K-Active Crosstapes
Are you looking for a gentle alternative to manual trigger point massage or acupuncture without needles?
Then crosstapes are just the thing for you! They are a real highlight for anyone looking for a gentle but effective method of treating pain and healing scars.
Crosstapes: The somewhat different tapes
According to therapeutic reports, crosstapes restore harmony to the body's energy pathways through their electromagnetic charge. They create a permanent tissue stimulus due to their firm fit on the skin. During movement, this stimulus promotes local blood flow and acts like a spot massage. The improved energy flow can thus help the body to release local muscle tension and blockages.
What is the big advantage of crosstapes over acupuncture needles or manual trigger point massage?
Thanks to the long wearing time, crosstapes can develop their effect for much longer. Acupuncture needles only remain on the skin for 20-30 minutes. Manual trigger point massage is usually painful. Grid tapes can be applied completely painlessly.
Why crosstapes?
- Gentle pain treatment: Ideal for those who shy away from needles.
- Targeted application: Apply directly where it really counts.
- Natural therapy: Supports the body without the use of medication.
- For everyone: Whether at home, in the practice or in sport - Crosstapes are versatile.

Maximum comfort without compromise

The use of Crosstape and kinesiology tape
Crosstape can be applied individually or combined with other therapeutic measures. Both products, kinesiology tape and crosstape tape, can be used together in a therapy session without any problems. The main difference between the two tapes lies in their elasticity: Kinesiology tapes are modeled on the skin's ability to stretch, whereas crosstapes are completely inelastic. You should therefore think carefully beforehand about which technique you will use to combine the two tapes.
How do I use the K-Active Crosstapes?
1. carefully remove the tape from the special film (preferably with tweezers)
2. test in which direction the grid tape is attracted to the body
>3. apply the tape to the skin
4. run your fingers over the tape several more times to fix it properly And you've already applied the Crosstape!
The gentlest way to treat trigger points or scars
The K-Active Crosstapes can help you to relieve muscle tension and trigger points completely pain-free and improve the healing of your scars. The small mesh tapes can also be used to combat headaches, migraines or teeth grinding. It is even possible to relieve SIJ pain with a tape application on the temporomandibular joint. Don't compromise when treating your pain and rely on the dependable quality of K-Active.
