Join experienced sports therapist and educator Tom Heeley for this hands-on 1-Day Taping for Sport Course, designed to equip therapists, coaches, and fitness professionals with the skills to confidently apply a range of taping techniques for injury management, prevention, and performance support. Throughout the day, you’ll learn how to use both elastic kinesiology tape and rigid sports tape effectively across a variety of joints and muscle groups. Tom’s clear and practical teaching style ensures you understand the theory behind each application—whether it's to aid proprioception, reduce swelling, support weak areas, or offload stressed tissues. You’ll get plenty of time to practise techniques for the ankle, knee, shoulder, wrist, and more, with expert guidance and feedback. The course also covers taping for common sports injuries, contraindications, and safe removal methods. Ideal for sports massage therapists, personal trainers, physios, and anyone working with active clients, this highly practical course provides immediately usable skills that can be applied in clinic, on the pitch, or in the gym. By the end of the day, you’ll leave with the knowledge and confidence to tape effectively, safely, and professionally—enhancing both recovery and performance for your clients.
