73 TAPING AND BRACING
Tom Grossman
Kate Serenelli, MS, ATC, CSCS
Danny Mistry, MDINTRODUCTION•Taping and bracing are essential for the treatment and
rehabilitation of injuries. Appropriate taping decreases
angular velocity, restricts range of motion, and
enhances proprioception. Basic principles that should
be adhered to include the following:- Use “prewrap” to prevent excoriation of skin.
- Place joint in the immobilized position.
- Avoid continuous taping.
- Keep the roll in hand at all times.
- Smoothe and mold tape with the free hand.
- Do not tape after the application of a hot or cold
modality (AAOS, 1991).
TAPINGSHOULDER TAPING- Acromioclavicular tape:Used for a sprain of the
acromioclavicular (AC) joint. The tape should be
pulled opposite the direction of displacement to move
the clavicle back into the correct anatomical position.
