Tape job Tuesday: Patellar Taping
This type of tape can be used for:
- Chondromalacia Patallae
- Patellofemoral pain syndrome
- Knee osteoarthritis
🔵Patient position is seated with knee bent 90 degrees.
⚓️ Anchors may be longer than demonstrated in the video to secure the tape further.
🔵This tape job is meant to aid in correcting the patella tracking position as the knee moves from flexion to extension through walking, running and squatting positions.
‼️This tape job is meant to aid but is not a solution to the pain. ‼️
🦵🏼Be sure to consult your physical therapist, athletic trainer or orthopedic specialist to create a game plan of rehabilitation for your pain. This tape job is just one piece to the puzzle! 🧩
Happy healing! 💙
