Advanced practitioner-level biomechanics education for professionals who need more than basic taping.
  • Advanced biomechanics modality for qualified practitioners
  • 25 CE hours
  • Built around force reduction, force addition, leverage, traction, and positional influence
  • Uses 4-way tape only
  • Separate modality from EFT, not a progression or interchangeable system
  • Designed for complex support, deformity, dysfunction, and injury cases
  • Built by Rebecca Haddock from decades of fieldwork and application
  • No true direct competitor in the biomechanics education space
  • Lifetime access to training


This is not just another continuing education course. OIO Biomechanics is a distinct advanced modality designed for practitioners doing higher-level biomechanical work. If you are looking for a direct comparison, there really is not one. This course stands in its own category.

Learn from the originator of the modality

Learn from Rebecca Haddock, the world’s expert in equine taping, founder of EquiTecs, and creator of the original OIO Biomechanics system.

OIO was created, tested, and refined through real clinical fieldwork to help practitioners observe movement more accurately, interpret what they are seeing more intelligently, and optimize outcomes with a structurally different taping approach.

If you want the highest level of education in this category, this is where that path begins.

Who this course is for

This course is built for qualified equine healthcare professionals who are ready for a more advanced level of application.

It is appropriate for practitioners such as:

  • veterinarians
  • chiropractors
  • rehabilitation professionals
  • licensed or credentialed bodywork professionals
  • certified EquiTecs practitioners advancing their skill set

This course is not open to trainers, competitive riders, or horse owners who are not healthcare professionals. Pre-qualification is required before enrollment.

Why OIO is different

OIO is a completely separate modality from EFT.

It uses a different taping logic, a different application strategy, and a different clinical purpose. Where EFT focuses on functional taping objectives, OIO is built around biomechanic influence, force reduction, force addition, leverage, traction, and movement optimization.

This is advanced work for practitioners who need more than symptom-level support. It is for professionals who want to better understand structural dynamics, tissue loading, compensation, and how to influence movement at a deeper level.

What changes in practice

This is where advanced education becomes a serious clinical advantage.OIO helps practitioners:

  • assess movement, posture, and compensation with more precision
  • identify dysfunction patterns that are often missed with surface-level evaluation
  • apply biomechanic taping to influence support, leverage, traction, and force distribution
  • combine taping with corrective exercise and retraining strategies
  • work toward more durable, root-level change rather than short-term symptom management

For the right practitioner, this is not just another modality. It changes how you see the horse, how you assess the problem, and how you build a plan.

What You’ll Learn

Inside the OIO Biomechanics Course, practitioners learn:

  • how to systematically observe equine movement, posture, and compensation patterns
  • how to interpret the biomechanical story behind what they are seeing
  • how to apply Rebecca Haddock’s OIO system using true biomechanic taping principles
  • how force reduction, force addition, leverage, and traction influence movement outcomes
  • how to combine taping with corrective exercises and movement retraining
  • how to think through cases with more structure and clinical intent
  • how to apply the system through real-horse demonstrations and practical examples

This is designed to help practitioners move beyond theory and into more advanced clinical reasoning.

CE hours, certification, and commitment

This course is currently being evaluated for 25 continuing education hours through:

  • RACE
  • AVCA
  • IVCA

Additional approvals are planned over the coming months, including:

  • NBCAAM
  • NCBTMB
  • IAAMB

The course material itself takes a solid 25 hours to complete.

Certification is a separate professional achievement and requires:

  • completion of the full course
  • a digital exam
  • 10 live case studies using real horses, not mock cases
  • case study breakdown of:
  • 3 traction
  • 3 leverage
  • 3 force reduction
  • 1 practitioner choice

Because this is practitioner-level work built around real application, certification can take up to one year to complete.

What is included

Your enrollment includes:

  • the OIO Biomechanics Course
  • practitioner-level education in the Observe • Interpret • Optimize system
  • real-horse demonstrations and practical application examples
  • structured instruction on movement assessment and biomechanic taping
  • access through the EquiTecs app, the same as all EquiTecs education

Why this course carries weight

This is not casual continuing education.OIO is built for practitioners who are serious about improving how they assess, reason through, and influence equine movement dysfunction. It is advanced education designed for professionals who want a more exact, more strategic, and more clinically useful way to work.That is what gives this course value. It does not just teach a technique. It teaches a way of seeing and solving problems at a higher level.

Why practitioners trust Rebecca Haddock

Rebecca Haddock is not simply teaching an existing method. She created this modality.

Her work is known for being science-driven, horse-specific, and clinically grounded. As the founder of EquiTecs and the creator of OIO, she has built a system that gives qualified practitioners access to a level of biomechanic taping education they cannot get anywhere else.

Mini FAQ

Is this the same as EFT?

No. OIO is a separate modality with a different purpose, different tape logic, and a more advanced biomechanical focus.

Do I need to be a healthcare professional to enroll?

Yes. This course is restricted to qualified equine healthcare professionals. Pre-qualification is required before enrollment.

Is this a beginner course?

No. This is advanced practitioner education designed for professionals who already have a clinical foundation and want to work at a higher level.

How long does the course take?

The course materials take approximately 25 hours to complete. Certification may take up to one year because it requires live case studies, course completion, and a digital exam.

How do I access the course?

You can access the course through the EquiTecs app, just like the rest of your EquiTecs education.

Start with the modality built for deeper clinical work

If you are a qualified equine healthcare professional ready to move beyond surface-level taping and into true biomechanic assessment and application, this is your next step.
