Cross Tape is Widely ApplicableDescription
CrossLinq® Medium Acupressure Patches are ultra-thin, grid-shaped adhesive patches designed for precise placement on acupuncture points, trigger points and other localised areas of the body.
Manufactured in South Korea and trusted by practitioners worldwide, CrossLinq patches provide gentle, continuous stimulation to the skin. They are commonly used in acupuncture, acupressure, trigger point therapy, sports recovery and general wellbeing routines.
Many users choose CrossLinq as a practical, needle-free alternative to traditional acupuncture. Once applied, the patches are discreet, comfortable to wear and can typically remain in place for several days while you continue with normal daily activities.
CrossLinq patches are often chosen by those looking for a convenient way to stimulate selected acupuncture or trigger points without the use of needles.
Why Choose Medium CrossLinq Patches?
Measuring 2.1 x 2.7 cm (0.83 x 1.06 in), Medium CrossLinq patches offer the ideal balance between precision and coverage.
They provide more coverage than Small CrossLinq patches whilst remaining precise enough for targeted placement. This makes Medium the most versatile size in the CrossLinq range and a popular choice for both practitioners and home users.
The Medium size is particularly suitable for areas where a little more coverage is beneficial, without moving up to the Large format.
Common Applications for Medium CrossLinq Patches
Medium CrossLinq patches are commonly used on:
- Neck tension and stiffness
- The shoulder blade region
- Lower back applications
- Wrists
- Forearms
- Ankles
- Calves
- Upper arms
- Chest and pectoral regions
- Acupuncture points
- Trigger points
- Sports recovery applications
- Areas of restricted movement
If Small patches feel too precise and Large patches provide more coverage than required, Medium CrossLinq patches are often the ideal choice.
How Can CrossLinq Support Your Routine?
Practitioners and customers use Medium CrossLinq patches across a wide variety of applications. Depending on the selected area and treatment approach, they are commonly incorporated into routines focused on:
- Trigger points and muscle tension
- Supporting mobility and flexibility
- Sports and recovery-focused routines
- Acupuncture and acupressure point stimulation
- Neck, shoulder and back applications
- Calf and lower-leg recovery routines
- Wrist and ankle applications
- Lymphatic applications
- Meridian-based techniques used in traditional acupuncture practice
How Does CrossLinq Work?
According to the CrossLinq method, the patches become electrostatically charged when removed from the backing paper. The skin contains thousands of receptors that continuously communicate with the body and respond to pressure, temperature and touch.
When applied to the desired location, CrossLinq provides gentle and continuous stimulation to the skin and underlying receptors. Practitioners believe this may help support the body’s natural recovery processes, encourage local circulation and promote overall balance and wellbeing.
Who Uses CrossLinq?
CrossLinq patches are used by physiotherapists, acupuncturists, massage therapists, chiropractors, osteopaths, sports therapists and other healthcare professionals. They are also suitable for experienced home users who are familiar with trigger points or acupuncture point locations.
For local areas of tension or discomfort, many users apply the patches themselves. For acupuncture points, meridian-based treatments and advanced therapeutic applications, professional guidance is recommended.
How to Apply CrossLinq Correctly
For best results, use plastic tweezers when handling the patch. This allows precise placement and helps prevent unnecessary contact with the adhesive surface.
- Identify the point or area you wish to target.
- Hold the patch using plastic tweezers.
- Slowly move the patch across the selected area of skin.
- Apply the patch diagonally (approximately 45°) at the desired location.
- Press firmly to secure the patch.
Important Application Guidelines
- Apply CrossLinq directly to the selected area, trigger point, acupuncture point or area of tension.
- Not every point shown in treatment charts requires treatment. Apply patches only to active or relevant points.
- Use only the number of patches required for the chosen application.
General Advice
- Rub the patch firmly after application to maximise adhesion.
- Apply only to clean, dry skin free from oils, creams or lotions.
- The patches are water-resistant and suitable for normal daily activities.
- CrossLinq patches can typically remain in place for several days.
- Replace after a maximum of one week.
- If a patch loosens naturally, replace it if desired.
- Remove immediately if skin irritation occurs.
