SportStrap’s new Kinesiology Tape is out today and our Kinesiology customers are happy campers!
Normally we reserve this space on our blog to teach sports medical techniques, to help prevent or recover from injuries, but today I’ve got some rather exciting news to share.
Since the 2008 Beijing Olympics, Kinesiology taping therapy has become one of the fastest growing injury and pain reliefs treatments in Australia.
But after speaking with some Kinesiology users recently, the most common feedback is that the cost of premium Kinesiology Tape in Australia is one of the biggest draw backs.
Sure, its a must to use premium quality tape, but paying $20+ a roll, or $15+ for a precut is just plain…
Wrong…
WRoong…
WRRONNG!
So we decided to be like men on a mission, to introduce one of the best premium grade kinesiology tape on the market, that kinesio tape users can get their hands on, and keep money in their pocket.
Hence Dr K Kinesiology Tape was born.
SportStrap have now launched 10 new Kinesiology Tape products, and for all SportStrap customers we are exclusively offering
