Low-Dye Taping Technique
Low-Dye Taping Technique
The Low-Dye technique is commonly used in treating arch strains, plantar fasciitis, and lower
leg conditions to provide moderate support and correct structural abnormalities.
Materials include: 1” and 1½” nonelastic tape, tape adherent
Options: Pre-wrap
The patient should be sitting on a taping table or
bench with the leg extended off the edge and the foot
placed at a 90-degree angle.
Anchor 1” tape directly to the skin over the lateral surface of the 5th MTP joint, continue around
the heel, and finish on the medial surface of the 1st MTP joint.
Repeat this step, overlapping by half and staying inferior to the malleoli.
Anchor a strip of 1½” tape on the lateral aspect of the proximal foot, pull medially, and finish on
the medial side. Repeat this process with 1½” tape 2-3 more times, overlapping by half the
width of the tape, until you near the 1st MTP joint.
You can apply a second layer of support if desired.
Finish by applying an anchor strip of 1½” non-elastic tape (2” elastic tape optional) around the
foot.
