In Part A, you’ll be introduced to the fundamentals of Biomechanical Taping™, the theory underpinning it, the mechanisms, the foundations of developing techniques and building on your clinical reasoning. You’ll also learn a variety of techniques (over 30 in online resource) mostly for the peripheral joints so that you can start Dynamic Taping immediately.
In Part B, you’ll build on these skills, learning more advanced theory and integrating, research, biomechanics and pain science into your understanding. You’ll learn advanced clinical reasoning and problem solving including taping of mechanosensitive neural tissue, pelvis, ribs and SIJ, along with taping based on symptom modification procedures.
Part C will expand the foundations building your knowledge base so that you can develop Dynamic Tape Global applications that are tailored to the needs of your patient. You’ll be introduced to the Kinetic Control framework for assessing and managing movement control which provides clear indications for when Dynamic Taping may be indicated and how to evaluate its impact. We are also building out specific modules e.g. pre/post natal, Dynamic Taping for tendinopathy following a KC framework and more. Exemptions may apply so please contact us if you have undertaken this training previously.
