RockTape being used by Dr Gert Ferreira
California - USA, was the birth place of RockTape. The founder, Greg van den Dries, is a sport lover, loves to run, cycle and swim and with all of these sports there are always injuries involved. After a visit to a physical therapist they applied some kinesiology tape and he felt so good he started to research his "own" tape and that was the birth of RockTape.
