A RockTape class action claims that the kinesiology tape does not provide the pain relief that is advertised by the manufacturer.
Kinesiology tape is unique from other types of athletic tape which are wrapped around the body because it is pre-stretched and then stuck over the affected area. The idea of kinesiology tape reportedly originated from a Japanese chiropractor in the 1970s. Although the practice has gained popularity, a recent kinesiology tape class action claims that the idea is “lacking in substance or merit.” According to the RockTape kinesiology tape class action, “the scientific community that has studied kinesio tape has come to the conclusion that it does not treat injuries, improve or enhance athletic performance, reduce or delay fatigue, or provide relief from pain, nor does it do so any better than conventional sports tape.” Ring of Fire’s Farron Cousins discusses this with Scott Hardy, President of Top Class Actions.
