Video Response
Demonstrate the following steps:
1. Position the patient sitting on a taping table with the leg extended off the edge with the foot in dorsiflexion.
2. Demonstrate spraying area with tape adherent (without actually spraying adherent on patient)
3. Apply thin foam pads with skin lubricant over the heel and lace areas to provide additional adherence and lessen irritation.
4. Apply one thin, smooth layer of pre-wrap to foot and ankle (pre-wrap may be under or over thin foam pads above).
5. Using non-elastic tape, applied two anchor strips at a slight angle around the distal lower leg, just inferior to the gastrocnemius belly.
6. Placed an anchor strip around the midfoot, proximal to the fifth metatarsal head.

Video Response
Demonstrate the following:
1. Start the first stirrup on the medial lower leg anchor and proceed down over the posterior medial malleolus, across the plantar surface of the foot and continued up and over the posterior lateral malleolus, finishing on the lateral lower leg anchor.
2. Began the first horseshoe strip on anchor of the medial aspect of the midfoot, continued around the distal Achilles tendon, across the distal lateral malleolus, and finished on the anchor of the lateral midfoot,proximal to the fifth metatarsal head.
3. Started the second stirrup on the medial lower leg anchor by overlapping the first by ½ of the tape width, continued down over the medial malleolus, across the plantar foot, up and over the lateral malleolus, and finished on the anchor of the lateral lower leg.
4. Began the second horseshoe on the medial rearfoot and overlapped the
first by ½ of the tape width.
5. Applied the third stirrup, beginning on the medial lower leg anchor,
overlapping the second and covered the anterior medial and lateral malleoli.
6. Starting on the medial rearfoot, applied the third horseshoe, overlapping the second.

Video Response
Demonstrate the Following:
1. Anchored the first heel lock across the lateral lace area at an angle toward the medial longitudinal arch. Continued across the arch, then angled the tape upward and pulled across the lateral calcaneus, around the posterior heel, finishing on the lateral lace area.
2. Repeated the same pattern on the other side of the ankle joint moving in the opposite direction.
3. Applied four heel locks to ensure maximum stability
4. Apply two figure eights
5. Apply locking strips to secure tape and fill openings

Video Response
Demonstrate the Following:
1. Positioned patient prone or kneeling on a taping table, with the lower leg extended off the edge.
2. Placed hand on the plantar surface of the distal foot and slowly moved foot into dorsiflexion until patient notifies competitor that pain occurs.
3. When painful range of motion is determined, placed foot in pain-free range & maintained the position during application.
4. Demonstrated spraying the lower leg and plantar surface of the foot with tape adherent (without actually spraying adherent on patient). 1 0 10. Placed thin foam pad over the heel to prevent irritation.
5. Applied pre-wrap over the area being taped to lessen irritation (prewrap may be under or over thin foam pad above).
6. Applied two anchors around the lower leg, inferior to the knee, around the upper portion of the gastrocnemius belly.
7. Placed the other anchor around the ball of the foot.

Video Response
Demonstrate the Following:
1. Anchored a strip of heavyweight elastic tape on the mid-to-distal plantar foot. Proceeded over the middle calcaneus, and finished on the distal lower leg anchor.
2. Anchored the next strip of heavyweight elastic tape at an angle over the head of the 5th metatarsal, continued over the medial calcaneus, and finished on the medial lower leg anchor.
3. Placed the last heavyweight elastic tape strip at an angle over the head of the 1st metatarsal, proceeded over the lateral calcaneus, and finished on the lateral lower leg anchor.

Video Response
Demonstrate the following
Completed the series by placing 2-3 circular strips of elastic tape around the foot.
2. Placed 4-6 strips of elastic tape around the lower leg

10
Video Response
Demonstrate the Following
1. Anchored the extended end of the wrap on the mid-to-proximal lateral upper
arm and proceeded around the upper arm in a medial direction to encircle the anchor.
2. At the posterior upper arm, continued the wrap in a medial direction over the
lateral shoulder, across the chest, under the axilla of the non-involved arm, then across the upper back.
3. Next, continued over the lateral involved shoulder, under the axilla, and encircle the upper arm.
4. Repeat this spica pattern two to four times with the wrap, overlapping slightly.
5. Finished the wrap over the involved shoulder, upper back, or thorax area.
6. Anchored elastic tape at the end of the wrap and applied 1-2 spica patterns over the wrap with this tape

Video Response
1. Apply pre-wrap to the wrist and hand to lessen irritation.
2. Anchor non-elastic tape over the ulnar styloid process and
continued in a circular, lateral-to-medial direction around the wrist and
returned to the anchor.
3. Applied 4-5 additional circular strips around the wrist, overlapping by
½ the width of the tape. (Strips may be applied individually or
continuously)
13
Video Response
Demonstrate the following
1. Begin again at the ulnar styloid process, applied tape in a medial direction over the dorsum of the hand, over the thenar web space, then across the distal palm. (Tape may need to be creased through the thenar web space to prevent constriction)
2. Continued from the fifth metacarpal over the dorsum of the hand to the distal radius around the wrist, & returned to the ulnar styloid process.
3. Repeated this figure eight pattern, overlapping by 1/3 the tape width, and anchored on the dorsal wrist.
