How Does RockTape Work?
​
​​
When applied correctly, RockTape’s unique elasticity causes the skin to form convolutions and wrinkle. This decompresses the tissue immediately below the skin, which is believed has three main effects:
​​
-
Fluid effect - improving blood and lymphatic flow in the taped area
-
Mechanical effect - improving the slide and glide between tissue layer
-
Neurological effect - altering the perception of pain and improving body awareness ​
