+Mike Wonsik There are a few suggestions for relieving shin splints naturally Ensure you consume enough fruit and vegetables. Take vitamin C Use herbs which cleanse the body eg milk thistle Use herbs with infection fighting properties such as myrrh and burdock and others including echinacea (I discovered these and why they work from Remedy Fixer Blueprint site )

Thanks a lot! I had this terrible pain several months ago; due to that and other different circumstances I quit running and now that I started again this hell is back. One important thing about shin splints is recognizing why they appear, in my case one day I drastically increased my running workout and the following day I could barely walk. Moral of the story: be aware of how much running I can do and stop when my body indicates.

I agree with Mike. These videos need to be edited so they are linear. I've been a video editor for 17 years. I'd never put 'helpful tips' meant for before applying at the END of a video. I love these tutorials and thank you KT for doing them. But seriously...do a quick re-edit. It'd take you less than a day.

As soon as I put this tape on, my shin felt so much better!

You could cut them into "Y" strips but we have found that using two different strips is more effective and helps the tape stay on longer.

Thank you! I got a terrible shin splint at work...could hardly walk. I applied KT tape and can walk again with literally zero pain. Amazing!!! Thanks much:)

You can adjust it to cover your pain. Just move the first vertical strip over to the other side and reverse the two short strips so you are pulling them opposite as is shown in the video.

Thanks fucker for telling me I had to shave my legs at the END of the video.

Vicki and Amy, The tape is used before, during and after playing sports. It does great for shin splints. When you purchase the tape, the colors don' t mean anything, they're just colors. All the tape comes in the same size. Follow the video and you'll be fine. Check Rebel Running stores to pick some up. If you can't find it, let us know and you can get it from us.

How long do you leave these on at a time, how often do you change them

Place the small strips at the upper and lower range of your pain. You can also apply an additional half strip in between if you need to.

Thanks for the tips at the END of the video...

To show you the power of flex tape I SAWED MY SHIN IN HALF

I need this for my schin splints. Ouch!

The main difference is that with the newer method you get more coverage over the area of pain. We recommend that people use the newer method, but if you're partial to the old method that's just fine. You can adjust this to fit your specific area of pain. If your pain is more lateral then you can adjust to cover that. Hope that helps.

Both will be effective. This video is the most up to date application we have. It's the easiest while maintaining its effectiveness.

Duck tape does not breathe or move with your skin. KT Tape stretches so it moves with your body and is breathable and you can wear it for multiple days through showers and workouts.

You certainly can. I would just be careful not to catch the edge of the tape with the roller.

The original is $12.99 and the Pro is $19.99. You can wear each application for a week with the Pro so for example, shin splints uses 2 strips of tape and there's 20 strips per roll so you've got 10 weeks of tape. This will vary depending on which application you use but it should be between 6-10 weeks per roll.

KT Tape will not stick to hairy parts very well. I just had to shave to use it. You can buy from any Sports store. I purchased mine from Big 5. eBay also has it.

1-3 days for the original and 3-7 days for the Pro.

how do you figure out where your site of pain is? it seems like that my entire anterior shin is sore so i dont know where to put the last two strips of tape

I have pain about five inches above my ankle inside as well but also in the front of my shin. I'm confused as to what taping method I should use....????

Yes. You should adjust the application according to your specific pain.

Any of our KT Tape will work for your shin splints. We used KT Tape Pro in the video which is what I would recommend because of how long it stays on. All the colors are the same so whichever color you prefer. If it's just athletic tape you're using now I would switch to KT Tape. Let us know how it goes!

Thank you for the reply. I will be using the new method of application this coming friday. I am sure it'll help tremendously. :)

Why are the pink tapes being pulled in from the anterior side? Shouldn't it be applied from the posterior side in order to pull the tissues "inward"?

Yes. We have several derby girls that use the tape with great results.

We get great results with this application. Feel free to post on twitter or FB and ask people what their results were with this application.

Two 10 inch strips. One of them has been cut in half to form two 5 inch strips.

I have shin splints pain of the outside (Lateral to the tibia) does that change the direction i tape the 2 small strips?

Just got the wrap for running I’ll come back tomorrow to see if it helped with the pain

i have hair on my legs and i have shin splints and the tape didn't stick at all to my legs. i put the first piece on and it fell off before i could put the second piece going across on.

What is the tape supposed to do? Compress it?

Why is she looking at me like that😟

The adhesive bonds to the skin, not to hair so if you have a lot of hair I would trim it back. It will stay on longer and hurt less coming off.

How can she hold that facial expression for so long 😐

This may not be the right application for you. I would recommend going to our "ask an expert" forum on our website and describing your pain and what you are doing when it hurts and on of our experts will come back with a customized application for you.

I just recently started running and have horrible shin splints so my running coach suggested this tape. Does this technique also work on anterior shin splints or more for posterior shin splints? Thanks!

This is very helpful, except for one small problem... I'm a track runner and basketball player. During my basketball season I had pain on the outside-ish of my right leg. But now that track's started, I get pain on my left leg, approximately 4-5 inches directly above the bulge of bone (of the ankle) on the outside of my shin. Would I simply adapt this method to fit that area, or is there another video that would be better?

Would you recommend foamrolling the chin while having the tape on?

Where can i buy that tape and how much will it cost ?

when cant we touch the adhesive side of the tape while applying?

Try our application for peroneal tendonitis, or you can visit our website and go to our "ask an expert" forum for some advice from a pro.

Yes. You'd just reverse them to go in the opposite direction.

Not sure I understand the question.

how much does this cost?

Grrr, I don't think I did it right. This one is a bit trickier compared to the hip flexor.

Why is it important to not touch the adhesive?

What if your legs are hairy asf? Lol

Hi ... you have 2 videos ... which one do I know us best for me? Thank you

I just realized the guy said 'interior' so i guess the application method is the same if the site of pain was a little bit more lateral than his demonstration. I am curious though if there's a difference in outcome in terms of effectiveness or percieved relief when using the 'old' version of application ( with the tape being split into a 'y') versus this type of application? Thanks again!

Rocktape >> KT tape. KT tape falls off, Rocktape comes off when I want it to.

You should have great results with this application. Let us know how it goes!

If the pain points are on the anterior side of the bone, would you start the second and third pieces of tape on the inside of the leg and stretch it toward the outside instead?

its great to relieve pressure on a muscle but how would I apply it if it is even possible to strengthen a muscle?

I hope this helps me! I just started running again and the pain afterwords is making me not want to run very often.

Try shaving the hair. The tape will stick much better.

Ok, im just wondering, will this way of applying tape only go for kt tape, or can you use different tape?

The hair on my leg won't allow tape😂😂

Seems like a video posted in 2012

if i have hypertonic knee extensors( quads), i can put the tape to help relieve pressure and tension right? but what if i have weak flexors(eg. hamstrings) can I put the tape in a way that stimulates them for strengthening?

Absolutely. Let us know how it goes!

Awesome. Those are the best kind of tan lines :)

anyone else have problems with the adhesive not working?

But if you just compress it. How will you know its a stress fracture?

Shin split sufferers you need nose breathing- antioxidant supplements (quercetin, pycnogenol, astaxanthin etc.), vitamin D, increase nitric oxide levels (drink beetroot juice and take l-arginine, l-citrulline supplements) and at least 2,5lt water a day and maybe wear compression socks. This problem is un oxygenated muscle problem... and than do your stretch workouts. I am not a doctor just a sufferer like you, so before doing any of these ask your doctor if it is ok for you.

could you cut the "I" strips in half to make "Y" strips or would you use two different strips?

Dawg tell us the tips before the stuff tho but we good

Hi, I think I also suffer shin splits but im not 100%. The red dot shown on the participant showing the site of pain is lower for me. My pain is located just above the Kt logo on the green strip. Its absolutely painful when i start running on hard surface or even when I walk fast. Are these symptoms shin splits or something else? Ive had this issue quite a while now. Thank you.

Can I do this and not shave?

I have more than one painful point in my shin so how would I tape it?

I'm a dancer and shin splints are common. The pain is a little bit under my knee, though. Does it have to be so low to be shin splints?

for this??

can i do the same thing if my pain is on the outside of my leg?

Coming off the tail end of a tibial stress fracture. Looking at all options to not get reinjured and this is just one. Is KT tape worn more at rest or is it recommended to wear while running too?

I bought the tape but im quite disappointed with it. Not even 10 minutes into my soccer practice and my bands started to peel off.

I have many points of pain that just go up and down my shin how do I adjust taping to that?

This application will hold your muscle in place so it cannot pull away from the bone and cause shin splints. You'll be amazed!

That's very unusual. Most people experience great relief from shin splints. Are you sure you applied it correctly?
