ROCKTAPE Announces Availability of PowerTaping Manual
(October 5, 2009 — Los Gatos, CA) ROCKTAPE, the leader in kinesiology tape for athletes, has announced the availability of its newest product, the PowerTaping ™ manual. The PowerTaping method “tapes movements, not muscles”(tm).

ROCKTAPE’s PowerTaping manual describes the techniques, applications and benefits of using Rocktape to promote performance. The manual is a collaboration between Greg van den Dries, a certified USA cycling coach and founder of Rocktape, and Dr. Steven Capobianco, a doctor of Chiropractic medicine and instructor at the Palmer College of Chiropractic. Dr. Capobianco is a former Ironman participant and Chiropractor to top professional endurance athletes, including Shelley Olds and Becky Lavelle.

PowerTaping is based on concepts popularized by Thomas W. Myers LMT, NCTMB, ARP in his book “Anatomy Trains”. Building on this obvious yet largely overlooked concept of muscles acting as a chain, PowerTaping’s revolutionary technique uses the “movement pattern” concept.
