Taping (Farncine or anyone with info)
Re: Taping (Farncine or anyone with info)
My daughter's OT gets the Leuko tape from a medical distributer...North Coast I think. Be sure to get the coverall tape that goes underneath the Leuko tape. It helps protect the skin...although I also put milk of magnesia on her skin first.

Update
Thanks for all the great input form everybody. I had mentioned to the therapist about the possiblity of taping and misunerstood their reccomendation. We are going to do the Kinseo taping to try to improve range, winging is minor now, we will tape for winging later on if it does not improve. Tommorow the PT is coming out to show me and the OT how to tape. I will take some digital camera pictures and put them and any other info I get on my website and post the address here next week after I get it done (Good Lord willing and the server doesn't crash)Thanks again to everyone.
