Description
CrossLinq® Large Acupressure Patches are ultra-thin, grid-shaped adhesive patches designed for precise placement on acupuncture points, trigger points and other localised areas of intact skin.
Manufactured in South Korea, these non-elastic patches measure 4.4 x 5.2 cm. They offer the greatest coverage within the CrossLinq® range for broader application areas.
Why Choose Large CrossLinq® Patches?
Measuring 4.4 x 5.2 cm (1.73 x 2.05 in), Large CrossLinq® patches provide the maximum coverage available within the CrossLinq® range.
Where Small CrossLinq® patches excel on facial areas and Medium patches are ideal for the neck, shoulders and calves, Large CrossLinq® patches are designed for broader application areas and larger anatomical structures.
The larger grid allows comfortable coverage of extensive trigger points and application areas whilst maintaining the flexibility and comfort for which CrossLinq® is known.
Common Applications for Large CrossLinq® Patches
CrossLinq® patches are used in acupuncture, acupressure and taping routines. The Large size is used for selected points on areas such as:
- Knees and hip region
- Upper legs, quadriceps and hamstrings
- Gluteal muscles
- SI joint region and lower back
- Broad back muscles and larger muscle groups
These examples describe application locations rather than guaranteed treatment effects. For acupuncture points or more specialised applications, ask a qualified practitioner for guidance.
How Can CrossLinq® Fit Into Your Routine?
CrossLinq® patches are used by practitioners and home users familiar with the application method. The thin, ready-to-apply grid patches can be worn during normal daily activities. Choose a size that fits the selected area and follow the instructions supplied with the product.
What Is the Concept Behind CrossLinq®?
CrossLinq® patches are electrostatically charged grid plasters, used in a method based on acupressure principles. According to this method, removing a patch from its backing creates an electrostatic charge. When held close to the skin using plastic tweezers, the lightweight patch may bend or appear to be drawn towards the skin.
Practitioners using this approach observe this movement when choosing where to place a patch. It may sound unusual, but you can try holding a patch close to clean, dry, intact skin and observing what happens yourself. This attraction does not establish that the patch detects where your body needs treatment.
Are CrossLinq® Patches Magnetic Plasters?
Looking for magnetic plasters? CrossLinq® patches may look similar to some small adhesive patches, but they do not contain magnets. Their application is based on acupressure principles rather than magnetic therapy. They are made from cellulose acetate with a polyurethane coating and an acrylic adhesive layer.
Who Uses CrossLinq®?
CrossLinq® patches are used by physiotherapists, acupuncturists, massage therapists and other practitioners familiar with the application method. They are also used at home by people who understand the product instructions and appropriate placement.
If you are unsure which area to select or whether the product is suitable for your intended use, consult a qualified practitioner.
How to Apply CrossLinq® Correctly
Use plastic tweezers when handling the patch. This allows accurate placement and helps prevent unnecessary contact with the adhesive surface.
- Identify the trigger point, acupuncture point or treatment area.
- Hold the patch using plastic tweezers.
- Slowly move the patch across the selected area.
- Apply diagonally (approximately 45°).
- Press firmly to secure the patch.
Important Application Guidelines
- Apply CrossLinq® directly to the selected area, trigger point or acupuncture point.
- 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 selected 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 everyday 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.
Do not apply to open wounds, fresh scars or irritated skin. Do not use if you have a known sensitivity to the materials. Use each patch once and follow the packaging instructions for wear time and removal.
What Do Customers Say About CrossLinq®?
Customer feedback includes comments about ease of use and the choice of sizes. The Small patches are appreciated for hands and small joints, while larger patches are used on broader areas such as the shoulders, knees and back.
Some reviewers report less discomfort or itching, while others describe improvements in the appearance of fully healed scars. Experiences differ: some customers describe noticeable changes, while others are still assessing the product or use the patches alongside other treatments.
These comments summarise individual experiences across the CrossLinq® range. They are not clinical evidence or a guarantee of similar results.
