Shoulder saver July 26, 2010 Jeremy Johnson (SALT LAKE CITY, UT USA) After 2 shoulder surgeries, a brilliant physical therapist put Leukotape on my shoulder, which did more to relieve the pressure than anything else. Now I just apply it myself and can keep training.
Close to what I need for Plantar Fasciitis, but not quite July 2, 2010 jif101 (Oak Hill, VA USA) This item includes Leukotape P, which measures 1.5in wide, and a Cover-Roll stretch, which is 2in wide. The Leukotape P is the same material that my podiatrist sold me recently. It's similar to a flexible band-aid material (and is sticky on one side). The Cover-Roll stretch is also sticky on one side, but is more of a strong gauze feel - I'm concerned what the arch support will be like and will update once I've tried it. I was actually hoping for one package to be 1in wide and the other package to be 3in wide, but this will do for now.
UPDATE: I tried this for about a week. The up side is that the Cover-Roll isn't sticky and didn't collect fuzzies from the floor as I walked, unlike the other medical tape I've tried. The downside is that it does NOT give me enough arch support. The Cover-Roll allows too much of a stretch, which allows my arch to still collapse. Not a good combo pack for arch support. The 1.5in wide Leukotape P was still usable, but wider than I would like. I could in theory use just the one tape for the sides and bottom, which is what I may do to use at least that one roll.
For other medical issues that don't require putting weight on the tape, I'd say go for the combo pack. The stretchy Cover-Roll will give you the range of motion you need for joint-related issues.
Back to the drawing board for me.
Dont order, never received this product July 1, 2010 BMD This supplier does not seem to be in existance. I ordered for this product in May 2010. Never received this product nor received any response from them
Shin Splint Savior May 17, 2010 Health tchr I had debilitating shin splints and was in the middle of my training sessions for 10 races in 10 weeks. A physical therapist used this pre-tape and tape to tape my shins and what a difference!!!!!!!!!! This tape is as close to a miracle as anything can be. I have a tape allergy, but this tape doesn't seem to bother me. I think the recommendation is to leave it on for 5 days, but I leave it on about 2 1/2-3 days since I'm super sensitive to the adhesive. I've never had a problem. The tape has allowed my shins to recover and I can return to my training pain free!! Have someone qualified to show you how to use this tape and then enjoy the benefits of doing it yourself at home!
Item pictured is not the one I received. April 8, 2010 Karen (DUMFRIES, Vatican City State (Holy See)) 0 out of 1 found this review helpful
I wanted to save time and get the tape for a sports injury. I was disappointed when I received the wrong product. Now I have to order the other tape. :(
