Description
Product Info
Pharma-KT is thin, lengthways elastic, lightweight, color coded, and comfortable to wear adhesive fabric tapes, providing external support that helps muscles, ligaments, and tendons to remain active while recovering from injuries.
High quality extensible fabric made of cotton and lycra.
Pattern coated adhesive allowing the skin to breathe.
Thin fabric conformable to body contours.
Water repellant fabric.
Latex free adhesive.
Provides firm but controlled support for muscles, tendons and ligaments.
Porous adhesive allows sweat to evaporate reducing skin maceration.
Soft edges prevent the bandage from wrinkling or marking the skin.
It provides uni-directional elasticity, allowing the tape to stretch in length but preventing the tape from stretching in width, providing stable support without restricting motion.
Pharma-KT can be worn for up to five days during intense exercise, swimming, showering and bathing as the tape is quick drying.
• Pharma-KT is used to reduce downtime from injury, reduce swelling and muscle fatigue, support muscles and relieve pain.
• Pharma-KT can be used for shoulders, backs, arms, hamstring and calf muscle groups.
• Pharma-KT can also be used as an athletic preventative-injury method and as a support method.
• Pharma-KT is used as a protective layer to protect skin against friction and blistering.
1. Do not use on open wound, broken or irritated skin.
2. If you are diabetic, pregnant, have poor circulation, nerve damage, a skin condition or allergy to adhesives, seek medical advice before use.
3. Test small area of skin for sensitivity, discontinue use if tape becomes uncomfortable or skin sensitivity occurs.
4. Seek medical advice if the condition is severe or does not improve within 5 days.
5. For single use only – for each application use new tape to retain the required benefits.
6. Store in cool dry place, avoid direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.
7. Keep out of reach of children.
8. Use by expiry date shown on the package.
9. For external use only.
1- Lifts the upper layers of skin:
Pharma-KT lifts the upper layers of skin creating more space between the skin and underlying muscles. This space is believed to reduce pressure on the lymph channels and create more space for circulation, flow and improve lymph drainage through the taped area This can help decrease swelling and pain in injured areas. It also helps improve blood flow circulation, which assists with repair of damaged tissues and accelerates the breakdown and removal of waste product when muscles are tired.
2- Decreases pain:
Pharma-KT relieves physical and neurological pain, the tape’s lifting action helps to relieve pressure on the pain receptors located under the skin.
3- Provides muscle /joint support:
Pharma-KT unique elastic properties ensure that muscles and joints are closely supported during all activities and discourage harmful movements whilst still allowing a safe and healthy range of motion. Different applications of pharma-KT can also be used to improve joint alignment and can improve the function of a joint by influencing opposing muscle groups and joint mobility.

How Does it work?1- Lifts the upper layers of skin:

Indications- Pharma-KT can be used for hundreds of common injuries like:
1- Muscular facilitation. 2- Lower back pain/strain.
3- Groin injury. 4- Hamstring.
5- Knee pain. 6- Rotator cuff injury.
7- Whiplash. 8- Tennis elbow.
9- Patella tracking. 10- Pre and post-surgical edema.
11- Ankle sprains. 12- Achilles tendon.
13- Shin splints. 14- Carpal tunnel syndrome.
Precautions when applying- Make sure the skin is clean and dry, free from lotions/oils.
- If applying tape on a joint, be sure the joint is in a fully bent position. If the tape is applied over a knee or elbow in an extended position, the tape will pull off when the joint moves.
- Never stretch the first or the last of the tape on either end. The tape on the ends should be applied directly to the skin without stretching; otherwise it will pull up and will not stick.
- Be sure to set the adhesive by firmly rubbing the tape and make sure all the edges are down. For best results apply the tape 30 minutes before athletic activity.
- How to cut Pharma-KT: A) I STRIP:(1) 1. Measure your tape. 2. Fold tape in half to round both ends at the same time.
B) Y STRIP:(2) 1. Cut an I STRIP. 2. Cut your I STRIP in half vertically, leaving a tab of about 10cm at the end. 3. Round the edges.
C) LYMPH FAN:(3) 1. Cut each tail of your Y STRIP in half again vertically, so that you have 4 tails. 2. Round the edge.
– How to apply:
A) NEUTRAL: 1. Stretch the muscle, not the tape. 2. Rip the backing paper at both ends. 3. Lay one anchor down before laying the rest of the tape with 0% stretch.
B) STRETCH:(4) 1. Rip the backing paper at both ends. 2. Remove the center section. 3. Use the tabs at each end to stretch the center of the tape and apply over a point of pain.
– How to remove:(5)
1. Remove the tape by stretching the skin underneath.
2. Peel the tape with the direction of any hair.
– Tips for application:
1. Make sure the skin is clean and dry, free from lotions/oils.
2. Shaving before applying is not necessary, however it unquestionably helps with adhesion and it’s recommended for more intensive exercise. If you prefer, we recommend
that you trim the hair down rather than a clean shave.
3. Round the edges to prevent fraying or catching on clothes.
4. If applying tape on a joint, be sure the joint is in a fully bent position. If the tape is applied over a knee or elbow in an extended position, the tape will pull off when the joint moves.
5. Never stretch the first or the last of the tape on either end. The tape on the ends should be applied directly to the skin without stretching; otherwise it will pull up and will
not stick.
6. If the tape is stretched too much it can cause irritation & the anchors must be laid with 0% stretch
7. Often the point of pain isn’t the root of the cause. To get the best results ask a trained professional to assist.
8. Be sure to apply the adhesive by firmly rubbing the tape onto the skin and make sure all the edges are down. For best results apply the tape 30 minutes before athletic
activity.(6)
9. Pharma-KT can remain on the skin for a number of days since it is water resistant. The length of time will vary depending on the area of application and usage. For example,
applying to the feet may only last 1-2 days (more wear and tear), whilst the postural area could last 5 days.
