1. Begin with a thin layer of Pre-Wrap 1 Anchor Strip

2.  Support and Closure is basically all one continuous strip of tape  Angle the tape slightly towards the hand and tape around the wrist in a smooth motion  Overlap by about half

3.  When you reach the hand, angle the tape up go around through the thumb  Watch for bulges or wrinkles here  Pull the sides of the tape to straighten out wrinkles to avoid making it too tight

4.  Pinch the tape when pulling through the thumb to help avoid rubbing  Pinch the down edge of the tape that will rub against the crease of the hand

5.  Circle down and go around the wrist once  Follow the line that you just made and wrap the tape up through the hand again  Remember to pinch!

6.  Tape back down the forearm  The tape will angle slightly away from the hand on this pass  This forms a slight X pattern against the original strips

7.  End over the anchor strip  Check for feeling, warmth, and color – may want to check capillary bed refill
