RockTape As a kid we were all told “Don’t Slouch!” But now as adults who spend the day hunched over a computer, we have even worse posture and the back and neck pain to prove it. We spend over $86 billion on back pain, often not finding a solution, but correcting the underlying postural issue that is at the root of many people’s pain can be simple, natural and inexpensive thanks to RockTape. Rocktape is a kinesiology tape, the same kind of tape you see professional athletes use. And while taping is common for sports injuries, many people don’t know that it can be an effective way to correct bad posture by training your body to be aligned properly.
