NYG Kinesiology Tape?

Begins with a thin, stretchy fabric, backed with an adhesive made from a hypoallergenic, medical-
grade acrylic that is flexible, comfortable and non-irritating to most skin types. NYG Kinesiology
Tape is latex-free and does not contain any medications or topical ingredients.

NYG Kinesiology Tape unique features

• NYG KT is effective on its own, but can be combined with other therapeutic modalities for
even greater impact.
• NYG KT is worn around the clock for several days (needs to be changed after every 3 days
for better results and avoid skin irritation), providing therapeutic benefits the entire time.
• NYG KT is one of the least expensive but most effective therapeutic modalities available.
• NYG KT has no side effects and few contraindications.

Benefits of NYG Kinesiology Tape

The list of NYG KT benefits is so extensive and so varied, and it has become one of the most
widely used therapeutic modalities in both athletic and healthcare settings. 
Physical benefits of NYG KT:
Pain Relief
Although it contains no medications or topical substances, NYG KT can effectively relieve both
acute and chronic pain. Its elasticity lifts the skin slightly, which immediately reduces pressure on
sensitive pain receptors under the skin. In addition, it’s stimulating effect on pain pathways provides
a competitive stimulus that blocks pain signals going to the brain. This is especially effective for
pain from “hot” injuries, where the intensity of the pain is out of proportion to the severity of the
injury.
Reduced Swelling and Inflammation
NYG KT reduces pressure on the lymphatic drainage channels enhances removal of fluids and other
materials that collect in an injured area. It can also be applied not only to sports injuries, but also to
post-surgical recovery and other inflammatory conditions, including lymphedema (severe swelling
of the extremities).

Accelerated Recovery from Bruises and Contusions

One of the most dramatic effects of NYG KT is the removal of blood that accumulates under the
skin due to bruising. It is applied in a pattern over the bruised area and the bruising is dissipated via
the same lifting mechanism described above. Within a couple of days a distinct pattern can be seen
where the tape was applied over a bruised area.

Prevents and/or Relieves Muscle Spasms and Cramping

NYG KT enhances circulation, improves delivery of oxygen and nutrients to overused or fatigued
muscles, helping to prevent or relieve spasms and cramps.

Speedy Recovery of Overused Muscles

Fatigued, overused muscles contain byproducts of exercise (such as lactic acid) that contribute to
pain and stiffness and limit the ability to continue exercising. When NYG KT is used over these
areas, enhanced removal of these by products allows for more rapid recovery. Combined with
improved delivery of oxygen via enhanced blood flow, this could translate into improved
performance in an endurance event or more complete recovery between repetitive, high intensity
events.

Supports Injured Muscles and Joints without Restricting Range of Motion

The unique elastic properties and application techniques of NYG KT allow it to provide support to
injured muscles or joints without restricting range of  motion.

Allows Athletes to Remain Active while Injured

This is one of the most important benefits of NYG KT for competitive athletes. Depending on how
it is applied, NYG KT can prevent either over-stretching or over-contraction of injured muscles.
When combined with its pain relieving and anti-inflammatory properties, this can allow athletes to
continue training and/or competing as their injuries heal.

Enhances Strength and Muscle Tone in Weak or Poorly Toned Muscles

Certain neurological or muscular disorders can make muscles so weak that it is almost impossible to
do the exercises that are critical to improve daily functioning. NYG KT not only provides support to
these muscles, but it can also improve muscle activation, allowing therapeutic exercises to be
carried out more effectively. One of the major uses in this category is with infants and young
children with hypotonia, poor muscle tone that limits their ability to learn to sit up, crawl, etc. A
simple application of NYG KT can improve posture and assist in mobility.

How to Apply NYG KT

NYG KT is water resistant, yet breathable, allowing it to be worn for exercise, showering, or
swimming. It dries quickly and seldom causes skin irritation. When properly applied, most NYG
KT applications will last from 3-5 days. If you follow these tips on how to apply kinesiology tape,
you will get the most benefit from each application.

Preparing the Skin

Skin should be completely dry and free of any lotions or oils. Wipe the entire area with rubbing
alcohol, hand sanitiser or a pre-taping product like RockSauce. Apply tape at least 1 hour before
sweating, swimming or showering. If applying after exercise, ensure that perspiration has
completely stopped before applying tape.
Small amounts of body hair will not interfere with the effectiveness or adhesion of the NYG KT.
Areas with significant amounts of hair should be clipped close to the skin for best results and for
less pain when tape is removed.

Preparing and Applying the Tape

NYG KT can only be applied once, so avoid touching the adhesive side of the tape. To avoid skin
irritation, the ends of each strip should be applied with no stretch. Make sure all ends are applied to
skin, not to other pieces of tape. After applying, rub tape briskly from the centre to the ends, to
activate the adhesive. Do not rub from the ends toward the centre, or you may cause the ends to peel
away from the skin.
Cut NYG KT with sharp scissors, being sure to round all corners to prevent ends from peeling
prematurely. Tear the backing 2-3 inches from one end to create an ‘anchor’ from the first part that
will be applied. Apply the anchor end with no stretch in the tape, leaving the rest of the backing
intact. Continue peeling the backing away in small segments as you apply the tape. Removing too
much backing at one time can result in tape sticking to itself, and ruining the application.

Wearing the Tape

Try to keep clothing or equipment from rubbing on the ends of the NYG KT. To dry tape that has
become wet, pat gently with a towel. Do not use a hair dryer as the adhesive is heat-activated, and
may become difficult to remove. Any ends that begin to peel can be trimmed with scissors to
prevent further peeling.

Precautions
Do not apply NYG KT on any skin surface that is damaged which includes scrapes, cuts, burns,
sunburn or any type of rash or irritation. Individuals with sensitive skin should apply a test piece for
up to 24 hours before a full taping. If skin irritation occurs, remove tape immediately.
Do not overstretch the tape, especially at the ends. When the ends of the tape are applied to the skin
with stretch, they can pull on the skin and cause rashes or even blistering.

Dealing with Skin Irritation

NYG KT is made from cotton with a hypoallergenic acrylic adhesive. It contains no latex or
medications, decreasing the likelihood of skin irritation. Individuals with extremely sensitive skin,
however, may still experience rash, itching or irritation.

Removing the Tape

Remove NYG KT in the direction of hair growth, which is usually away from the centre of the body
on the trunk, and in a downward direction on the arms or legs. To minimise discomfort, press the
skin at the end of the taped area while gently peeling tape back. Tape that is still strongly adhered to
skin may be loosened by soaking with baby oil, vegetable oil or perform-lift adhesive remover for
5-10 minutes before removing.

If NYG KT Won’t Stick

Check that all skin and tape preparation and application guidelines above were followed. It can be
difficult to get tape to stick well on areas that sweat heavily, like the soles of the feet. Areas that are
rubbed by clothing or equipment, or receive repeated body contact are also hard to get tape to stick
to, despite the best precautions. In these cases, an adhesive spray can be used to help NYG KT
stick. Spray lightly where NYG KT will end, wait until area is tacky, then apply tape.
NYG KT comes in a variety of colours, providing options for all body sizes, skin types and injuries
or health conditions. If you are new to taping, take a few minutes to read, so you can apply the tape
easily.
