This safe me from surgery and now I am walking without problems. And without pain, . Super thank you

[rrand]

Thanks for posting this video really helped my knee pain. I tried taping at 90 degrees like I'd seen on other videos but I just didn't get the pain relief that your instructions provided. Thanks again!

[vikkituck]

I have been using this technique for my own dx he's talking about and I've been able to get out of bed and walk for several hours without limping to favor the extreme pain and discomfort. I've tried both the Walmart equate brand and KT tape and I see no difference except price. Today, the KT tape came off quicker that the Equate brand while out in my yard, doing chores in water

[ritaunderwood]

I do this exact taping showed to me in physical therapy and I can feel the difference in my knee

[paganskier]

Thank you for this. I have struggled with tendinitis ever since I had partial knee replacement. After taping per the video I skied double blacks today with reduced pain.

[rodneyclausell]

I have arthritis in my knee and the tape really helps relieve the pain before it gets too bad.

[ronaldwilliford]

Kinesiology Tape really helps me with knee pain, also provides much more movement with less pain, a wonderful thing!

[caliclassy]

This video is old but I just want to say this really help, thanks bro🙏

[dramuah]

I'm only 18 but work a hard laboring physical job and my ankles feel dead. Using this tape has helped alot and my feet dont hurt as bad even after standing for 10 hour shifts

[jiwooswig]

I have Runner's knee and this helped a lot I could actually run and jump without it affecting my me It was setting me back on meets but once I had it on I mange to actually improve myself alot

Hi JG!
you are a great doc
and so cooperative
Not much people reply each and every question like you
Great job

[TylerRayPittman]

Wow, my knee is actually tracking properly. Thank you

[rubyogden]

Great video, simple, easy to follow instructions

[Tzippi]

Thank you. This works very well. Some yard at the dojo did not tell me to rotate and I have knee pain. I have been free of pain for over a year, and one knucklehead. 😅

How often do you change the tape? Do you only use it when having high movement activity or should it be used all the time. I’m a vet tech and I’m always moving in my job and would like to give some additional support to my knees since they sometimes get hurt and can feel sore.

[williamsawyer]

Cool video never know nothing about the tape but I'm going to try that

[faisalalmutairii]

can i use the same application for chondromalacia? i use a knee bracelet all the time and it works fine but I want to try kinesiology tapes. thanks

[ChrissieL]

Thank you for this video!
I have knee pain for the past 7 months. I recently found out that my knee cap is slightly tilted and that's what causing the inflammation and the pain. Will taping the knee during the day, combined with physiotherapy, help reduce the pain and the knee cap grinding on the bone?

[reverseside]

My partner's physio said they were taping up to lift the kneecap, I've bought some k tape to reapply their taping...how do we need to tweak your video to do this? Thanks for the video, really helpful.

[andersonfamily]

Have arthritis and major pain in my MCL. Ortho gave me a knee brace but it doesn't stay up so I was thinking tape instead.. will this taping work on MCL 😊
