Exercises With Ankle Dorsiflexion-Assisting Taping

Description

Place a half strip of tape on the front of the ankle, over the talus, just below the malleoli, then run it behind the heel over the calcaneus. If you are unsure about the placement, ask your physio for advice. Once the tape is correctly positioned, perform the prescribed exercises, such as squats or lunges, always keeping the heel on the ground. The taping helps support ankle flexion by limiting the forward glide of the talus during movement.
