5.0 out of 5 starsThis works excellent for working out trigger points and muscle knots
Reviewed in the United States on February 27, 2024
I have trigger points that flare up over time in my shoulder blade, rotator cuff, neck area, peck, and rhomboid, due to an old injury. When the entire area becomes inflamed I have intense daily pain due to it . The only thing that has worked thus far is deep tissue massage. Normally it takes three massages at $130 per hour for any lasting relief. I ordered the cane due to a lengthy wait for a massage appointment, hoping that it might give me some temporary relief. After some experimenting and maneuvering I was able to get the cane working effectively in all the areas I just described. It not only worked effectively but the relief was amazing!
What you need to know to work it effectively. Warm the muscle that you're working on with light rubbing or warm compresses first. Crosshatch the trigger point, moving the ball on the one up and down over the trigger point three times and then side to side three times with steady pressure. Then hold the ball of the cane on the center of the trigger point with moderate pressure and use a deep breathing technique. Ice the area for no more than 12 minutes after using the cane.
Not only do I highly recommend it I also wish I would have found this sooner. I have had lasting relief for over a month without using the cane sense. This saved me over $360 in massage appointments.
