RockTape Treatments

RockTape Helps You Move With Confidence

Has an injury made you worry more about your ability to move? Get your confidence back with RockTape treatments provided by the Leasenby Clinic.

RockTape is a latex-free Kinesiology tape that allows for a full range of motion while supporting the involved area. RockTape is useful in acute, sub-acute, and chronic stages of injury healing and active rehabilitation. It can be used to enhance movement and proprioception as a prevention method in sports and improve recovery during training. Taping applications typically last three to five days.

RockTape has Three Main Effects:

Pain Mitigation

RockTape relieves pressure from nerve endings responsible for pain (nociception).

Decompression

RockTape improves circulation to and from injured tissues and reduces swelling.

Increase Neurosensory Input

RockTape stimulates skin sensory receptors and receptors that respond to movements and positions of the body (proprioceptors). These receptors send information to the brain faster than pain receptors, which allows for a down-regulation of the perception of pain. This also increases awareness of self is space for rehabilitation purposes.
