Massager (Green, Single)

Update: August 23, 2017 I've acquired more massaging tools including the Casada Massage Cushion Maxiwell III with Jade Stone and Heating The Casada is terrific for *massage*. It can unknot muscles cramped tight enough to cause a pinched nerve. Once I feel pain starting if I dedicate 6 hours to massage sessions with the Casada (split into 3 days), it can prevent a pinched nerve incident. Can the thera cane do this? Only if I use the cane everyday to prevent attacks. I haven't got the dedication to do this.If I try for 3 2-hour sessions I get blisters. So I save it for targeted efforts. Here, it beats all other devices because they cannot hit the spot. As far as I can tell, you can't really wear out the Thera Cane. As a matter of fact, a therapist gave me a second Thera Cane as part of the pain treatment class. Talk about overkill. End update. Right now, I've got five self massage tools, four of them recommended by therapists: a foam roller, various rubbery balls from sports that I don't play, a plastic roller encased in a handy grip, a vibrating heat pad for car/chairs (not recommended by anybody including me) and the theracane. The theracane is the most effective, period. It is easy to use. The foam roller is an OK. The roller is good for large areas like my back but awkward for many other areas. Unfortunately, it takes such a long time to roll out cramps in my back that I start to pick up cramps in my arms and legs from supporting myself. I compromise by loosening up with a bit of rolling and using the cane for the heavy duty work. The cane lets you really use your muscles to hit spots, even the ones you can reach with your hands, so it is much more effective plus it saves wear and tear on your hands. I received the theracane and started using it immediately with the help of the enclosed booklet. My stiff knee started to loosen with the first session and six days later I noticed I had stopped limping. I had ordered the Trigger Point Therapy Workbook by Clare and Amber Davies to go with the cane. It arrived 3 days later because of a long weekend. The book was very helpful. I had a vague idea of which points to start with because I could feel the knot in the big muscle in the calf but the workbook is very precise and now I'm working on some of the smaller hidden muscles. I also tried some of the other sections in the workbook. I have TMJ but it's not really a problem. My jaw gives the occasional click with no pain. I tried some of the trigger points and after one session, one side of my jaw is click free! The other side still clicks slightly. Sigh, there is no magic bullet. I guess I'll have to repeat that section. Overall, the theracane massager with the workbook is better than the run-of-the-mill masseuse. You'll need someone very well-trained to do a better job.

This is a leverage device that is shaped to maximize the amount of pressure you can put on specific locations on your body. I have chronic back pain below my left shoulder blade. It is impossible for me to reach with a massage gun. Likewise, paying someone else to massage that area is expensive, and often insufficient in terms of amount of pressure, and frequency of going back to get the area massaged. This Theracane solves all of those problems. With a very small amount of force, I can leverage the device to put a lot of pressure on the tight knotted muscles on my back, better than any human with their bare hands can do. I can do this as often as I want, and I don't have to shell out money each time I do it. I would like to mention that there are some on here who complained that the device broke on them. One review mentioned that his cane broke in three spots, and the third piece shot out like a bullet, which he was glad did not hit his sleeping wife. I can safely say that this man did not use the product correctly. Once again I will say: not a lot of force is needed to effectively put a lot of pressure on a point on your body. Leverage will do all the work for you. The amount of force he must of used to snap the device and even have the third broken shard "shoot out like a bullet" is improper. You do not need to muscle the device, and in fact if you do, you may break it - it is plastic after all. High quality and durable plastic. But plastic nonetheless. The Theracane should never experience a lot of force put upon it by the user. The amount of pressure put on your muscle is a result of the leverage of the device - and of your technique using the device - multiplying the amount of force you put into the device. Ergo, it is my experience that a lot of pressure was put on my body without having to use very much force at all, and it is likewise my belief that the device breaking has to do with improper use of the Theracane, and not a lot to do with the durability of the device. Follow the instructions should you buy this thing, and adhere to them. If you do, you shouldn't have any issues with the device breaking. Do not put too much force on this Theracane. A little force goes a long way when a leverage multiplier is involved. The pain in my back was unbearable. I am so very glad I purchased the Theracane. I was actually getting depressed, because the pain lasted for years. Only now can I effectively reduce - and perhaps even one day soon eliminate - my back pain.

Hits the spot every time guaranteeing relief.

期待通り。重宝してます。

Originale Thera-Cane. Il migliore bastone da massaggio dei trigger point. Diffidate dalle cinesate che costano qualche euro in meno, non ne vale la pena. Infatti è fondamentale non solo il materiale con cui è fatto il bastone, ma anche le dimensione delle "punte" arrotondate. Questo bastone, oltre ad essere fatto di un ottimo materiale che dà subito l'impressione di solidità, ha il giusto grado di flessibilità. Può sembrare ininfluente, invece quando andrete a massaggiare i vari trigger point sulla schiena, se il bastone non "cede" quel giusto, ci farete male. Il bastone arriva con un pieghevole con indicati i trigger point e degli esempi di utilizzo nei vari punti del corpo, ma secondo me è da cestinare. Infatti per chi non vuole farsi male consiglio il libro di Davies, il manuale della terapia dei trigger point. In questo libro troverete una mappa sia dei trigger point e soprattutto come va fatto l'auto massaggio senza farsi del male

J'étais un peu réservée à cause du prix mais la canne est conforme, solide et très pratique à utiliser. Moi qui souffre régulièrement de contractures et de torticolis et qui devais me contorsionner pour me masser le dos, je ne pourrai plus m'en passer ! Bref, ce n'est pas un gadget, c'est un investissement.

I liked the Thera cane - it needs some practiseut works well when you get used to it
