- Prepare Skin: Ensure the skin is clean, dry, and free from oils or lotions. Trim excess hair if needed for better adhesion.
- Apply Tape: Cut or tear the tape to the required length, applying it section by section with up to half-width overlap. Anchor firmly and smooth out wrinkles. Avoid overtightening or pulling the tape using the limb, as this may restrict circulation or worsen an injury.
- Check Fit: Ensure the tape is secure and provides proper support. Adjust as needed. Avoid excessive or inadequate coverage to prevent strain or limited mobility.
- Remove: Use bandage scissors or gently peel off to avoid irritation. Warm water or adhesive remover may assist.
