Default Plantar Fasciitis Taping

In the picture 1" and 2" sports tape is used. Bandage tapes typically do not adhere well to the skin.

It can be difficult to do the plantar fasciitis taping on your own foot because you need to hold down the big toe joint (creating a high arch) when bringing the tape around from the outside of the foot in towards the arch. It is recommended to use sports tape adherent before applying the tape (and this can be found at many drug stores), so the tape will stay on for a longer period of time.
