Treating irritable IT Band with RockFloss, RockBlade and RockTape

I've been a staunch follower of RockTape's evolution for several years. Knowing how, why and when to apply these treatments is sometimes, knowing what to do can get a bit confusing, hopefully this helps.

Nobody has every explained to me that a tight IT band compresses the knee but I had a feeling, thanks so much!!

No one disputes the efficacy of this approach, do they? This makes sense, and I am sure people are seeing results.

What causes the it band syndrome? And how can I prevent it?

[@gerryandrews5935]

The IT Band is the tendon that connects the Gluteus muscles and the muscle on the front of the hip, the Tensor Fascia Latae, to the side of the knee. Tension in the IT band creates pain at the point of insertion onto the side of the knee. This is often due to triggerpoints or knots in the the muscles of the IT band.
