Bakslap began as a tribute to the founder's sister, Tess, who passed away from melanoma. Initially launched in 2019 as a sunscreen applicator for hard-to-reach places, it quickly found unexpected uses in aged care and rehabilitation. Feedback from these sectors highlighted its broader potential, leading to a shift in the brand's focus.

As demand from people with mobility issues grew, allied health professionals began recommending and purchasing Bakslap for their clients. They requested a professional-grade version, leading to the creation of the Bakslap Professionals applicator.
Co-designed with GPs, occupational therapists, and physiotherapists to better suit patients in aged care, disability support, and post-surgery recovery. It features a washable antimicrobial sponge, interchangeable loofah pad, and easy-open release pin, making it suitable for both clinical and home use.
