Customer Rating:      Summary: Great tool for trigger point therapy Comment: So I've owned this for less than one week. I have had neck, shoulder and lower back pain for quite some time. I have been in some kind of constant 24/7 pain in my lower back for the past year and a half, Chiropractic doesn't help. My shoulders and neck have been extremely stiff and painful for the past 6-7 months. I had an episode of vertigo in July due to it.
I was getting ready to have my doctor get me back into physical therapy where they have done TPT (trigger point therapy) on me before with great results. Then I bought this.
I know this is going to sound over the top, or maybe that I am exagerating, but I'm not. Working my trigger points several times a day I have all but eliminated the tightness and stiffness in my neck and my lower back pain is almost non-existent. But, you have to keep it up, not over do it, and do it consistently. That being said, two days after I received this, I went out and bought Clair Davies book, The Trigger Point Therapy Workbook. I recommend this because it helps to know what you are looking for and how to address it. There is A LOT to learn, and I figure if I am going to poke and prod around on myself then I want to have a good idea on what I should do and how I should do it. Being to physical therapy before I learned from them, too, and already had an idea of what I was looking for with trigger points. In general though, remember for TPT to work, the trigger point is generally located away from the site of where you are experiencing pain, and also located on the same side of the body.
Muscle wise, this is the best I have felt in a long time (and in such a short period of time) and I would recommend this tool. I would also recommend Clair Davies workbook (or any good TPT book) to go with it as a must have. Learn as much as you can so you can use it successfully.
Customer Rating:      Summary: No Knots Now with the Massage Cane Comment: This cane is perfect for taking care of the painful knots in unreachable places and to save your hands from strain. It enables you to massage the tender spots all over without creating more tension.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Does NOT work Comment: Sorry gang, this is a cheap piece of plastic that is very hard to align over the sore spot and hurts like the dickens when you do. Save yourself the money and slam your back into a door knob. The knob is bigger and would hurt less.
CONS:
Hard to use - It takes a lot of fumbling to find the sore spot. Think about it, you can't see the sore spot, so you have to find it using this big, awkward device. It's actually harder than you think it is because this thing is curved and huge.
Hurts - The same problem with finding the sore spot shows up when trying to press on the sore spot. It's really hard to control how hard you press on the store spot with this huge, clumsy thing. It's far too easy to dig in and really hurt yourself. Instead of hard plastic they should cushion the knobs so it isn't so painful. And even when you press right, it slips off the sore spot and you have to find it again.
Cheap plastic - It's made of the same kind of toy plastic you find in dollar stores. Not sure why it costs so much.
Design - Some of the reviewers talk about using this in the office. Not my office. The jokes kept coming in my office, and no one could use it with a straight face. It's hard to believe that anyone wouldn't be embarrassed bringing this thing into, much less actually using it in the office.
PROS:
Amazon has an excellent return policy.
Worth a few laughs in the office.
Customer Rating:      Summary: This is the real deal! Comment: I am so glad I bought this. I constantly have sore shoulders and a tight neck....this massage tool works great. It is amazing how much pressure you can apply without hardly any force at all. I really love it.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Great Comment: Awesome product! I never knew I would enjoy this so much! i had it shipped to work, and everyone was curious. I let them try it, and now everyone wants one. I love it and I recommend to everyone.
