Togging 102 Beyond The Basics
Congratulations! You were able to get the tank and hipster on your kiddo and now you are ready to venture into the world of strapping. Here is your chance to learn about the difference between a split strap and TogRite. This is where you take the fundamentals from your PT or OT training and mimic your hands with the strapping.
