Self-Help for
Sore or Stiff Muscles

There are some tools that we recommend to patients on a regular basis, as part of a specific, personalized, prescribed home exercise and self-treatment program.  You should be evaluated by a physical therapist and educated on which tools are best for you, as well as how to use them.

AmazonBasics High-Density Round Foam Roller - 36-Inches
HyperIce Vyper Foam Roller 11" (Black Standard)
Vibrating roller for muscle relaxation, soft tissue mobilization, increasing blood flow, and workout recovery
Snug Rubber Dog Balls - Tennis Ball Size - Virtually Indestructible - Extra Bouncy (3 Pack)
Yes, they're technically dog balls!  They are cheap, durable balls for self treatment
Body Back Company's Body Back Buddy Trigger Point Self-Massage Tool
A favorite tool for reaching tight muscles around the shoulder blades


​
Stretch Strap with Instructions
Excellent for stretching hips and knees




​
Original Massage Stick
This is most useful for post-workout self massage and improving blood flow
Hypersphere:  Vibrating self treatment ball for muscle relaxation, increased blood flow, and pain relief
Twin Block Pro
The best suboccipital release tool I have found, which can also be used for trigger point release in other areas.
