Product Description

CrossLinq Acupressure Cross Patches (Crosstape) are non-elastic, grid-shaped tapes that are produced in in South Korea. CrossLinq has a skin-friendly acrylic adhesive layer. These tapes are mainly used on (local) pain points, trigger points and acupuncture points. When applying to pain points you can easily apply the CrossLinq yourself, however, application to trigger points and acupuncture points requires specific knowledge.

CrossLinq Patches are also electrostatically charged. These grid-shaped tapes are on release paper with a specific coating. As soon as the CrossLinq is removed from the release paper, it is electrostatically charged. In case of illness or other ailments, the positive and negative charge of our body is not in balance. As soon as the CrossLinq is applied in the right place, it brings the body back into balance via the skin and receptors, which reduces complaints and pain.

Cross Taping originated in Asia. A skin-friendly therapy treatment method utilizing gridded band-aid-like patches that are used for treating, inter alia, trigger points, pain points, acupuncture points and for stimulating meridians (energy pathways in the body). The purpose of the treatment, as with all energy treatment techniques (such as acupuncture and acupressure) is to assist the energy to flow again undisturbed and thereby stimulate the body's self-healing mechanism. In many cases, patients express an immediate improvement in mobility and a marked reduction in pain at the application site after adhering a CrossLinq patch.

The skin is a complex organ with thousands of receptors. This means that we do not only signal what is happening outside the body; cold, heat, pressure, but also what happens inside; stress, nervousness, anxiety. The skin reacts visibly through redness, goosebumps, sweating, etc. The skin is able to, by means of the receptors deep in the body, trigger a response.

Injuries, pain and trigger points disrupt body homeostasis and cause tissue stress. Blocked energy pathways create ‘dams’ of strongly charged pockets of energy. To locate one of these ‘dams’ of blocked or stored energy the therapist need only gently drag the CrossLinq patch above the affected area of skin where an electrical potential difference is present. The CrossLinq patch reacts by being automatically drawn downward to the skins surface. The CrossLinq patch once placed on the skin will absorb the electrical charge from the skin simultaneously eliminating the potential difference allowing the treated area to begin the process of self-healing.

Application Instructions

  1. For the best effect, and to make the CrossLinq easy to apply, we recommend using plastic tweezers or a wooden skewer, so that the CrossLinq does not come into contact with the fingers.
  2. Scan the affected area with the CrossLinq on the tweezers, you will notice that the CrossLinq bends to the skin area that is positively charged.
  3. Apply the CrossLinq there, preferably diagonally.
* Multiple cases may be shipped per package in order to minimize the charge for shipping.

Question & Answers

User Reviews

Made in the USA
hot melt rubber (synthetic)
Offers the widest range of application flexibility available. Exhibits excellent processing performance whether manually or automatically applied. Has superior tensile strength, adhesion properties and holding force which ensures consistent, reliable seals. Hot melt adhesive will bond faster to a surface which is referred to as quick-grab or quick-stick. It typically has higher tack (will feel stickier to the touch), but is also softer. It has lower heat resistance, shear resistance, and sometimes UV resistance than an acrylic adhesive. NOTE: it is called hot melt because the adhesive is applied hot by the manufacturer and then hardens as it cools (you do not need to apply heat to the tape yourself).
natural rubber
Properties are similar to that of hot melt rubber, but natural rubber often holds where other adhesives won't (recycled fibers, dust, cold, heat and heavy loads). It provides good overall adhesion and moisture resistance.
acrylic
Offer excellent performance, especially for applications in temperatures less than 40°F and greater then 120°F. It provides excellent clarity, has high shear strength, is usually more permanent/durable even when exposed to moisture, and it ages well over extended periods in fluorescent and sunlight. Since it remains clear for the life of the application and does not yellow over time it is ideal for applications such as sealing white cartons. While it has good initial adhesion it does take 24-48 hours to cure and to achieve its maximum bond strength (has gradual adhesion buildup). Another difference between hot melt rubber and acrylic adhesive is if you fold tape over making the two adhesive sides touch the acrylic adhesive will remain attached to the carrier (e.g. paper, film) while a hot melt adhesive will stick to itself and pull off of the carrier. It is the best choice for clarity, UV resistance and aging characteristics.
silicone
Is great for extreme temperature applications since silicone adhesive can work in continuous operating temperatures from -100°F to 500°F. They also exhibit good chemical resistance, retain electrical properties, and remove cleanly with little or no residue.
zinc oxide
Zinc oxide based adhesive formula is a skin-friendly adhesive which is commonly used on sports medicine tapes.
Thickness, AKA caliper or gauge, refers to the distance from one surface of a tape backing, or adhesive, to the other.
1 mil = 1/1000 of an inch
Examples: 1/16 inch = 62.5 mils; 1/32 inch = 31.25 mils
The cut level indicates how many grams of cutting load a glove can withstand from a sharp blade before being penetrated.
Lower gauge gloves are heavier - have thicker construction, fewer stiches knitted per inch and offer less dexterity.
Higher gauge gloves are lighter - have thinner/finer construction, more stitches knitted per inch and offer more dexterity.
Gloves offered typically runs from 7 to 18 (12 and 13 are in the middle of the scale).
