In another video John shows you how to tape for posture as this technique will help control the position of the thoracic spine and shoulder girdle and also the upper crossed syndrome (UCS) defined by Janda. Great to control forward head posture, thoracic outlet syndrome, cervical pain and even headaches because of the control position. The patient can leave the tape on for 3-5 days and make sure patient is not allergic to any of the products prior to application.
John also has many other videos, e.g. during his hip joint videos he discusses an acetabular labral tear and also a femoroacetabular impingement called an FAI - these are cam and pincer type of impingement. He also mentions perthes disease and osteoarthritis of the hip joint. John also discusses how the hip flexors (psoas) are involved and the iliofemoral ligaments and how they cause an inhibition to the gluteus maximus (Gmax) through the hip extension firing pattern test. Janda and the lower crossed syndrome is also mentioned and how this can cause lower back, facet or disc pathology of L5 or L5 and involve the nerve roots.
John also shows you in his other videos to assess the nerve root level of the adductors (obturator nerve through L3 reflex), patella tendon (femoral nerve through L4 reflex), semitendinosus (tibial / sciatic nerve of L5 reflex) and Achilles / plantar (tibial nerve of sciatic through S1 reflex) and a normal response is classified as 2++. Any reduced hypo-reflex (1+) or increased hyper-reflex (3+++) with Clonus and Babinski positive as might indicate some form of upper motor neurone lesion like Multiple sclerosis, stroke, spinal cord tumour or brain injury.

as a soccer coach, and girl dad of a soccer goalie I have found these videos to be so helpful.
Great to hear! Regards JG
Thank you for the demonstration, I’ve just stopped wearing my surgical boot after 3 weeks since having a moderate ankle sprain but I still feel the need of extra support.
Your video has helped me to apply it correctly xx
Glad it was helpful! Regards JG
Thank you so much, just taped my ankle using your video. So helpful 😊
You're so welcome! Regards JG
Thanks John! Just what i needed.
Thanks for the message, regards JG
Hi John, I have just done this taping technique on a friend. He said it felt comfortable and provided stability so thanks. One thing about the video, it would be good to see the other side of the ankle to make sure we know the full technique. Thanks Karen
Thanks for the message and lovely comments and yes I agree, regards JG
hi John, I'll try on my self. thanks
agree. but great video.
This worked great on my right ankle but it feels like my left ankle need the opposite kind of support (stuck in the opposite of the right). Do you have a video for that?
Great! Thank you.
Glad you liked it! Regards JG
Thank you so much john for the video.Do you think i can use this method on a 3 years old girl that walks on her toes with a tendacy to inversion?instead of using a plastic support?and change it every 5-4 days? So she can have a bit quality of life?(from time to time not on a regular base).thank you so much.
It is worth a try as could help as can leave it on for 5 days, the size of the tape might be an issue as it is 5cm wide so it could be to big for the ankle so check first but should be fine, i think. regards JG
I had a grade3 ankle sprain without any avulsion fracture and my doctor advised me pop cast for 10 days can I apply k tape after removal of pop for ankle stability
You can indeed as will help. regards JG
My son is a high school senior wrestler. He sprained annkle and kindda hurt knee last week wrestling. He does not want to take a break and still going to practice. Ankle is a little puffy, just a little bit though. Knee not swollen but is unconformable. Anyways he can use tape and use compression sleeves at the same time? If tape comes off when taking a shower can he just use compression sleeves during the whole day to reduce swelling?
Don’t remember seeing that during rock taping class, what r u trying to prevent/make better
Used to stabilise the ATFL and CFL ligaments, regards JG
@@JohnGibbons would this prevent ankle sprains
If they don’t do you have videos that do?
Can i use this while my ankle is swollen? Right now my ankle is swollen so im thinking maybe its better to put compression on it (to reduce swollen) instead of KT. Or can i use compression on top of the KT? Sorry for so many questions. What do u think i should do?
I have a taping technique specifically for swollen ankle so look at that one as probably better if the ankle has swollen and then apply this one i show here once the swelling has gone down, good luck, regards JG
For me I’d like to have seen video from the anchor point at the start.
For me the video is really good, and demonstrates one of the best way to tape an ankle, regards JG
We can't see the placement of the KT on the interior portion of the ankle and leg. Camera angle needs to show both angles/ sides.
Looks fine to me, regards JG
Hi John
I have been advised by my podiatrist to wear an aircast for 4 weeks after an inversion sprain. Bruised and swollen. Can I use this taping method while using the boot? Or would this just be for support after the boot is off? Thank you!
Fellow orthopedic nurse here. You can use the kt tape after you are done with the boot to still give you extra stability. An aircast boot has quite a bit of support on its own so you don’t have to use both simultaneously
Can the patient do ankle strengthening exercises while the tape is still there?
Yes not a problem, regards JG
Could you do an anterior ankle impingement kt tape? I suffer with it on my right ankle and I would really appreciate your help
Possibly at some point, regards jG
Hii, great stuff. Can I use for ankle stability during fast bowling.??
Yes, absolutely and worth a try - regards JG
Hi, may I asked how to measure the length of the tape when taping the ankle?
Some tape have squares on the back so if you use 5 squares it will be a typical size to use, for ankles I tend to use 6 or 7 squares - regards JG
Would be really nice to get to see the other side of the ankle, there... Question: I understand why one would apply the first two long i-strips in that direction if they were coach tape strips. Wouldn't you want to apply them in the opposite direction to keep that ankle stabilized? If I tape a shoulder in a retracted position from scapula to right in front of the gh-joint, I wouldn't go front to back, I'd go back to front. Just asking, not trying to be a smart-ass.
The to long strips act as a stirrup so helps stabilise, regards JG
What's different about this then your other video for taping ankles?
Hi, this is a variation of the other taping techniques I demonstrate and i also vary the amount of stretch to provide more stability if required. Regards JG
My mom Lateral Malleolus bone Swealing in one leg but no pain no fractures. Why this happened 😢😢😢. And what to do now ? Thankyou
Hard to comment without looking at your Mum - could be a simple sprain of the ankle that she might not even remember doing. Try the simple rest ,Ice, compression, elevation as that will help and some anti inflammatories if the swelling persists. Regards JG
@@JohnGibbons thankyou ❤
Can I use this even if my ankle is swollen from sprain which happened 2 days back? And also is it ok to walk on swollen ankle?
You can as will help, try and have a gap between the tape so it will allow for swelling - regards JG
Nicee! What are the exact benefits of ankle taping and when should we not use it?
thanks for the message and when you look after athletes every day then taping is an integral part of treatment as helps stabilise the joint. If the ankle is acute and really swollen then i would wait a few days till the swelling reduced before i taped. regards JG
What's the length of the tape pieces?
How days rest? Anterior tibiofibular ligament is thickened-chronic sprain. Recovery time???? Plz reply?
If you damaged this ligament then you would have damaged the syndesmosis joint (typically through a fracture) between the tibia and fibula so there would be other structures involved and can take many months to settle down, regards JG
Is this the best tape technique to play on the sprained ankle?
Its one of the better tapes to use as will help and wont restrict the ankle to much, regards JG
@@JohnGibbons Thank you! We did use it for my daughter for her soccer game and she said the ankle felt really good with the tape job. Thank you for sharing!
How long are the smaller pieces usually?
If you look on the back of the tape then use 3 squares for the smaller pieces and 5 squares for the normal size strips, regards JG
Hi, I lightly sprained my ankle, after three days I feel better, still stiff. I've started ankle mobility exercices today, when can I hope to run again with kinesiology taping pls ?
If its only a minor sprain then with the correct exercises you can probably start to jog-run within a week or two, regards JG
Will this work for an ankle avulsion fracture?
Thanks for the message and yes will help, regards JG
Que marca es este Tape?
Thanks for the message but not sure if i understand the language? regards JG
Hllo John...
Can we apply this tape on swelled ankle as in acute inversion sprain
Or we have to wait for swelling to subside
Tekchand Sharma thanks for message and you can apply in acute stage of injury as the tape has 180% stretch so it will help. I do show one specially for a swollen ankle so maybe look at that one as well. Regards JG
Thanks a lot.
מלכה סגל thanks
Can Kinesiology taping help with Slue Feet
Taping can help most conditions but don't know for Slue feet as not sure what that is....regards JG
@@JohnGibbons when feet are walking like Ducks walk.
Wil this be beneficial for acute sports cases
As long as the ankle is not to swollen then ok to apply, regards JG
@@JohnGibbons thanks mate
Can I play basketball with these tape for support? Thanks
You can indeed - regards JG
@@JohnGibbons thank you so much. I'm going to use that way. And if there is other method that's better or gives more support please make a video of pre-basketball taping for ankle and achilles support.. I have doubt of using the pro tape that is too rigid for taping ankle I'm afraid that when I stepped on other's foot, because it's too rigid, the next joint will react which is the knee.. unlike this kinesio tape it's still flexible.. thank you so much and more power!
Where did I get this strip Pl tell mi
Rocktape is the best type on Market - regards JG
i already 6months but still not recovery. any idea?
Razzuwan Razali thanks for message and difficult to answer without looking at you...ligaments take many months to heal and 6-12 months is normal. A Mri scan can help but there is a cost to it. Try and see someone like me if you can...regards JG
John Gibbons tq for your reply. fyi i already did MRI after sprain ankle on July. doc said ligament tear. but i keep running but not everyday as before.my motion feet not good and still not recover yet.so i decide to stop run now.
Depends on the tear of the ligament, I presume it was a serious one once the time it is taking to recover. Good luck as might need some more time...regards JG
Hello jhon how are you im facing ancle rotation rproblem i got brain stock 2017 what can I do
Hello from Thailand - not sure what you are asking if honest - if you have a mobility issue of the ankle then I suggest seeing someone like me as surely they can help, regards JG
Oh how I wish you’d show the other side of the ankle too! 😕
The technique looks the same but crosses the medial malleolus instead of the lateral malleolus...hope that helps, regards JG
Good
Thanks
Hallo Sir John .
i have my question my both Ankle 15 yers ago pain Whether I work or not, it hurts. Every day it hurts for 15 minutes. Then it gets better. I go to the sector. The pain decreases. If I work, it hurts more. It hurts when I walk back and forth in the house for 15 minutes and then it gets better. What I use for my ankle shoes or some other ?Please advise me .
See a therapist near to where you live as sure they can help as hard to comment without looking at you, regards jG
@@JohnGibbons The doctor says you are fine. He has given me X-rays a few times but he says you are fine but I am in pain.he no understand my pain!
no comprendo pero veo q hace y funciona
Thanks for comment, regards JG
That KT is a real attention getter isn’t it?
Sometimes it looks good - regards JG
Why woulf u not show the other side of the anklem just pointless
I am showing taping for the ATFL and CFL ligaments and also the peroneal muscles. that's why I am showing the lateral side mainly, regards JG
But you still haven't answered the question
What about hair on legs .You forgot . Bad video man .
This tape works ok on hair compared to athletic tape, regards JG
Not worth a shite!
How rest? Anterior tibiofibular ligament is thickened-chronic sprain. Recovery time???? Plz reply?
If you damaged this ligament then you would have damaged the syndesmosis joint (typically through a fracture) between the tibia and fibula so there would be other structures involved and can take many months to settle down, regards JG
@@JohnGibbons How many months does it take to change completely?
