Using Kinesiology Tape Carefully follow instructions in the taping application guide that was supplied with your VARA KT. In it you will find instructions for a number of the most common taping applications, along with some essential tips for getting the most out of your kinesiology tape.

Step 1 :Hold the tape with both hands near the starting point of where you would like to tape (can be center or ends), and pull apart gently – with minimal force, create a tear in the backing paper at one edge.

Step 2 :-


Work the same tear from one side of the strip to the other until the backing paper is broken into two portions, both still attached to the tape.

Step 3 :Peel back paper just enough of the paper to have an exposed region of adhesive with which you can begin to apply to your body.


Step 4 :Press this exposed portion down on your skin with the remaining backing paper still applied. Rub the tape down into the skin for proper adhesion – the heat cause by the friction will activate the adhesive.


Step 5 :Lift away the backing paper in the direction of each end (one at a time), all the while continuously pressing the newly exposed adhesive portion into the skin. if you want stretch in the tape, pull the tape end before pressing down.
