It is an amazing tool and can help out a lot. That being said, it doesn't work for every condition. But, can be very effective.

I sure would like to try a sample for my husband (fortunately I don't have any injuries myself right now, but of course that could change anytime!). He's a tennis player not a runner as such, though he does run a little to keep in shape for his tennis game, but he has a bad knee, bad shoulder, bad elbow, actually looking at this list I'm wondering if he has any joints that DON'T hurt, so I wouldn't mind trying this out on him to see if it helps.Janette Wolfhttp://profiles.google.com/janettemwolfnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7001874779832700509.post-72653735664858572232011-04-10T19:51:19.852-04:002011-04-10T19:51:19.852-04:00I really like KT Tape.

That being said, tape shouldn't treat injuries and it didn't help me get through the marathon since my injury was beyond repair at the time. I highly recommend it for someone at the end of a training cycle. That being said, I don't need any as I bought 3 packs of it last fall and still have 2 packs left.David H.http://twitter.com/RunningBecausenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7001874779832700509.post-20815474885910132202011-04-10T19:34:45.176-04:002011-04-10T19:34:45.176-04:00I used some and had my husband apply for a shoulde...I used some and had my husband apply for a shoulder issue. It was helpful. He applied it as instructed and it held everything in place. We tried it on my knee, but we just didn't get it right. <br /><br />Found out my chiropractor is certified to apply kinesiology tape. He taped me each week for about 3 weeks for my weekend long runs and soccer games. It helped a ton. I was having terrible swelling and pain after activity, but with the taping I was able to continue my training and playing pain free and once my legs strengthened up a bit, was able to run support free. <br /><br />If I start having any issues, my plan it to see the chiro and pay $10 to get taped up. Worth it to me if I'm training for something big.Blanda_Amanianoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7001874779832700509.post-80420908382065782102011-04-10T18:45:02.939-04:002011-04-10T18:45:02.939-04:00I have had KT Tape recommended to me many times bu...I have had KT Tape recommended to me many times but have not had the opportunity to try it yet. I suffer from IT Band issues in my right leg and have always wondered if KT Tape would help. It's one of those things that I keep meaning to try but never get around to picking up after a race or run. I was looking to try them at the Princess Half Marathon back in Feb but they weren't a vendor for that event (weird huh?). I don't know if KT Tape will help my IT Band issues but it couldn't hurt to give it a shot.Shawn Hillhttp://profiles.google.com/shawnrhillnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7001874779832700509.post-70338776239852204252011-04-10T17:28:45.736-04:002011-04-10T17:28:45.736-04:00I've never even heard of it before!I've never even heard of it before!AndrewENZhttp://www.andrewisgettingfit.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7001874779832700509.post-49753738249810245052011-04-10T17:10:35.586-04:002011-04-10T17:10:35.586-04:00I've used KT Tape a lot and really like what i...I've used KT Tape a lot and really like what it does, especially for my knee pain. I haven't had to use it for a few weeks because I've been pain free, but I have to say it REALLY does work well. I purchased a huge roll of it a year ago and have used almost all of it. THAT's how well it works for me. I hope I don't need it again, but you never know. :)Gina Harrisnoreply@blogger.com
