RockTape

RockTape is considered one of the best Kinesiology tapes on the market today, proven by it affiliation with the Crossfit® games where athletes can be seen regularly wearing it.

Unlike traditional athletic tape that binds and doesn’t stretch, RockTape does stretch and is engineered to mimic the natural movement of human skin. RockTape stretches up to 180% of its original length but has amazing ‘snap-back’ or recovery, which gives it a performance advantage over other tapes.

It can be used to treat sports and non-sports injuries including back pain, runners knee and plantar fasciitis to name a few.

RockBlades®

RockBlades are used in a treatment known as ‘Instrument Assisted Soft Tissue Mobilisation’ (IASTM).

This is a popular treatment of myofascial adhesions or scar tissue as the blades allow you to identify the point in the tissue that requires the most attention. RockBlades may be used as an alternative to massage.

RockPods®

Myofascial cupping has been a therapeutic treatment since the early 19th century. It gained attention recently after athletes began to appear with their backs being covered in purple circles.

The basic premise of cupping is to allow a suction approach to the soft tissue, this allows the decompression to these structures while also allowing the therapist to manually slide and glide the tissues below the skin.
