Review on πŸ’œ The Index Knobber II (Purple) by Pressure Positive Co.: A Powerful Pressure Point Massager! by Ryuta Marantz

Revainrating 5 out of 5

This massage therapist recommends

I am a licensed masseuse; Although using the Indexknobber is not a substitute for a professional human massage, I recommend this article (and/or another article by the same people, Jacknobber) to my clients because I use it myself. It's great for relaxing hard-to-reach places. If you've used a foam roller for tight muscles, you may have given up after a try or two because, frankly, it HURTS. Foam rollers are great and I recommend tgem too, but not as a starting point; too difficult to control the pressure. An indexknobber or jacknobber is easier to use and gentler on fabric than a foam roller, so it's a good place to start. After a few weeks of regular use, you can use the foam roller without pain. *Nubs are not just a precursor to using foam rollers. They're portable, so you can use them at your desk to relieve neck, shoulder, or back pain (tip: use them on your neck and shoulders to stretch and relax your pecs [chest, just below your collarbone]. ; for your lower back, use it on the hamstring [bottom of thigh, just above knee] and buttocks) over clothing. I often use mine for myself. I sometimes use one on clients to help me press harder on knots without hurting my thumbs.

Pros
  • WORKS FOR THERAPISTS. Therapists who use the Original Pointer II when treating patients find it extremely helpful in applying precise pressure to soft tissue trigger points.
Cons
  • So far so good
