CrossLinq® VET Cross Patches for Animals
CrossLinq® VET are non-elastic cross patches specially developed for veterinary use. They can be applied to the coat or directly to the skin when the area has been shaved, and are commonly used by animal therapists as part of treatments involving acupuncture points, trigger points, scars, muscles, joints and other sensitive areas.
Available in Medium and Large sizes, CrossLinq® VET offers therapists a simple and non-invasive addition to veterinary treatment for horses, dogs and other animals.

What Are CrossLinq® VET Cross Patches?
CrossLinq® VET consists of small, non-elastic grid-shaped patches with a skin-friendly acrylic adhesive. Their characteristic cross-grid structure originates from concepts used within traditional Eastern therapeutic methods and is designed for targeted application to specific points or areas of the body.
Within veterinary practice, therapists use CrossLinq® VET on areas such as acupuncture and meridian points, trigger points, muscles, joints, ligaments, scars and other locally sensitive areas. They can be used independently or as a complementary product alongside VetkinTape® veterinary kinesiology tape.
CrossLinq® VET Medium
The Medium size measures 2.1 x 2.7 cm and is suitable for more targeted applications on smaller areas. Each package contains 20 sheets with 8 CrossLinq® patches per sheet, giving you a total of 160 patches.
CrossLinq® VET Large
The Large size measures 4.4 x 5.2 cm and provides greater coverage for larger treatment areas and larger animals. Each package contains 20 sheets with 2 CrossLinq® patches per sheet, giving you a total of 40 patches.
How Do You Apply CrossLinq® VET?
CrossLinq® VET can be applied directly to a clean and dust-free animal coat. When the coat has been shaved, for example following a veterinary procedure, the patches may also be applied directly to intact skin. Never apply CrossLinq® VET directly over an open wound.
The patches are generally applied diagonally at approximately a 45-degree angle. They are water-resistant and can remain in place for several days, depending on the coat, application area and activity of the animal. Replace the patch when the edges begin to loosen.
For Horses, Dogs and Other Animals
CrossLinq® VET can be incorporated into treatment by equine therapists, canine therapists, veterinary physiotherapists and other animal health professionals. The different patch sizes make it possible to adapt the application to the animal and treatment area.
For therapists who also work with veterinary kinesiology tape, CrossLinq® VET and VetkinTape® can complement each other as part of a broader veterinary taping approach.
Please note: many veterinary applications of CrossLinq® are based on practical experience reported by trained therapists and have not yet been scientifically established. CrossLinq® VET should not replace veterinary diagnosis or medical treatment.
