Advanced Kinesiology Taping Practitioner Certification – Aaron Crouch

Advanced Kinesiology Taping Practitioner Certification – Aaron Crouch

Until now, choices were limited if you wanted to learn how to use kinesiology tape. You had to read a book or attend an expensive class that locked you into one way of applying tape.

Not anymore. Taught by industry-leading experts in movement assessment and therapy, these hands-on certification programs equip you with all the skills you’ll need to begin taping tomorrow. Say goodbye to agonizing over muscular origins and insertions and memorizing directions of tape. Say hello to a practical framework of ‘taping movement, not muscles.

Advanced Kinesiology Taping Practitioner Certification builds on the fundamentals with innovative applications that integrate the latest neuroscience research. Master advanced treatments that utilize myofascial pathways to address common sports injuries and improve athletic performance.

1. Review fascial chain anatomy and function
2. Discuss the kinetic chain approach to kinesiology taping
3. Apply movement screening techniques for identifying faulty motor patterns
4. Compare taping techniques for enhancing faulty motor patterns in breathing, squatting, lunging, stepping, pushing, and rolling movements
5. Demonstrate advanced taping strategies for neuromuscular retraining of performance chains
6. Combine taping, movement assessment, and corrective exercises to address common sports injuries and enhance athletic performance
