Kinesiology tape MAXIMA, 5m x 5cm, White /49002002/

Kinesio tape roll 5 x 500 cm for application on any part of the human body. It is used to stabilize muscles, relieve muscle pain, reduce swelling and joint pain, and support the recovery process. The tape is made of a waterproof and breathable material and, depending on physical activity, can remain on the skin for 3-5 days. The combination of cotton and spandex provides the necessary strength, water resistance, air permeability, and quick drying, so it is suitable for showering or swimming while wearing it. Perfect adhesion is ensured by hypoallergenic adhesive that dries in 5 seconds. For maximum adhesion, the tape should be applied to clean, completely dry skin. There are two main application methods. In the first, the kinesio tape is applied to an already stretched muscle and tendon, which after contraction creates skin folds. In the second, the tape itself is stretched before application, and after it relaxes, skin folds form underneath it. When removing kinesio tape, it should be peeled off slowly in the direction of hair growth. It should be detached carefully and gradually without pulling sharply. Fingers can be placed between the tape and the skin to facilitate removal. Special care should be taken when applied to children or elderly people to avoid skin damage. In sports, kinesio tape is used as a supportive tool for normal physical activity, and in physiotherapy for recovery after injuries. It is also used during pregnancy, for headaches, and spinal deformities. Kinesio tapes come in different colors, but the color is not related to different properties; it is linked to the psychological effect of colors. The main colors are Beige, Black, Blue, and Pink. Black and Beige are neutral colors, Pink is considered a warm color that adds energy (used for muscle stimulation), while Blue is a cold color that reduces energy (used for swelling and bruises). The method of application is completely safe and non-invasive, and contraindications are mainly related to improper application and general physiotherapy restrictions. It should not be applied near or on cancerous areas, damaged or infected skin, in cases of allergy to kinesio tape, or in areas with venous diseases. Suitable for application on the whole body.
