When done, my husband says that it's extremely supportive and comfortable. The white tape is very soft and comfortable and provides a good base for the pinkish tape.

Rather annoyingly, there is still half a roll of the pink tape left so we have had to buy more of the white tape. After consulting Dr Google and seeing good results with people taping up their injuries, he spoke to a physio who agreed it would help. The pink tape is very strong and hard to tear but cuts easily with normal scissors.

To take the strapping off, I strongly advise soaking it in the shower or you will remove skin -be warned! My husband dislocated the AC joint in his shoulder. The physio showed him how best to tape it up to support the joint and hold it in place while the muscle etc heals. We started taping the injury every other day from 26th June and the white tape ran out yesterday (22nd July).

Then the pink tape is applied over the top, except you apply quite a lot of pressure, pulling it as tight as you can. The white tape is also easy to cut and has a paper backing to it which is easy to remove.

In all, it's done a really good job of supporting the shoulder so would recommend it if you consult someone who knows how to apply it. We bought this tape after it was recommended by a physiotherapist. Then 3 more steps were added in a sort of star formation over and around the dislocated joint.

We applied one strip along the shoulder from the neck down to the top of the arm.
