-----------------------------------------------------------------------
STEP 1 - MEASURE & CUT
Measure and cut 2 strips from PSIS to the mid-point of the spine. You could also use SPORTTAPE 10cm Extra Wide K Tape cut in half.
STEP 2 - LAY ANCHORS WITH 0% STRETCH
Lay the base of the Y STRIP directly over PSIS with no tension.
STEP 3 - FLEX FORWARD TO STRETCH THE MUSCLE
Place the patient into lumbar flexion and left side flexion. The most effective way to do this is in 4 points kneeling, however, you can have the patient stand and bend forward if you don't have access to a bed.
STEP 4 - LAY FIRST STRIP WITH 0% STRETCH
Lay one half of the Y STRIP down along the line of Erector Spinae with no tension.
STEP 5 - REPEAT FOR SECOND STRIP
Repeat on the opposite side and return the patient to a neutral spine position.
STEP 6 - K TAPE LIFT
Cut a new strip of tape and using a 'stretch technique,' place the strip across the point of pain with 50-75% tension. Remember to keep the ends of the tape at 0% tension.
That's it. Just be sure to WAIT 30 minutes before exercising so that the glue has time to set. SPORTTAPE Kinesiology Tapes can be worn for up to 7 days through swimming, showering and sweating.
