Behind the Brand

• After a bad ski accident, Founder Ray Arbesman was treated with kinesiology tape. He watched his physiotherapist spend time cutting patterns and never applying the tape the same way twice
• This got him thinking-how can we save time and maintain consistency in taping? With this thought, SpiderTech was born
• With 18 body-specific pre-cut designs and 3 universal pre-cut shapes, SpiderTech makes kinesiology taping an easy and affordable treatment in muscle recovery and pain management

Consumer Trends

• Consumer search trends for "kinesiology tape" have risen 122% over the last five years
• Kinesiology for esthetic use is gaining traction, giving you a valuable opportunity to capitalize on the rising "face-taping" trend
• However you choose to use kinesiology tape, your customers are likely to be interested and ready to engage with it

Drug-Free Relief

• When kinesiology tape is applied to swollen or bruised areas, it lifts the skin to create space between the skin's top layer and the underlying tissues, encouraging blood and lymphatic flow to promote healing
• The extra space created by kinesiology tape also helps to alleviate pressure on pain receptors at the injured site, and as a result, mitigates pain and tension in patients
• Also provides extra support to the applied area while allowing a full range of motion to help prevent re-injury

Easy Application. SNAP, STICK, GO!

• Body part-specific pieces use a numbered system to help all users of the tapes - from experts to novices - easily apply their tape and ensure they get the application technique correct for maximum effectiveness
• Each section of the tape design allows application without touching the adhesive to ensure a long-lasting tape job
• Perfect to send home with your guests to maximize results in-between treatments
