GB Judo - Hand & Wrist Strapping
In this informative video, Steve Miller, Rehabilitation Specialist at GB Judo, shows a quick strapping technique he uses on some of the judo fighters.
To start, lay down the anchor points with Tiger Zinc Oxide 3.8cm, one around the wrist and one below the distal palmer.
Once done, start applying supporting strips in a criss-cross pattern and along the middle of the palm, slightly overlapping each layer. Repeat this on the back of the hand.
To finish off, use Tiger Club EAB 5cm to create a figure of 8 around the straps on the hand and wrist. Secure the end of the EAB with Zinc Oxide to keep it in place.
Whilst this video provides some great tips, please seek guidance from a medical professional or physiotherapist before attempting this taping technique.
