Thank you so much for posting this detailed and yet simple taping technique. I've been unable to put any pressure on my heel for over 6 weeks. The injury started slowly and progressively got much worse over several days and I thought it would just go away. WRONG!!! But you, kind sir, are a miracle worker. I feel close to normal and I will now be able to carefully do the exercises to help my Achilles recover fully. Again, Thank You, Thank You, Thank You. Oh, and I tried so many of the other taping suggestions on RUclips and yours was the only one that worked.
Thanks sir Physiotherapist, your taping style for insertional Achilles Tendonitis is more on stability in the heel while to avoid dorsiflexion and prevent heel pain your taping style extend vertically at Achilles area, you have flexibility and variations In your lecture sir. Thanks sir.
Wow, just applied the strapping tape using the first method - the tape is nowhere near where I feel the pain in the tendon, above the heel - and what a difference. Just shows how the effects of load on all those levers and cables in the body can show up in odd, unintuitive places. Hopefully I'll be back to running sooner rather than later (not too soon, lol, injured it over a week back, it felt fine, tried a gentle jog two days ago, didn't even make it 200 m before I started hobbling).
Hi! It is for pain management and will not fix the injury on its own. This taping will need to be combined with load management. Head over to our online course for full details on resolving Achilles Tendinopathy: click-physiotherapy.teachable.com/p/achilles-online-course/
Hey! This is called rigid tape, or Sports tape. You can get it straight from Amazon, check out this article for the details: www.clickphysiotherapy.com.au/the-secret-taping-for-achilles-tendonitis-that-no-one-is-using/

That's awesome to hear! Glad we could help you out :)
Is there any reason you wouldn't combine the 2?
Is this just for pain management or does it help with recovery and healing of insertional as well?
