ROCKTAPE
Why was it created?
Rocktape was created for the heat of competition. We knew that first hand medical tape would fail under extreme conditions, so RockTape developed a stronger, stretchier and stickier kinesiology tape.
How does RockTape work
RockTape microscopically lifts the skin away from the muscle and fascia, which decompresses the area and promotes blood flow. RockTape also signals the central nervous system throug the skin's nerves, which provides powerful feedback to minimise pain and cue form.
RockTape's unique elasticity causes the skin to form convulations and wrinkle. This decompresses the tissue's immediately below the skin. It is believed that this has three main effects:
- Fluid effect - improving blood and lympathic flow
- Mechanical effect - improving the slide and glide between tissue layers
- Neurological effect - altering the perception of pain and improving body awareness.
What are the benefits
- Relieves swelling by creating more space for congested and compressed capillaries, lymph vessels, arteries and veins.
- Increased blood flow delays fatigue, speeding up recovery and enabling you to go stronger, longer.
- Increases awareness of your body position to help maintain proper posture and form.
