Different types of kinesiology tape for hand

Palm Tape With Holes

black-palm-tape-roll

Palm tape is the most common hand kinesiology tape. Its primary function is to protect the palms and finger pulps and prevent blisters and calluses on the palms during vigorous friction movements, such as hanging rings, weightlifting, kayaking, and other sports.

Palm tape is based on the traditional Y-shaped pre-cut tape strips with three additional holes. These holes make it easy for you to drill through with your fingers to secure the tape securely to your palm.

Its length is usually 24*7.5 cm (8.27*2.95 inch), which is suitable for most adults.

Finger tape is a pre-cut tape patch specially designed for fingers. The primary function of finger tape is to protect your fingers from abrasion and blisters.

Finger tape is widely used in bowling, mountaineering, basketball, football, and other sports. Compared with rigid finger tape, this finger tape is softer because it is elastic and does not restrict the movement of finger joints.

Our regular finger tape patch is 2.5cm*7.5cm (0.97inch*2.95inch), just enough to wrap around an adult’s finger.

Wrist Protection

The wrist is especially vulnerable to overuse injuries, as many activities demand repetitive motion or weight-bearing loads.

Kinesiology tape for the hand can reinforce this joint, reducing the strain that leads to conditions like carpal tunnel syndrome, tendinitis, and sprains. Taping provides external stabilization without restricting the range of motion.
