Application: What, Why, and How (Lower Leg-Specific)
- What: Structural support for joints, tendons, and ligaments below carpus/hock—acute/chronic injuries, prevention, and return-to-work protocols
- Why: Lower leg has minimal muscle—prone to injury and slow healing. Support taping stabilizes, reduces excessive motion, aids recovery, and prevents re-injury
- How: Use EquiTecs 4-way stretch tape (2" and/or 3", single strips) 25–50% stretch (aim for 25% until confident, never overstretch). Layer 2" + 3" for extra rigidity if needed. Symmetrical application, no stretch on ends, maintain even tension to avoid “hourglass” effect. Leave on 5–7 days, reapply as needed. Full demo included in course
Unique Clinical Notes
- Anatomy is identical front/hind; only hoof shape differs
- Most common mistakes: overstretching, uneven tension, improper prep, anchors too short
- Layering tape increases rigidity—don’t increase stretch
- Monitor for swelling; add circulation application if present
- Tape safe for hydrotherapy, boots, wraps after adherence
- Contraindications: open wounds, fever/infection—consult vet
