Advancing Pediatric Care with Elastic Therapeutic Taping

The Centre for Elastic Theraputic Taping in Paediatrics is a leading international advocacy for the use of ETT in Paediatrics.

Consultancy

The CETTP aims to promote the use of ETT in Paediatrics around the world. We are keen to advise and consult on the most effective methods to achieve this.

Sam worked with Esther de Ru on writing a chapter in a Polish book on taping, was on a European panel discussing Clinical Reasoning, and was ‘guest of honor’ at a Q&A parent session in Jaipur.

Conferences

Samantha has presented at the International Conference on Paediatric Spasticity, Orthopaedic, and Postural
Management
in Cork (Ireland), the Association of Paediatric Chartered Physiotherapists Annual Conference in London (co-presented with Esther), and at the First National Kinesio Taping Conference in Birmingham NEC

She has attended many Conferences in the UK and Europe in order to remain at the cutting edge of ETT research and practice. These include the Oslo Kinesio Conference (2015, pictured), Poland in 2019, and several APCP Annual Conferences in London.

Courses

With decades of experience between them, Esther de Ru and the tutors (Sam is a senior tutor) have written a hands on, practical course with in depth case studies to bring you the knowledge and experience to successfully tape children with complex neurological conditions.

ETT is a low cost adjunct to occupational and physiotherapy that can revolutionise treatment of paediatric conditions, both neurological and non-neurological. We are keen to bring our unique method – the skin approach – to your clinic or therapy department. We have worked with private individuals, independent private clinics around the world, as well as NHS Trusts in the UK.
