General Shoulder
When you are trying to alleviate a point of pain or provide a lifting support (like to the knee) you would use more tension. The higher tension allows the tape to lift the skin more over the point of pain which will help reduce the pain by decreasing pressure in that area and will provide excellent "brace-like" support for the knee.
I tried this on my shoulder to minimize my shoulder pain, and now I can't sleep at night with the pain going twice as hard now on my head also and right neck
this stuff is awesome. loving it
Chris, I really admire your videos. Very clear, to the point, and excellent explanation for each step. Brent, OT Chicago
Thanks for the reply! Very cool - sounds like there are lots of ways to apply the tape!

Hi There, I play cricket. During playing I dive on the ground to stop the ball but my entire body weight went onto the shoulder. I do not have much pain now but when I rotate my arm there is slight pain or unrestness. Could you please let me know if I could use KT like shown in above video. Thanks and Regards,
Are y’all father and son?!?
a football player has some nerve damage from the neck to shoulder is there a way to tape that? Thanks
How long are the "strips' ? The KT Tape I have is one continuous roll and needs to be cut.
Why the stretch? And what difference does it make between the 25%, 50%, and 75% I hear/see on this and other video of yours? What does it do and/or what effects does it have?
Natalie, Unfortunately it is hard to do this one without help. If you have anyone to help you that will facilitate things a lot. As far as placement, for this one just do your best to feel the muscle before you lay it down so you can get as close to the placement shown in the video. With the rotator cuff you'll want to follow the top of the shoulder blade down toward the spine. If you still have other questions send an email to [email protected] and we'll get you taken care of.
Cheers for the video. Really enjoy You tube because of this kind of stuff...My step brother used to be bullied. He explained he was planning to get bigger. I chuckled... Until out of nowhere he packed on 40lbs of complete muscle. He tried the Muscle Building Bible - look in Google. No one dares to bully him nowadays. I subscribed earlier this week. See what goes on. Not to mention the mans emails are fucking excellent...
This video features KT Tape Pro.

Hi Chris harper, good vid. Do you happen to also know about how to help treat a badly sprained thumb, the thumb was hyperextended back with force a. Happened in a split second, it was re-aggravated twice, thumb is very stiff. I can do the Ok sign ad thumbs up, but difficult to put thumb in middle of palm. The knuckle area feels jammed and stuck.
Crazy clip. Nice clip. My younger brother was once a fat. He remodeled himself from 283 lbs of fat to 207lbs of purely natural muscle. I used to be floored. I just subscribed personally because I'm planning to get more impressive muscle mass. He used the Muscle Building Bible (Search on Google)...
Damn )) Copies :) Congrats Doctor)

The amount of stretch depends on the injury and body part you are taping. For some you need more resistance and others less. It will give support and stability and increase circulation.
Please answer my question if KTTAPE good to relieve painful calcification on my shoulder ?

I have an entire role of KT brand tape and no matter what I do it doesn't stick! I have my guys shower first, then I wipe the area with alcohol to remove oils, I've tried everything and the tape just comes right off....

Thanks for the reply. Could you tell in what cases you need some more resistance and the others less? I.e. When targeting deeper muscles, then more stretch??
