Rebecca Haddock is not teaching a repackaged human system with more adhesive and a horse on the label.
OIO Biomechanics was developed through decades of clinical fieldwork, observation, testing, and refinement in real equine cases. The work is rooted in equine anatomy, movement, force relationships, and practical outcomes. That matters when you are making decisions that affect comfort, compensation, performance, and recovery.
If you are the kind of practitioner who wants more than simplified taping education, this textbook gives you access to the deeper reasoning behind the modality.
How It Fits Into the EquiTecs System

If you are still new to EquiTecs, start with the EFT Basics Course or EFT Certification Course first.
FAQs
Is this a beginner textbook?
No. This is an advanced reference intended for qualified practitioners and serious professionals with a strong anatomy and movement foundation.
Is this the same as EFT?
No. OIO Biomechanics is a separate modality. It is not a progression of EFT and it is not interchangeable with it. It uses different tape, different reasoning, different objectives, and a more advanced level of clinical decision-making.
What makes this textbook different from a general taping book?
This textbook goes beyond application steps. It teaches biomechanics thinking, force concepts, regional logic, case analysis, and advanced problem-solving for practitioners working with more complex horses.
Will this help me in real cases?
Yes. The purpose of this textbook is to strengthen your ability to assess, interpret, and apply biomechanical concepts more intentionally in practice.
What format is it in?
This is a physical textbook designed to be used as a working reference in practice, study, and case review.
If you are ready to think differently about movement, compensation, and advanced taping strategy, this textbook belongs in your professional toolkit.
Add the OIO Biomechanics Textbook to your library and deepen your understanding of the modality behind more precise, more intentional equine care.
