Main Uses:
1. Joint fixation and support: Ankle fixation: Prevent and deal with ankle sprains, commonly seen in sports like basketball, volleyball, football, and badminton that involve frequent running, jumping, and changing directions.
Wrist/finger fixation: Used in sports like boxing, basketball, and volleyball to protect the wrist and finger joints from being poked or overextended.
Elbow/knee auxiliary fixation: Provides additional stability for conditions like tendinitis.
2. Ligament and muscle protection: By using specific wrapping methods, it can reduce the load on ligaments, tendons, and muscles, providing extra protection for weak areas.
3. Sports rehabilitation: In physical therapy, sports therapists often use it to help patients stabilize injured joints and perform rehabilitation training within a reasonable range.
4. Other uses: Sometimes it is also used to fix bandages, gauze, and other dressings.
Usage Method:
1. Skin preparation: Ensure the skin is clean, dry, and free of oil. For areas with a lot of hair, it is recommended to shave to avoid pain and reduced adhesion when removing. You can apply a skin membrane underwrap (sports bandage base film) to protect the skin.
2. Anchor point fixation: Wrap around the corresponding area once to create a starting point (anchor point).
3. Implement bandaging: Use specific wrapping techniques (such as horseshoe wrap, heel lock wrap, etc., for ankles) based on the desired fixation or support purpose. Overlap about half the width of each piece of tape.
4. Finish bandaging: End with another anchor point to ensure the tape is secure.
5. Check: After bandaging, check the tightness to ensure it does not affect blood circulation and that joint movement is restricted within the expected range.
