Bandage(tape-instruction)



Type: HOLLOW FOOT TENDON:

Objective: Support, and therefore relieve, the aponeurosis under the foot (aponeurosis plantaris).

Application: A tape “anchor” is applied around the forefoot behind the toe pad (A). The second strip (B) begins from the anchor on the outer border of the foot, taken around the heel (under the heel tendon) and forward under the instep on the inside to the anchor. The third strip (C) starts from the anchor on the inner border of the foot, is taken around the heel in the same way and forward under the instep on the outer side, to the anchor. A possible fourth strip begins from the anchor on the outer border of the foot in between the two other strips, and is taken around the heel and forward under the instep between the two other strips. Finish with a further strip on top of the anchor A.
