AcuTop kinesiology tape is an elastic sports tape applied directly to the skin over muscles and joints. Healthana Bahrain carries the AcuTop Classic roll in a 5 cm width and 5 m length, a common size for knees, shoulders, calves and lower back taping.

Using kinesiology tape

Cut the roll to the length you need and round the corners so the edges stay down. Apply to clean, dry skin free of oils or lotion, and rub the tape after applying to help the adhesive set. The Classic tape is water-resistant, so it can stay on through a shower or sweaty training session. Remove it slowly in the direction of hair growth.

Frequently asked questions

How long can kinesiology tape stay on?

Many people wear it for a few days, but follow the instructions on the pack and remove it earlier if the skin becomes itchy or red.

Can I shower or swim with the tape on?

The AcuTop Classic tape is water-resistant. Pat it dry with a towel afterwards rather than rubbing it.

Should I use kinesiology tape for an injury?

For pain or a new injury, see a doctor or physiotherapist first. They can also show you how to apply the tape for your situation.
