Our new RockPods course applies a modern, manual therapy and pain science take on the use of “cupping”. Cupping creates a decompressive force in the tissues immediately under the cup, with a compressive force created around the rim of the cup. This creates a different stimulus to the tissues and the nervous system and for some people can be a relaxing way of treating tight or sore areas.
Our RockPods course teaches concepts that can be applied to many regions of the body. It is currently available online and we will add the in-person version if there is sufficient demand.
The RockPods, once attached to the skin, can be manipulated by the therapist (“external glide”), through the patient moving (“internal glide”), or a combination of both. The RockPods can be used with varying levels of decompression and, by adding in movement of the patient, can be a more “active” intervention that involves the patient.
The recorded video you receive is 45 minutes in length. However, the time taken to complete the content depends on how much time you spend practicing the applications in the videos practical segments. We estimate the total time to complete the course is 1 hour, and that is the amount of time we put on the electronic certificates we send to customers on completion of the course.

Physiotherapy
I just purchased some rockpods and completed the online course. I found it great and easy to follow. Having the video made it easier to follow in real time and you could see the positions to place your clients into. It was great finding out exactly how rock ponds work and gives you the ability to pass this information on to your clients. Great course! Thanks!

I have just completed this online course and amazed at the easy to follow instructions on the use of Rock Pods and the benefits to the body. To date, the use of the pods has helped so much in assisting client needs and relieving acute pain. An excellent addition to Rocktape, Floss and Tools! Thanks for the course, brilliant!

I recently purchased RockPods and completed the online course. This will add a new dimension to my soft tissue work and I will be using the movement based techniques in my client’s rehabilitation programs. It will be a great addition to my practice.
