    Taping technique for Metatarsus Adductus

    Hi everyone,
    I have a big number of patients presenting with metatarsus adductus between 18 months and 3 years that were not treated as infants or have a relapse. I find they do not tolerate stretching or tickles (eversion stimulation) well at this age and wedging the shoes at the hallux does not always work. I have experimented with taping the foot across limiting the metatarsals from adducting. It seems to work for 60-70% of my patients. Has anyone else used this and is there any articles I should be reading?
    Your thoughts would be much appreciated.
