About the Ministry
The Ministry that tells the truth about tape
We sell tape and training gear — and write honestly about what it can and can't do.
We write based on research
We rely on Cochrane, JOSPT, and BMJ. Even when the effect is small, that's what we write — no “cures in three days.”
We recommend what works
For the ankle, elbow, and foot, we honestly recommend rigid tape, even though kinesiology tape costs more.
We provide a protocol
Every zone includes body position, strip shape, length, and stretch percentage. Not just “stick it where it hurts.”
Tape is support, not treatment
A BMJ Evidence-Based Medicine review (2026) shows a small, short-lived reduction in pain. Tape will not heal a ligament and will not replace a doctor — but it can ease the load while you recover.
How we choose our products
Verified manufacturers
We work with factories that provide certificates for adhesive and fabric. We won't stock counterfeits, even cheap ones.
We test on ourselves
We test every new batch ourselves: does it hold for five days, does it leave marks, does it make the skin itch.
Two price lines
Economy — for trying it out. Professional — when you need tape daily and it has to last longer.
Who we are
A small team that answers Reception messages themselves
Sole proprietor (FOP) Semenenko O.V. · Kyiv. We write the articles, pack the orders and answer questions — no call center, no scripts.
Have a question?
Reception is open Mon–Sat 9 AM–8 PM. We will suggest the width and the protocol for free.
