Arch Taping with Kinesiotape (KT)

You need to watch how to apply kt tape. They give great tips! I'm a massage therapy student and we use kinesiology tape, but I've been using it a few years. Have tried it the way you've shown and the way kt tells you how and kt tapes tips seem to work better. Also this tape is not waterproof, it is like fabric it absorbs water but dries fairly fast; however the adhesive cannot be removed with just water (needs oil based product to remove). Not trying to be a snob just trying to help. Love the one strip taping technique, saves a little money and makes a great and simple support!

Dr Blake's reply:

No snobbery noted and thank you. I will try to find the KT tape video. Thank you so very much. It will help so many people. Rich Blake

Here is my original video that sparked this comment.



Here is one version of KT for arch pain. I sure hope it helps some of you guys. 

Arch Taping with Low Dye

Dr. Blake,

I visited you this past Friday morning and took a look at your website for the first time today.  It does have a video of the "easier" arch taping method, using the stretchier tape, but not the more difficult method that you recommended for jogging.  I am finding the instruction sheet somewhat hard to follow and I thought you said there was a video showing this method as well?  Can you let me know?

Thanks,
Stefani (name changed)

P.S. You did not tell me if I should schedule a follow-up visit or when I should do so.  If you have a chance, please let me know.  Thank you!

Dr Blake's response: 

See me in 1 to 2 weeks for evaluation. It was nice to meet you. Rich
