Dynamic Tape was developed by Australian Musculoskeletal Physiotherapist, Ryan Kendrick BPhty, MPhtySt. and Swedish Physiotherapist, Ylva Kendrick BSc(Physio). Ryan was awarded both of his degrees at the University of Queensland under the expert guidance of respected leaders in the field such as Professors Gwendolyn Jull, Carolyn Richardson, Paul Hodges, Michelle Sterling and Bill Vicenzino. Ryan’s clinical experience was divided between professional athletes and private musculoskeletal physiotherapy practice. He has worked as Physiotherapist to tennis player Greg Rusedski, former world number four and US Open finalist as part of the Dream Team assembled by Pat Cash to resurrect Rusedski’s career after a series of injuries saw him drop from four in the world to 73, with the tennis press writing his career off as a result. With a strong emphasis on rebuilding his game to reduce load on his body while improving performance along with a rehabilitation program to improve his body’s ability to withstand such load (fastest serve in the world at the time), Greg returned to his winning ways, climbing up the rankings and winning several more ATP tournaments during the remainder of his career which lasted another seven years. Ryan also spent several years at Essex County Cricket Club and has worked with European Tour Golfers and many Olympic and Commonwealth Games athletes, most recently with the Bronze medal winning Vanuatu Beach Volleyball women. Ryan has also been a clinical tutor in Musculoskeletal Physiotherapy on the Griffith University programme. Tissues don’t fail because of pain, they fail because of load. Aware that many of the conditions presenting in clinical practice were a result of overuse or more correctly overload, Ryan recognised that current taping products were ineffective at absorbing load or contributing energy to reduce the workload of the musculotendinous unit. They were also ineffective at modifying the biomechanics whilst still permitting the full range of motion necessary to perform the complex skills required in many athletic pursuits. At the same time, Ylva who graduated from Umeå University whose work centred on complex paediatric and neurological physiotherapy recognised the benefits of taping in this way to improve mobility and function in this population. After several years of development to address the limitations of existing taping products, Dynamic Tape was launched commercially in 2010. It is an adjunctive clinical tool in the management of muscle strains and ligament sprains, overuse and biomechanical injuries like achilles and patellar tendinopathy, plantar fasciitis, rotator cuff pathology, tennis elbow, shin splints etc. but also equally applicable in Paediatrics, Neurology, Hand Therapy and even in Respiratory care. Due to the clinical effectiveness, in the first twelve months alone distribution expanded from Australia to include New Zealand, Norway, Sweden, Denmark, UK, Germany, Czech Republic, Ireland, Switzerland, USA, Canada, Belgium, Netherlands, South Africa and continues to grow rapidly now reaching almost fifty countries with a network of highly qualified instructors from Physiotherapy, Athletic Training, Chiropractic, Hand Therapy, Registered Massage Therapy, Medicine and Veterinary disciplines. Why is it called Biomechanical Tape? Biomechanics is defined as “the study of the mechanical laws relating to the movement or structure of living organisms.” Dynamic Tape has been designed to allow an external force to act upon the levers of the body. If a genuine force can be applied (and this requires correct application), the forces that the body must generate are modified accordingly. For example, if Dynamic Tape can provide a decelerating force to someone’s follow through in their tennis serve, the load on the muscles, capsule and ligaments of the body normally charged with decelerating the arm is reduced by the same amount of force that the tape contributes.

Of course, it can also be laminated into a PowerBand to create a very strong resistance and recoil when required. AVAILABLE IN BULK 101 FOOT ROLL Black Tattoo- Very Strong The BLACK TATTOO offers a slightly higher resistance and recoil to the BEIGE TATTOO and is the more commonly used product. It has very good energy storage and release capacity which is enhanced as a PowerBand. This makes it ideal for musculotendinous applications like muscle tears and tendinopathies and also for large multi-joint applications. AVAILABLE IN BULK 101 FOOT ROLL ECO Gray Tattoo- Extra Strong The ECO is another world first and is made from recycled plastic bottles using patent pending technology to provide much more resistance much sooner in the range (higher elastic modulus) but with slightly less recoil than BEIGE or BLACK TATTOO. This makes it ideal for applications where there is very little movement but high resistance is required. NOT AVAILABLE IN BULK Read more CORRECT Dynamic Tape acts mechanically like a spring to strongly decelerate or assist motion to improve movement patterns. From foot drop to football, Dynamic Tape is a trusted ally for leading athletes, clinicians and patients. Read more PROTECT This can help to reduce load on injured or overworked structures like a muscle strain, ankle sprain, tennis elbow or plantar fasciitis and can assist where weakness is present e.g. after ACL repair to address risk factors associated with pain or re- injury.

For others it might be to run marathon. Effects can be immediate, observable and measurable. Read more
