How It Works: Mechanism of Action

Henkel Kinesiology Tape employs sophisticated biomechanical principles to deliver therapeutic benefits:

Neurological Effects: The tape interacts with the skin's sensory receptors, modifying pain signals to the brain and reducing the perception of discomfort. This neuromodulatory effect helps break the cycle of pain and muscle guarding that often accompanies injuries.

Fascial Manipulation: By gently lifting the skin, the tape creates space between the skin and underlying tissues, reducing pressure on pain receptors and lymphatic vessels. This space creation enhances fluid movement and reduces inflammatory buildup in the affected area.

Proprioceptive Enhancement: The tape provides subtle tactile cues to the nervous system, improving body awareness and movement patterns. This enhanced proprioception leads to better movement efficiency and reduced injury risk during athletic activities.

Circulatory Improvement: The unique wave-pattern adhesive application creates convolutions in the skin that increase interstitial space, facilitating improved blood and lymphatic flow. This accelerated circulation helps remove metabolic waste and deliver nutrients to injured tissues, speeding the healing process.

Application Guidelines

Surface Preparation

• Ensure skin is clean, dry, and free from oils, lotions, or moisture before application

• Shave excessive hair if necessary to ensure optimal adhesion

• Use alcohol wipes to thoroughly cleanse the area before tape application

Application Technique

• Cut rounded corners on tape ends to prevent premature peeling and enhance durability

• Stretch the tape according to therapeutic goals: 0% stretch for pain relief, 25-50% for muscle support, 75-100% for joint stabilization

• Avoid excessive stretching, which can cause skin irritation or compromise circulation

• Activate adhesive by rubbing the tape gently after application to generate heat

Duration & Removal

• Typical wear time: 3-5 days, depending on activity level and skin type

• Remove slowly and gently, pushing the skin away from the tape rather than pulling the tape off the skin

• Use oil-based products to facilitate removal if necessary
