Carpal tunnel
Carpal tunnel taping
Application position
Sitting position, arm free.
Application procedure
1. Measure the first GEM tape from the elbow to the knuckle of the ring and middle finger, double the length and cut two half circles side by side in the middle. When unfolded, holes for the middle and ring fingers are created.
2. Tear the carrier paper at the holes and thread it on the middle and ring fingers. Glue the tape without pulling on the back of the hand, bend the hand at the wrist and glue the tape towards the elbow without pulling.
3. Turn the hand palm up and apply the tape to the completely dry palm without pulling. Bend the arm and apply the tape without pulling the wrist towards the elbow. Smooth each side.
4. Measure the second GEM tape over the wrist to the back of the hand. Glue the tape to the wrist with a slight pull from the centre on the inside of the wrist, turn the hand over and glue the ends of the tape without pulling on the back of the hand (the tapes will cross).
