Built on Truth. Backed by Science. Integrity You Can Feel.

Equine functional taping course for horse carpus support, knee arthritis, and post-op joint rehabilitation.

20 CE hours. No prerequisites. Real clinical value.

The EFT Certification Course includes 20 CE hours and is a Preferred Educator with:

  • RACE
  • IAAMB
  • NCBTMB

No prerequisites are required.

If you are already in practice, this gives you a modality you can integrate immediately. If you are looking to begin your equine healthcare career, this provides a solid, credible place to start.

Why practitioners choose EquiTecs

Because practitioners do not need more theory. They need education that helps them create better outcomes.

EquiTecs Functional Taping is:

  • Horse-specific (engineered for equine biomechanics)
  • Protocol-driven (objective → method → markers of success)
  • Not adapted from human kinesiology taping

That means you are not just learning where to put tape. You are learning how to think through the horse in front of you, choose the right tape and approach, and apply with more confidence, precision, and consistency.

EquiTecs EFT hamstring relaxation course to relieve tight muscles and chronic horse SI joint pain.

What changes in practice

This is where functional taping stops being interesting theory and starts becoming a clinically useful tool.

When practitioners understand how to use EquiTecs correctly, they are better equipped to support outcomes the research is already pointing toward, including:

  • reduced pain and decreased swelling after surgery and injury, helping support recovery more efficiently
  • increased performance and reduced fatigue, especially in horses where movement quality and workload matter
  • improved prognosis in neurological cases, where better support and input can influence function
  • longer-term positive effects on soft tissue, including muscle and fascia
  • improved joint, tendon, and ligament support, especially where stability and mechanical assistance matter
  • better management of compensation patterns, so practitioners can address more than the obvious symptom

This matters because practitioners are not looking for another trendy add-on. They are looking for tools that help them create better outcomes, support the horse more completely, and make their work hold longer.

What is included in the course

This certification is built to give practitioners more than surface-level instruction.

Inside the EFT Certification Course, practitioners receive:

  • comprehensive education on the science, reasoning, and application of EquiTecs Functional Taping
  • horse-specific instruction on how and why horses respond differently to tape
  • training on objectives, tape choice, stretch, placement, and expected outcomes
  • guidance on when to use 2-way versus 4-way tape
  • application training for support, decompression, muscle function, fascia, circulation, and neurological influence
  • markers of success, signs of incorrect application, and troubleshooting guidance
  • structured coursework designed for real-world clinical use
  • certification requirements including case studies and an exam
  • lifetime access to the course
  • ongoing updates as protocols and education evolve

This is designed to help practitioners not only learn the modality, but actually use it with confidence in practice.

Optional In‑Person Practicum (Add‑On)

For practitioners who want hands-on refinement and faster confidence in the field.

  • Live feedback on placement, anchors, and tension
  • Skill checks for clinical decision-making (what to use, why, and when)
  • Ideal for vets, chiropractors, bodyworkers, and rehab professionals integrating EFT into practice

In-Person Practicum (Add-On)

Built for the realities of practice

For equine vets, vet techs, chiropractors, bodyworkers, and rehab professionals, time matters. CE credits matter. Client trust matters. Outcomes matter.

That is why this is not casual education.

This is a structured certification built to help you use taping with purpose, communicate your reasoning more clearly, and bring a higher level of skill into your work.

Why this education carries weight

EquiTecs does not hand out credentials for watching videos.

Practitioners complete the education, submit case studies, and pass an exam. The standard is higher because the expected outcome is higher.

This is education designed to create practitioners who can produce repeatable results, not just collect information.

Why practitioners trust Rebecca Haddock

Rebecca Haddock is the creator of EquiTecs EFT and a recognized expert in equine functional taping and biomechanics.

Her work is known for being science-driven, horse-specific, and clinically grounded—built through decades in the field, ongoing research, and thousands of real case applications.


She is also a #1 bestselling author in Equine Medicine and the force behind the most structured, outcome-driven equine taping education available.

If you want the highest level of equine taping education available, there is no better place to start.

Why skeptical practitioners still convert here

Good practitioners should be skeptical.

They want to know whether the modality is effective, whether the education is credible, and whether the results are real.

That is exactly why EquiTecs is built on:

  • current clinical research
  • thousands of real-world cases
  • horse-specific methodology
  • objective-driven protocols
  • structured certification standards
  • practical application, not hype

This is not recycled theory. It is education built to follow clinical data and produce real-world outcomes.

Is this kinesiology taping for horses?

No. EquiTecs EFT is the evolution of kinesiology taping for horses. Kinesiology taping began as a 1970s theory—and the method largely hasn’t evolved even as research has shown inconsistent results.


EFT was built by following the research and the failures in the field: repeated application, measured outcomes, and thousands of real case studies to identify what worked, what didn’t, and what had to change. The result is a horse-specific, objective-based system—engineered tape + engineered technique—designed to produce repeatable outcomes, not “sometimes it helps.”

Is there an in-person option?

Yes. An Optional In‑Person Practicum (Add‑On) is available for hands-on refinement, placement checks, and live feedback.
