Kinesiology Tape - Speed Green 5 Meter Roll

My son was born with a musculoskeletal disorder in his feet and lower legs and I'd been reading about kinesiotaping to help with his stretches. He's only 6 months old, so I had to cut the tape's width in half. It went on perfectly and kept his feet in a passive stretch. It stayed on perfectly for three days and didn't pull up at all, even though I'd forgotten to round the edges of one part. When it was time to remove, I saturated the tape in oil (sunflower because it's what we had) and it came right off without leaving any redness or marks at all.

My son has CP and has a hard time using his right hand. His PT and OT regularly tape his hand, but he is a toddler and it gets dirty/wet pretty quickly so I ordered this to have my own and be able to redo their tape job when it comes off. This tape often lasts longer than theirs and it is so incredibly cute. My niece is obsessed with tattoos and she says all the time that it looks like my son has cool tattoo sleeves on when he is taped. Absolutely love it!

I love that it is gentle on skin but I can never get it to stay on feet for more than an hour. Works well on back and shoulder areas.

So much for this being a gentle tape. I have very sensitive skin so I bought this tape because it was supposed to be gentle enough for kids... as you can see in the pics it left a burning rash on my skin. Would definitely not recommend for kids or adults.

The parents of the kiddos have reported back that it doesn’t come off any easier than the regular kinesiology tape I was using. Which for some may be a bonus but I was hoping for one with easier removal but still decent adhesion. Maybe that is impossible. The littles love the monkey design!

Okay, so I am not a kid, but I had to get the monkeys because I love monkeys. This stuff is so great, it lasts long, is easy to apply and really does what it says. I've been using Kinesiology tape for a few months now and have just fallen in love with it because it had helped reduce my pain in my horribly destroyed arm and makes life a little easier.

I'm a pediatric physical therapist and I love using this tape. Kids really respond to the little monkeys and it is very gentle for their skin. The only downside would be that if the corners start to peel up then it doesn't stay on very long and compared to normal KT tape or Rock tape it's not quite as sticky. However, for the purpose for which it was intended I think it is a nice product.

This tape works wonders. I was skeptical, but seriously will use this from now on instead of pain medicine when I strain a muscle in my body
