@DrakeXX513 You can get it at Sports Authority, Dicks Sports, Big 5, Hibbetts, and Wal-mart. For a complete list of stores see kttape dot com- store locator. thx.

KT Tape Pro doesn't split. If you watch our latest video (there is a link on this video) you'll see we updated the technique so you can do it without splitting the tape. However, KT Tape Original still has the split if you prefer that.

You may want to visit our "ask an expert" forum on our website. We have several clinicians to help you get the right application.

@landgreenmtb Absolutely. The tape doesn't make your muscle dependent on the stimulus. One of the great things about KT Tape is that it is a therapeutic technique. If you got a massage every day for 3 weeks and then didn't get a massage anymore, you would obviously still be better off because of the massages, and would function fine without them. Getting the massage just made you that much more flexible and less tense - and that benefit doesn't end when the hands come off of you.

@jshealy KT Tape helps alot with stability. I'm sure our clinicians would recommend a custom app if you wanted to leave some details on our website under 'ask an expert'.

Would this be applicable for a labrum injury? Or rather, what type of taping strategy would be recommended for such?

@landgreenmtb The tape will not weaken the muscle; in fact, the tape will help you to train the muscle to gain strength. The tape will inhibit the muscle when you are not using it (open chain) and stimulate the muscle when you are (closed chain).

I've tried this application as well as the new one without splitting. I can't tell which one is more beneficial for me (one was a long run and the other was much shorter, so hard to say whether it worked at all during the short run as it doesn't bother me until I reach a certain mileage). The doctor says I have a sartorius strain, a weak hup abductor, and a weak hip flexor. Any advice about which tape application would be most helpful would be appreciated. Thanks!

you have said client is getting pain while flexing,what is your diagnosis? is it hip flexor spasm,trigger point,or inflammation or tear or weakness or adhesion?the purpose of tape doesnt seem so effect the way you are applying and moreover what is the exact function of blue second tape?why you dont try for donut and star tecnique?would you mind replying me?

@weinerpoopification no problem- just apply over the point of pain.

I see there's two videos on hip flexor; one with y tape and one with an ordinary strip. What is the difference?

interesting points, if anyone is searching for hippp flexor pain eeexerciseeees tryyyy twitter.com/7baafa8b34e54bac0/status/822776762270498816

So, is this how you tape for a shortened hip flexor? Is that why you tape in a stretched position? Do you tape different if the hip flexor is over-stretched? Thanks!

Could this help prevent hip dislocations

Sometimes after a while of walking slow, I get pain exactly where the dot is on her shorts. Like I can't fully flex my thigh. It feels like it desperately needs to pop but doesn't.

If you put the tape on in a different random way, would the injury get worse?

@annekebannekeboo Let us know how it works for you. Thx

@bardaso They do.

Do all kt tapes split like that , or do you have to buy a specific one ?

Scissors!

I have question! if is this kind tapes are dam good ...why professionals players as soccer or tennis ( by example) don't use this tape??

I don't really have significant pain anymore. The front of my leg just seems to hang and a standing x-ray shows the left hip is 9mm higher than the right. A heel lift is all I've found that helps in daily life. Might this help with stability during sports?

hip flexor strain in the last two weeks of track season :( hoping this helps! thanks

Can i do this before playing basketball?

Hey, I'm having some sharp pains just above my iliac crest? around the external oblique. It only happens when I lift my right leg to juggle the ball(soccer). I looked at a diagram and I believe it could be the oblique due to it hurting while I'm stabilizing on my left leg in which would use my core muscles slightly. Please help.

@LumosInc I have a question. I ripped my calf muscle and i cant walk on it because it hurts that much. what do you suggest? Im going to the doctor but how long is this going to hold me back?
