Whether it’s bone spavin, OA flare-ups, soft tissue soreness, capped hock, or the horse that’s just always a little stiff behind until it warms up — the hock is a high-load joint that benefits enormously from continuous active support between treatments. This bundle gives you that support.\nThe Hock Support application uses 4-Way energy return tape to actively reduce the load the hock joint bears with every stride — not passive compression, but genuine biomechanical support that works continuously for as long as the tape is worn. The Circulation application simultaneously moves fluid through the joint and surrounding tissue, reducing inflammatory buildup and improving comfort.

Physical supplies ship separately.\nWhy Taping Works for Hock Problems\nHock injections reduce inflammation — but the joint still has to bear full load the moment the horse moves. EquiTecs 4-Way Tape stores and releases energy with every stride, actively sharing the load the hock would otherwise absorb alone. This reduces the mechanical stress that drives inflammation in the first place. The Circulation application works simultaneously to move fluid away from the joint continuously — the same benefit as a lymphatic massage, but working 24 hours a day instead of for the duration of a treatment session. Many owners report their horses staying comfortable significantly longer between injection cycles after consistent taping.\nIs This the Right Bundle?\n\nDiagnosed hock arthritis, bone spavin, or OA\nHorse on a hock injection cycle — looking to extend the interval or reduce dependence\nPost-injection support to help the joint hold the correction longer\nCapped hock or soft tissue swelling around the hock\nHorse that warms out of stiffness but is consistently tight behind\nHigh-mileage horses in disciplines with heavy hock loading (dressage, reining, jumping, barrel racing)\n\nDigital courses and protocol: instant access.

you’re a repeat customer who already knows this works… …this bundle is built to make the decision simple: everything you need, nothing you don’t.
Save your fingers
No DM, no email, no guessing. This is the exact Hock kit we’d tell you to buy anyway. Built for the common hock realities—arthritis/OA flare-ups, post-injection support, capped hock management, and “it’s always the hocks” soreness—so you can stop piecing it together and start following a plan.
What this bundle does (and doesn’t do)
Does: give you a clear, proven plan + the tools to apply it correctly during rehab/management
Doesn’t: leave you guessing. The taping technique is taught inside the included training, with clear steps and troubleshooting.
Included (digital + physical)
EFT Basics
Hock Support Application
Circulation Application
Hock Protocol
4-Way Stretch Tape 2" Color Pack (x1)
2-Way Stretch Tape 3" Black Single Roll (x1)
Equine Taping Scissors
Surface Preparation Towel
Built for horses (not adapted from human kinesiology tape)
Science-backed, field-tested protocols — clear and transparent
Designed to remove “did I buy the right stuff?” stress
Ships fast Mon–Fri
The cornerstone + the application + the protocol (that’s the difference)
Confidence first. Then results.
Hock problems are rarely “just the hock.” They’re often the receipt for something upstream or underneath: hoof balance, stifle mechanics, SI/back compensation, workload changes, footing, warm-up habits—pick your poison. And if you only chase the sore spot, you can end up on the same merry-go-round: flare-up → rest → back to work → flare-up.
This bundle is built for whole-horse problem solving, not a band-aid. The training teaches you what you’re looking at, what matters biomechanically, and how to apply support in a way that helps the horse move better while you address the why. The protocol gives you a clear path to reduce irritation and restore function—then graduate you out of “constant fixing” and into prevention mode (the only time we actually want you taping forever).
EFT Basic (the cornerstone): learn correct tape handling and technique so you can apply safely and effectively—without over-stretching, wasting tape, or second-guessing.
Application Library training: follow the exact step-by-step application for this issue, plus troubleshooting (so you know what to adjust if adhesion, sensitivity, or placement gets tricky).
Protocol: your simple roadmap for rehab or ongoing management—save it to your phone or print it for the barn.
Reapply with purpose: timing is guided by the protocol and your horse’s response, not random trial-and-error.
What’s included (and why it matters)
Everything you need in one package
Lifetime access to all courses
EFT Basic (Cornerstone Course) - The foundation that makes everything else work: tape handling, correct stretch, clean anchors, and the confidence to apply safely without second-guessing.
EFT Hock (Hock Course) - Teaches you how the hock works biomechanically, how to choose the right level of support, and how to troubleshoot so you’re not just “taping the sore spot.”
EFT Circulation (Application Library) - Supports fluid movement and comfort when swelling/inflammation are part of the picture—especially helpful during flare-ups and recovery phases.
4-Way Stretch Tape 2" Color Pack - The right tape for structural support applications—engineered specifically for horses (not repurposed human tape).
Surface Preparation Towel - Because prep isn’t optional. This helps you get clean, oil-free hair so your tape actually sticks and performs the way it’s designed to.
Equine Taping Scissors - Clean cuts matter (for comfort, durability, and professional-looking applications). These make prep fast and consistent.
Hock Protocol (Digital Protocol): Your step-by-step plan for hock problems (from mild soreness to more advanced cases), including when to add Circulation support and how to progress.
2-Way Stretch Tape 3" Black — Single Roll (x1) Used for circulation-style support and broader coverage when you need to address fluid and comfort around the area.
Who this bundle is for
Pros (yes, even pros): when you want the right supplies + training in one place, and you’d rather stop piecing things together
Hands-on horse owners who want to confidently support their horse between appointments and during rehab/management
Riders and trainers who need practical, repeatable support they can use in real barn life
Who it’s not for
Anyone looking for a one-time magic fix
What you can expect
A complete, field-tested setup (no guessing what to buy or what you’re missing)
Training that builds confidence: you’re not just buying products—you’re learning a skill you can use again and again
Lifetime access to your digital education (keep the course you purchased) plus the lasting value of the knowledge you gain—so each application gets easier, cleaner, and more effective over time
FAQ
Do I get access right away?
Yes. Your digital training is delivered immediately after purchase, and you’ll have lifetime access to the education you buy.
Is this a physical kit, digital training, or both?
Both. You’ll receive the physical supplies shipped to you, plus the digital training and protocol so you know exactly how to use what you bought.
Do I need experience to use this?
No. These bundles are built for pros and hands-on owners. EFT Basic is the cornerstone that teaches proper tape handling and technique so you can apply with confidence.
How long does the tape stay on?
It depends on your horse, prep, and the application. Your training covers wear time and when to reapply so you’re not guessing.
My tape never sticks—what’s the deal?
Most adhesion issues come down to overstretching and prep (oil, sweat, dirt, product residue). From Stick With Success (Amazon #1 Best Seller) — Rebecca Haddock, President & Owner, EquiTecs Equine Technologies Institute:
“If you’re stretching like you are in a rubber band stretching contest, the best prep in the world won’t help.” That’s why every bundle includes the basics and training to get clean, consistent applications. In 15 years of building horse-specific tape, Rebecca has yet to find a true adhesive failure—if it’s not sticking, it’s almost never the tape.
Is this a one-time fix?
No—this is a system you can repeat during rehab or ongoing management, based on your horse’s response.
What’s your return policy?
Tape can be returned within 30 days if it’s unopened and not damaged. Digital education is non-refundable due to immediate access.
