K TAPING SHOULDER

Measure from the deltoid tuberosity to the acromiom and cut 2 strips of  K TAPE.

Measure the tape slightly long to allow for the stretch on the muscle.

Prepare a Y STRIP by cutting one strip of tape in half lengthways, leaving a small tab at one end.

Stick this tab to the deltoid tuberosity with 0% stretch.

Bring your arm behind your back, placing the shoulder in horizontal adduction and medial rotation.

Lay the anterior tail of the Y STRIP along the anterior deltoid, finishing at the shoulder.

Move the arm to a full stretch across the front of your body, supporting with the other arm if needed.

Lay the posterior tail of the Y STRIP along the posterior deltoid, finishing at the shoulder and creating a teardrop shape.

Measure and cut another strip of tape fromSlump your shoulder and tilt your head towards the opposite shoulder.

Lay the base of the second strip down with 0% stretch (preferably on the skin for greater adhesion) at the bottom of the deltoid.

Stick the rest of the tape down with 0% stretch; up the arm and across the shoulder.

Wait 30 minutes before exercising to allow the tape time to set.
