1. Supporting the arm/leg in a comfortable position (having the main muscles slightly flexed if possible)place the tail of the bandage on the inside of the elbow/knee and wrap around 1 1/2 times, or more to cover the joint.
2.Pass the bandage around the elbow/knee joint to the inner side of the upper arm. Make a diagonal turn around the upper arm, covering half of the bandage from the first turn.
3. Take the bandage from the inner side of the upper arm to just below the elbow joint. Make one diagonal turn around the forearm, to cover the lower half of the bandage from the first straight turn.
4. Continue to bandage diagonally above and below the joint in a figure-eight, steadily extending the bandaging by covering approx. 2/3 of the previous layer each time.
5. Finish off by making twostraight turns and securing the end.
