Mueller Sports Medicine Kinesiology Tape Pre-Cut Strips

Here's my experience with kinesiology tape: while in the midst of rehabbing from a knee replacement, I thought I might try some support tape to help with the pain during and after physical therapy, and to assist with mobility and proper alignment. While at a chain off-price retailer, I spotted a box of KT tape that was marked at a significant discount to what I had noted it sold for where I normally shop. So I thought I'd give it a try, and it helped. When I needed a second box, however, I couldn't find it at the same store, but instead found a box of Mueller tape, so I bought it instead. I think the Mueller tape is considerably better, as others here have noted. For one thing, it stretches better and stays put better. The support is great; although I will note that I don't use the knee-taping technique in the Mueller instructions, I still use the KT- method, which I just find easier. I think the difference with the Mueller tape is you will notice a wavy-line pattern on the adhesive side of the tape, which I think makes it stay on better. It is very comfortable once on; I'm wearing it right now as I type this, and I don't even feel it. I don't leave it on more than one day; I'd rather remove it to shower and put on fresh tape the next day, so I don't wear it at night, although I suppose you could. I tried wearing it once when I went lap-swimming, but it started coming off after a few laps, so I can't recommend it for that. But otherwise, it's been very helpful for me. It can be a little tough to remove (like a stuck-on band-aid), and being female, I shave my legs. So I imagine guys would want to shave before using this anywhere they have much body hair. I should also note that Mueller is a more cost-effective product than the KT brand, in my experience.
