I’m about 4 weeks out from my first Marathon and just finished a long run with this taping technique! Huge improvement using this technique. I’m also working on stretching and strengthening, but for now this is extremely helpful.
Thanks for the comments and pleased it helps, regards JG
How can any Dr possibly say that this taping method for pain is a scam? 5 min after applying tape from watching this video... My knee was back in the right place and it didn't hurt to walk.... After spending 2 yrs searching for a brace.... Turns out tape was the answer... Thank you for your videos.
Thanks for the message and I to also believe the tape can help, regards JG
Thank you for this video and many others. It has helped me stay active despite shinsplints, runner's knee, and back pain. Been an amazing resource
Thanks very much. Using the tape in this way has really helped me start to get back to running pain free. I'm not quite there but this is definately helping. As you say. Taping doesnt solve a sore knee...that needs the physio and foam rolling and stretching. But this technique on taping means you can run as part of your rehab. Thanks again for uploading
Glad it helped! Regards JG
Can’t believe I never heard of the rubbing with the back of the tape trick til now, I’d always try to do friction with my hands but this was so much more effective! Thank you!
Happy to help! Regards jG
Hi John, we are hikers and we have been following you for tears now. I also bought your book. Any change I get I share your video on the Camino we walk. Lots of people are helped with it. 👍👍
That's great, regards JG
This one is yet the best because it gave a medium support and didn't really push the patella all the way up.. It gives me comfort.. Thank u all the way from Malaysia 💖
Glad it was helpful! Thanks Princess..regards JG
Little late to this. I’ve had bad runners knee for a good 2 weeks now ever since I started running again. Haven’t ran in 2 years and I guess my body, especially knees, started to hurt whenever I would run. It was like something was stabbing my lower knee and it would go away after my body was warmed up. I’m going to be buying tape later on today in hopes it’ll help me since my knee braces aren’t helping at all in my opinion. Gonna get a rad sun tan
I've been dealing with Patellofemoral Pain for 6 months with very little relief from braces, nsaids etc. This taping technique brought immediate relief. Thanks so much for taking the time to make it.
Pleased the technique helped reduce your knee pain, regards JG
Did you have continuous pain in the knee ??
this has been a saviour john
Cheers from malaysia
megadisc1982 glad it helped and sorry for the delay! 😊
This gave me immediate relief! Thank you!!!
I'm so glad! Regards JG
Thanks for the video John , this helped me recover after a long run and helped ease the pain a lot plus with icing . Greetings from Malaysia
Glad it helped! Greetings form Oxford, regards JG
Thanks @john Gibbons -- looking forward to trying this out this technique on my injured knee. Great video.
Thanks a million for comments and this is one of my older videos, regards JG
I will try this. My knee had an alignment problem before, but it worked without pain. I would sometimes have to push what felt like cartridge back under knee if my quads were too loose. A month ago. I had to quickly jump off a hoverboard and felt a jolt in my knee. I recently began exercising, light extensions, lighter leg press, and leg curls using Life fitness commercial equipment. My patellar grinds more, sways as I extend. If I had some way of holding it in place as I strengthen it, I believe it would pull right again. Thankfully, I don't have a great deal of pain, just more grinding as I extend. This may be a solution. Thanks
this one worked best for me
I had been using a similar technique, but application was inverted, starting on the quad and its a faff to get the stretch and placement correct. I am going to try your technique next go for cycling support. 🙏 THANK you.
Great, regards JG
Thank you so much, John.
You are very welcome, regards JG
Definitely trying this method next time
Thanks man 🙏
Thanks and pleased I could help - regards JG
Thank you so much - your videos are always the best!!
Kenisiology tape is great. Thanks for great instructions
Thanks for the message, regards JG
I have had an impact trauma to to top of my patella and also have previous rubbing and bruising around where my patella and femur meet, will this type of taping help stop some of that rubbing by keeping my patella away from the injured area and my femur? I am thinking if my patella stays a bit further down it will help with pain. what do you think?
Absolute lifesaver mate cheers
Thanks for the message, regards JG
Going to give it a try thanks!
Hope it helps, regards JG
@@JohnGibbons It did some what. I think my knees are just banged up from all the years bullriding. The wrecks too. Only 28 but I feel it now.😅
How does this differ in the kinetics from the one that used two I-strips down the sides, covering the MCL and LCL areas as well (patella strip first)?
My daughter had mpfl surgery over a year ago and her knee has starting feeling unstable and causing her pain again. I’m thinking about trying this for her. I actually wish we would’ve tried this before surgery. Do you think it’s a good idea to try taping it now or do you think she should even be experiencing pain and instability again?
I'm not quite clear on what you said while taping - is it zero stretch on either of the split tapes going around the patella?
No stretch as the stretch is form the knee in flexion - regards JG
Hi John ...I see your video is very helpfull... Did I need to exversise my legs to recover patela prb ? And how long recovere will go and depending on what? Thx a lot
Hard to comment without looking at you, regarding these type of problems with the knee, I try and focus on strengthening the Gluteal muscles as these help stabilise the knee joint. regards JG
Thank You! It was very helpful video.
Glad it was helpful! Regards JG
Thats exactly the technique ive learned. :) thanks :)
Great, hopefully the technique helps. regards JG

I have pain in my left side of the patella only in right knee .. I'm recovering from a arthroscopy doctor said I have chondromalacia and now start walking dyer 6 weeks and feel little pain while training thigh muscle and little while walking , should I tape it this way ? Or only one side ?
Thank you so much
Glad you like the video and happy new year to you. Regards JG
Thanks, this helped a lot
Rivoningo Chauke thanks and regards JG
Can I know why this technique is helpful for chondromelcia case ??
The tape stabilises the patella so the symptoms can reduce, regards JG
@@JohnGibbons but if the problem is related to a muscle that is weak than the other, do I still need this taping technique?
Im only 21 y
I i did a wrong jump my doctor dagnosed me with this in both kness
I'm Realy depressed i cant play soccer and run as i used to do because of the pain
Try and see someone like me if you can, regards JG
Greats video 👍
Thank you, regards JG
Brilliant Sir thank you. Much relief 🙏
Thanks, well derailed
Thanks, regards jG
I have just started having pain around my knee cap and towards the top of the knee cap. Would this be suitable for that? I do lots of rebounder exercise but as a child injured both knees. Only now some 30 years later that I'm getting pain again. Any suggestion's if there is another way to strap up both knees?
Its worth trying the technique to start with as sure it will help, I do have other 'knee' taping videos that you can slow try if this one doesn't work so well, good luck, Regards JG
I’m so confused! You said “don’t stretch” each time you applied the fingers? The only time you said to do a stretch was on the last piece of tape?
Charlotte O'Donnell you'll have figured this out by now, but the only sections you shouldn't stretch are the bits at each end of the tape (the reason being, the tape will quickly come unstuck if stretched at the ends).
I’m a football player that worries so much about my performances , I got my ligament injured I was asked by the doctor to wait for 100days, I just can’t,to me football is not just a sport it’s life. I started using knee pads but I realized they do compress my knees which results to more pains and I can’t even control well the ball. My knees also get knackered easily. I read about knee taping and I think it’s the right choice. My questions are after knee taping, can I play football? will taping enhance my knee strength and easiness? Thanks 🙏
It is better than compression but in the end you'll have to look for some treatment or in the long run your knees might be affected badly since kt tape is temporary solution not permanent
@@Rohan-st8lm ok thanks 🙏
hi sir, is it helped for patella dislocation ?
thank you !
The taping will help for patella dislocations, Regards JG
can you still run with the tape on or should you wait until its healed to run again
You can still run with tape on as will help, regards JG
Thanks for the video. Is it possible to go back running using this?
Taping will help but it won't fix the problem so be aware of that, regards JG
Got it thanks
Thanks, regards JG

No stretch as the stretch is coming from the knee in flexion, regards JG
