1. The product
The 6 D-tape is equipped with the hypoallergenic STRATAGEL adhesive from the Japanese company Nitto Denko, which is also used in the particularly skin-friendly
K-Active Tape Gentle is used. On the surface there are "activation pads" at regular intervals. With the help of these pads, the tissues lying under the tape can be activated in six
Dimensions: up, down and along the x, y and z axes; rotary movements can also be performed.
2. Objectives of the application
Especially the lifting of skin, fasciae and underlying tissues should loosen adhesions and improve the flexibility of collagen structures. This is achieved by the process of
"Thixotropy": In this phenomenon, often caused by activity in the body, gels liquefy under the influence of shear stress (comparable to stirring or
Shaking), which results in an improved "perfusion" of the tissues and cells.
3. Possible effects
The described process not only supports the metabolism and the flow of fluid between the cells, it also has a positive effect on fascia, scar tissue, muscles
and joints as well as on the lymphatic system and blood circulation.
The 6 D-tape has proven to be particularly effective when applied to swellings or lymph nodes. Ultrasound examinations have shown that the quantity and flow rate of the lymph increases and thus
the removal of slag and structural debris can be improved. The consequences can, among other things, be pain relief, volume reduction and a normalization of the structural condition
be.
4. Application possibilities
The 6 D-Tape can be used as a complementary therapy tool after injuries and operations, in cosmetics, for lymphatic problems and in cancer therapy. It can be used for further
Therapy measures for pain problems, movement restrictions and prophylaxis effectively support.
In addition, the tape is very well suited for self-treatment, as the patient or athlete himself can use the pads to "activate" the affected tissue and thus make the various
To stimulate bodily functions.

Patented 6D Technology
The unique feature of 6D Tape lies in its integrated activation pads on the surface. These enable targeted mechanical mobilization of the tissue in six dimensions—through lifting, shifting, and rotational impulses along multiple axes. While conventional kinesiology tapes typically work in only one or two directions, this tape allows for significantly deeper and more controlled stimulation of the skin, fascia, and underlying tissue. This can enhance the glide between tissue layers and actively support interstitial fluid exchange (the movement of fluid within tissue that nourishes cells and helps reduce swelling).
The 6D Tape is made from an elastic base material consisting of 98% cotton. It is breathable, water-resistant, and comfortable to wear on the skin. The high-quality, hypoallergenic adhesive from Japanese manufacturer Nitto Denko ensures reliable adhesion while remaining gentle on the skin. The non-elastic activation pads enable precise mechanical stimulation, making the tape especially effective in use.
Support for Swelling, Scarring, and Fascial Adhesions
Ultrasound studies suggest that activation through 6D Tape may promote dilation of the lymphatic vessels. This can facilitate the uptake and transport of interstitial fluid as well as other lymphatic substances, potentially increasing flow velocity. As a result, it may support the reduction of edema and postoperative swelling.
In addition, the mechanical stimulation provided by the activation pads can enhance tissue metabolism and microcirculation. The multidimensional mobilization of the skin and subcutaneous tissue may help release fascial adhesions, regulate tissue tension, and improve the glide and elasticity of the fascia.
Overall, 6D Tape supports functional processes throughout the entire tissue network.
From Lymphatic Therapy to Sports Medicine
6D Tape is a versatile therapeutic tool used across a wide range of medical and sports therapy applications. It is particularly effective for managing swelling and edema following injuries or surgery, as well as for lymphatic drainage disorders and scar treatment. It also provides valuable support for fascial issues, restricted mobility, and overuse-related conditions.
Common clinical applications include postoperative edema, swelling after sports injuries, and scarring following breast cancer surgery. Additionally, 6D Tape is highly effective in the treatment of golfer’s elbow and tennis elbow. Thanks to the integrated activation pads, treatment can be continued independently between therapy sessions—helping to extend and sustain the therapeutic benefits over time.

It contains instructions and pre-cut strips of 6D Tape for two 3-to-10-day treatments. Knee osteoarthritis, pain and swelling Knee osteoarthritis is a painful, non-inflammatory and degenerative condition of the knee joint caused by wear and tear and deterioration of the joint cartilage. It is a major cause of serious disability for many people and can make it difficult to carry out many everyday activities such as walking or climbing stairs. Overexertion at work or sport is a common cause of knee osteoarthritis, inflammation, pain and swelling. These knee symptoms can also be caused by trauma or surgery. The quicker the swelling is reduced, the quicker the pain is generally relieved, and healing takes place.

Tennis elbow is also known by the technical term "epicondylitis humeri lateralis". Golfer's elbow is a similar condition on the inside of the elbow. The pain can extend into the forearm. In some circumstances, the ability to grip may also be weakened. Such repetitive strain irritation can be caused by activities in various work environments.Six-dimensional tissue mobilisation with 6D TapeThe 6D Tape activation pads are designed to help the user mobilise the tissues in 6 directions The six dimensions are the front, side and upward directions or the x, y and z axis directions and the rotations around each axis.
