Low Dye Longitudinal Arch Support

Hi Everyone,

Hope you had a fantastic Easter long weekend! Weather was great so I hope you were all outdoors enjoying yourselves! I did some goalie specific soccer training and felt pretty good! Looking forward to being able to play again real soon. Anyways, my motivation for tomorrows tape job is that it is relevant to me right now!! HAHAHAH I've have been having random pain in my left foot off and on for nearly a year! The only way to avoid it is by using this particular tape job. Check out the video for the longitudinal arch suopport tape job called the "Low Dye":

We will learn this specific version as well as a couple of other variations! Make sure that you splay the foot in order to ensure the best tape job!!

Contact Wrist

Check out the video for a little preview of the tape job we will be covering in class tomorrow. It is called contact thumb and can be used to limit wrist hyper flexion & extension. The part that you want to watch is around minute 5:00.

Class tomorrow! Contact Thumb

Hi Everyone,

Looking forward to seeing you all again after the break! We will meet in C203 to continue on with our Sports 1st Aid and Taping seminars.

Tomorrow's tape job is called Contact Thumb. It is used to restrict movement of the thumb in sports that don't require a lot of dexterity (rugby, soccer, etc).

FYI - NCCP has informed me that you will not be getting certificates for your FMS course. My contact has indicated that you will get receive a coaching number so that you can log on to their system and print off your card. I will explain more on Monday.
