no problem, next test is the full Ironman!
