Rocktape  is a brand of Kinesio tape that we are starting to use in our office. It is a high performance brand of traditional kinesio tape. It is fantastic for treating common sports injuries like shin splints, plantar fasciitis and runner’s knee. Rocktape also can increase endurance by promoting blood flow during an athletic event. When applied properly, ROCKTAPE lifts the skin away from the muscle, which promotes blood flow. Faster blood flow means more oxygen and more lymph drainage, which helps remove lactic acid. ROCKTAPE can be worn up to 5 days. It is 100% organic cotton and can be worn while swimming or in the shower. Kinesio tape will help promote tissue healing and facilitate movement to get you back in the game. You now see athletes from around the world sporting the brightly colored tape on national television, from Lance Armstrong, to Venus Williams, to Karri Walsh.
