Achilles tendon

Position during application

The limb is bent at the ankle, thus achieving stretching of the taped area.

Application procedure

1. Measure the GEM tape from the bottom of the heel to about mid-calf.

2. Round the corners and glue the anchor of the tape to the heel from underneath, without pulling.

3. Thread the tape upwards over the Achilles tendon, glue the end and iron the whole length.
