Leukotape® P is a high-strength, rigid strapping tape designed for orthopedic and sports injury applications. It features a robust zinc oxide adhesive that ensures secure and durable fixation, making it ideal for supporting and stabilizing injured joints, ligaments, and tendons. This tape is particularly effective for patellofemoral (McConnell) taping techniques, as well as for treating chronic shoulder injuries and retraining muscles.
Key Features:
- High Tensile Strength: Leukotape® P offers excellent support and stability due to its high tensile strength, making it suitable for high-impact activities and contact sports.
- Zinc Oxide Adhesive: The strong adhesive properties ensure the tape stays in place, providing reliable support and preventing further injury.
- Hand-Tearable: The tape is easy to use and can be torn by hand, allowing for quick application without the need for scissors.
- Rayon-Backed: The rayon fabric backing is both porous and breathable, ensuring comfort and reducing the risk of skin irritation.
- Versatile Application: Suitable for taping various joints, including knees, ankles, shoulders, and elbows, to restrict movement and aid in recovery.
- Non-Sterile: Designed for external use, the tape is non-sterile and should be applied over clean, dry skin or a protective underwrap like Cover Roll Stretch for sensitive skin.
Ideal Uses:
- Patellofemoral Taping: Often used in McConnell taping techniques to alleviate knee pain and improve patellar tracking.
- Injury Prevention and Recovery: Provides support and stability to prevent further injury and aid in the recovery of sprains and strains.
- Muscle Retraining: Helps in muscle retraining and correction of posture and alignment issues.
Leukotape® P is available in a beige color, making it less conspicuous when worn. It is sold in individual rolls or in bulk for larger needs, such as athletic training facilities or physical therapy clinics.
