Information
General information about the wrist
The wrist is a complex and central joint of the human body that connects the hand to the forearm. It consists of eight small bones arranged in two rows, and allows a wide range of motion such as bending, stretching, turning and lateral movements of the hand. This freedom of movement is essential for everyday activities such as grasping, lifting and writing. The wrist is stabilized by strong ligaments and muscles that ensure the mobility and resilience of the joint.

How does K-Active Tape help with wrist pain?
The K-Active Tape provides targeted support for wrist pain by stabilizing and relieving the affected area. Due to its elastic properties, the tape adapts to the movements of the wrist without restricting the freedom of movement. This supports the muscles and reduces the strain on the joint. The gentle lifting of the skin by the tape improves blood circulation and lymphatic flow, reducing swelling and inflammation. At the same time, the tape stimulates the sensory receptors, reducing the perception of pain.
