- Dr. Ray's do-it-yourself instructions how to complete a plantar taping for bottom-of-foot pain. Watch all the way through once, then follow along while you wrap your own foot. www.correcttoes.com for more info on Natural Foot Health.
Hi Pete- The plantar taping is going to support mostly the bottom and sides of your foot. Our extensor stretch video might be a better option. We also have an article about different way to treat tendonitis on our website.
Thanks a lot! Will this also be beneficial for problems with the M. abductor hallucis?
I just started taking Irish step dancing lessons, and the top of my left foot, from big toe to ankle, has been bothering me. I suspect it's due to a weak arch and inward pronation. Would this wrap work to provide support for this issue?
would candle wax suffice in the end, in rubbing into the tape?
Is this technique is used for navicular navicular bone ?
I would like to try this plantar taping but I have so many other issues with my feet. I have capsulitis under the second toe, hallux limitus, bunion, arches hurt and my plantar fascia is being pulled by excubent heel spurs in both foot. My fat pad has been pushed to the under toes. I think wearing orthotics for too many years have created alot of problems. I have alot of tension in my feet as they are so hurtful. Would this taping, along with correct toes and the correct toes help and perhaps a metatarsal pad help. My feet have taken a beating and I do not know how to get of out of this mess. Please let me know, I have not been able to locate anyone with your expertise. I am seriously thinking of coming out to Portland before I cannot walk, I seriously need help.
can i first apply pre wrap mueller before doing this or nahh?
Hey Doc, thanks for posting this video. Do you have any taping suggestions for plantar plate separation? I've never had spaces between my toes, now I've noticed that I have a gap between my big toe and the one beside it. This is on both feet. I'm noticed this last year after I bought some shoes in one season, but didn't wear them until a few seasons later, probably 6-9 months. So I noticed immediately something had changed because I never ever buy tight shoes. I have always, since little, had pain in the bottom of feet. Especially when jumping down from something, but now jump walking and wearing shoes period hurt my feet. I feel better barefoot. I'm 50 now. Thanks for any suggestions.
Hi TEadventures, there are a number of great taping options, but definitely the best way to handle this would to go in to a local physician and get a physical evaluation.
This along with my correct toes seems to be doing the trick. Thanks so much
Always glad to here Correct Toes are working!
Great stuff, thanks a bunch!!
What if a person is allergic to the tape, Can a piece of gause be put underneith the wrap? I tried taping a hammer toe, after 5 days I had a wound that turned into cellulitis which took 3 months of antibiotics to eliminate;it was no fun since my gut was also ruined!
Just awesome!
I wear work boots daily. Have 1-1 1/2 inch difference in leg length and I am flat footed. I do a lot of hiking and believe I have developed extensor tendonitis. Would these wraps be appropriate in aiding the healing process
Dancer's Fracture
is broken! is this tape good for broken Dancer's Fracture
Can I run with this wrap on when I have planter fasciitis?
I found this taping works very well for me, replacing general supportive elastic devices for fasciosis symptoms while working 8 hours or more on my feet. It's comfortable, minimal but very much more to the point than anything I've used up to now. My feet felt good afterwards, with no aches in the morning. Many thanks.
Hi Dr Ray. Most of my pain is at the base of my big toe on the underside. Do you have any taping/padding advice for this please.
Pull your big toe outwards of your foot thats what i do to relief big toe pain
ive had anterior and posterior lower lumbar fusion about a year ago and i suffer from numbness on my left side my toes on my left foot twitches and tightening
Yes, candle wax would be a sufficient substitute
Can u recommend what doctor specialty that will be able to do this taping?
Most Podiatrists can do this taping. We recommend calling local ones in your area.
I will try it
3 inch tenosplast?
is this recommended in case of plntar fasciosis?
Hi, Sun! Thanks for the question. Yes, we do also recommend this taping for Plantar Fasciosis as it helps support the foot temporarily. I've linked a video that reviews Plantar Fasciosis and other forms of treatment in case you're interested: th-cam.com/video/tNPfbB2sX5Q/w-d-xo.html
Dr. McCLanahan, do you know of a physician near Charlotte NC who shares your perspective and theory of plantar fasciitis? I have suffered for 10 years, many treatments (shock, tenex, etc.) and would love to have a doctor who could view my condition with a differet perspective. Thank you!
At this time we do not have any contacts to share. The best way to find like minded facilities is searching places that sell Correct Toes or even asking a Naturopathic Doctor in your area.
@@correcttoes thank you so much for responding. I've seen many doctors without success, and am very impressed with Dr. McClanahan. Thanks again!
Can you use kinesiology tape for this?
Definitely
What width Tensoplast tape were you using? It comes in 1, 2, 3 and 4" widths.
Also, what exact spray 'adhesive fixative spray' are you meaning by what manufacturer? Fixative isn't an adhesive, it is designed to keep drawings from smudging. Spray adhesive has awesomely rugged holding power and would probably be permanently bonded to your foot afterwards?
Gary Creighton We use the 3" tensoplast tape and Tuf-Skin tape adherent.
+Gary Creighton There are many factors in plantar foot treatment. One plan I discovered that successfully combines these is the Natural Foot Wizard (check it out on google) without a doubt the most helpful remedy that I have ever seen.look at all the super information .
how long is this tapping expected to last ? thanks
It depends on the amount of activity you are doing with the tape on your foot and how well you tape the foot. It can range from 24 hours to four days. Also, if you shower, be sure to keep it dry.

Very painful this condition. I have a Morton’s Neuroma and that too is painful.
I have PF and it is extremely painful. I have tried everything and I mean everything. I started wrapping my foot and now I can walk my dog in peace.
We're so happy for your progress!
Anyone else come here to get tips about plantar fasciitis ?
Hi there! We have some resources that will hopefully be useful in your search. Here's a video specifically on the topic:

Can I get d name off tape
Just this honestly do anything?
An inflamed tendon that is constantly being pulled on can never heal. This relieves the pull on the tendon, allowing the body to help the damage.

I don't understand, I thought fascitis was a misnomer, and it really is about dead tissue in your feet, not so much inflammation, so why are we now talking about an "inflamed tendon"
Lois Yoder Fasciiatis in this context refers to the inflammation of the plantar fascia.
my goodness just had my foot tapped ,1st visit at the podiatrist and the tape is already falling off ,he said keep it on for 3 days ,,that's funny !was he just being lazy ?? it's not right , I paid 115$ for this ,ggrr
Hello, N. stiller. Was this taping done at our office?
No ,I came here to see how I can do it myself ,I was just venting ,,I have never been to your office .
We hope the video helped! If you need any further clarification, give us a call.
@n.stiller146 what is involved having your foot "tapped"? Is that like EFT?
I've been studying plantar foot treatments and discovered a fantastic resource at Fergs Foot Formula (google it if you are interested)
Well if you're going to say that then you have to tell everybody what it is now
another bs answer....apparently whatever it was was crap as it no longer exists
