For horses with carpus (equine knee) instability, this application teaches biomechanics support logic for carpal overextension (hyperextension)—including rehab, post‑procedure/post‑op support, arthritis management, and prevention—using EquiTecs 4‑Way Stretch Tape (multidirectional stretch) for safer, more reproducible outcomes.

EquiTecs EFT Carpus (Knee) Support Application
A 24-minute, on-demand digital course teaching the Equine Functional Taping (EFT) protocol for carpus (knee) support. Learn to stabilize the carpus after injury, surgery, or for chronic joint issues, and provide immediate comfort and relief. Instantly accessible via the EquiTecs App (Apple, Google, and web). Lifetime access included.

For true support/stability outcomes, this application is built around the EquiTecs biomechanics system:

No physical product included. Tape must be purchased separately.
Yes. Carpus is the clinical term; knee is the common term. This application is for carpus (equine knee) support.
This application is built for both carpal overextension (hyperextension) and general support. In the course, Rebecca will explain how to vary the application.
For support/stability, you need EquiTecs 4‑Way Stretch Tape (multidirectional stretch). 2‑Way tape is used for functional goals (decompression, circulation/lymphatics, neuro, fascia, muscle)—not structural support.
Yes. For those cases, this application should be taped first with 4‑Way 2" tape, and then directly over the top with 4‑Way 3" tape. Rebecca will go over this inside the education, but make sure you have both sizes on hand.
Yes. This is commonly used as part of arthritis management when the goal is added support and improved stability.
If the knee still feels unstable, continues to drop into extension, or the horse can’t maintain position under load, you may need to reassess positioning, tape size/layering, and the overall support plan.
Yes. If the application is done correctly (as Rebecca teaches in the education), you should often see an immediate change in biomechanics—the horse will look better right away. That doesn’t mean the underlying structures are magically healed; it means the tape is doing what it’s supposed to do: providing the support the soft tissue can’t fully provide yet.
And that’s the goal—because the more the horse can move in a biomechanically correct way, the better and faster the soft tissue can heal and condition.
Most failed “knee taping” attempts come from using the wrong tape type for the goal. This is a support/stability application built around 4‑Way multidirectional stretch and biomechanics positioning—so it’s designed to produce a more reproducible support outcome.
