Long used by athletic trainers and physical therapists, taping methods are widely favored by those looking to reduce discomfort caused by injury and provide support to weakened areas. In an effort to bring these professional tactics to the everyday athlete, DICK's will be amping up the women's apparel section with an array of TheraBand^® and Cramer^® products. From flexible Kinesiology Tape and easy-to-use Self Stick Tape to lightweight Underwrap, Performance Health provides effective solutions for every need.

Designed to stretch with and support muscles, while also relieving pain, the stylish array of patterned TheraBand^® Kinesiology Tape features breakthrough XactStretch™ visual guides and best-in-class adhesive for confident application every time. Enabling an active range of movement, colorful Cramer^® Self Stick Tape allows active people at every level to quickly and easily apply tape right where it's needed. Created to protect the skin from harsh adhesives and prevent chafing, Cramer^®Tape Underwrap is made from a latex-free and allergy-safe foam. Its seemingly endless variety of uses range from affixing cold packs in place to holding back the hair of athletes—using team colors or personal style. A combination of compression and comfort, this vibrant, lightweight wrap can be paired with tapes or worn on its own.

These Performance Health products, which will launch in all DICK's locations nationwide, can be found in freestanding displays throughout the women's apparel section. To help keep men in the game, a variety of discreet, yet effective, color options will also be available. For a store nearest you visit: www.dickssportinggoods.com.
