WHAT IS EUCATAPE?Eucalyptus-infused hand drumming tape What does it do? HELPS PREVENT BRUISING COOLS THE HANDS AS YOU PLAY HEALS DUE TO IT'S NATURAL ANTI-INFLAMMATORY |
How Did Eucatape Start?
For the past 13 years (over 130 shows a year) I've been using tape to protect my hands. One fateful day my wife convinced me to visit a spa with her, with much hesitance I ended up going. The entire time I was there I was smelling this aroma that totally relaxed me. The massage therapist said it was Eucalyptus, and then and there a lightbulb went off in my head and I started thinking, "Why are my feet so ticklish", no, I'm kidding, I found myself wondering if I could mix this smell with the tape I use when playing drums. I started infusing my hand drumming tape in Eucalyptus and found that it not only had a relaxing tone to it, it actually helped me with how I played. I felt as if I could play longer, and because of the smell I could enjoy my drumming environment more. As well, I figured out that because of the healing qualities in Eucalyptus my hands weren't hurting as much. |
