Document Summary
The strips of tape should overlap by width. No shadows or windows!: apply a vertical stirrup by starting the tape on the medial side of the ankle (for. Inversion sprain), passing the tape under the foot and applying tension up on the lateral side to evert the foot before attaching the tape on the anchor. Put all stirrups under the heel pad: apply a horizontal horseshoe, making sure to start and finish it on the fore - foot anchors. A second stirrup and horseshoe is followed by a third set to complete the basket weave the stirrups should lie just in front, directly over, and just posterior to the malleoli. One more heel lock must be applied to each side.
