The one day workshop covers all of the key techniques associated with sports taping using rigid and semi-rigid tape.
These are essential skills for any therapist looking to play an active role in the management of sports injuries and many musculoskeletal conditions. In addition to having the skills to tape sports injuries there are also techniques taught that will help to re-educate poor posture and the problems that are associated with it.
The skills gained will help employment opportunities within sport and also the private sector. All attendees will receive a certificate of attendance and a set of electronic notes with technique videos embedded in them which is an invaluable learning tool to refer back to once the course is complete.
On the course the following areas will be covered:
Plantar fascia
