Review on Therapists Choice® Kinesiology Tape Beige by Terry Wilson

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Not the best quality among kinesiology recovery tapes

My physical therapist recommended/directed my physical therapist to use K-Tape (KG Physio K-Tape brand) for a knee injury with positive results and has been since I have used it so much that I thought I would buy it in bulk. Big mistake in this choice for which I have some responsibility as I was trying to save some money. Had to spend the extra money on another brand because this stuff is NOT the same quality AT ALL. The photo is a little hard to see but the tape is very thin and you can see the substrate. The tape above is real K-Tape and I personally see a very clear difference in the quality of the material. This brand has almost no stretch in length, no stretch in width, barely holds any tension, and barely sticks to my knee/slips off easily (and I didn't have lotion, I prepared accordingly). My knee felt unsupported and I had ongoing pain that was delaying and pushing back my knee rehabilitation. I do not recommend this tape. Wasted $30 and can't refund as I tried to use it only to buy another brand. **Update** I've attached a photo of my knee after 10 minutes of running. The tape is peeling off in several places.

Pros
  • Great for outdoor activities
Cons
  • Requires a power outlet
