Product Description
TREAT YOURSELF TO DEEP RELIEF FROM PAINFUL, KNOTTED, SPASMED MUSCLES - EVEN IN THE MIDDLE OF YOUR BACK! This amazingly simple yet effective self-massager makes it easy to apply pain-relieving deep compression directly to hard, knotted "triggerpoints" anywhere they occur - breaking up tension even in the hardest-to-reach muscles between your shoulder blades! If you have limited strength or mobility, Thera Cane's patented design gives youall the reach and leverage you need! HOW DOES IT WORK? Pressure applied to the muscles by the Thera Cane helps to maximize the flow of oxygenated blood to the muscles. This pressure aids in restoring muscle function by breaking up adhesions in muscle fibers and tendons. The increased circulation helps the muscle to work more efficiently. The Thera Cane provides temporary relief from muscular tension, stiffness, tenderness and soreness. It's simple to use and it puts relief where it belongs, in your hands. The personal involvement necessary for using the Cane leads to an increased desire to take more responsibility for one's own health. Using the Thera Cane regularly will put you in touch with your body, closer than you've ever been before, not to mention putting you in control of minor muscular aches and pains. You are never alone when you have your Thera Cane with you.

This item works, but you can't use it too much or too hard or you could damage your muscles. This is something not explained in the catalog and I had to learn this from my physical therapist. I also don't think it's worth the money I paid for it, but if you are desperate like I was, you will try anything for pain relief. I would recommend a good message over this product.

The theracane has been great to work out those little muscle knots in the neck and shoulders that make you miserable.
Getting rid of the hard to reach sore spots March 18, 2008

I have problems with tight neck muscles and back muscles from working out with weights; I was spending a lots of money on massage therapy until my a physical therapist told me about the Theracane. It has been a life saver (and money saver). Now I can give myself a deep massage on my neck, shoulder and back muscles, then take a hot shower and I'm back in business. This was a great investment for me!!!

I most highly recommend this tremendous product. When you are trying to message away trigger point pain (knots) in hard to reach areas of your back, it is like having very long, totally mobile arms. It is well designed and made to last. I also highly recommend "The Trigger Point Therapy Workbook" by Clair and Amber Davies. I found out about the Thera Cane from that book. While giving you several different message tool options, the author's favorite one is the Thera Cane, which they most highly recommend.
"The Trigger Point Therapy Workbook" is a tremendous resource for people in pain. After having tried many natural remedies for my shoulder pain, this program is the best. Glucosamine while it helped, did not totally alleviate the pain. Magnet therapy helped for awhile, but eventually made the pain worse. Chiropractic treatments, which used trigger point therapy worked for a time, but then my knots would return and cause pain. I didn't know the importance of at least six times a day massaging your central trigger points until the knots are gone.
"The Trigger Point Therapy Wookbook" has excellent information on the muscles. It also has excellent charts which help you locate specific trigger points (knots in your muscles) which cause pain. It tells you how to message those painful areas to get rid of the knots in your muscles. While the information is thorough, it is written for the lay person in an understandable way.
You can have central trigger points, which are located in the belly of the muscle that hurts. You can also have satellite trigger points in the pain referral zone of another muscle and attachment trigger points in your tendons where your muscles connect to your bones. While your trigger points will never be on opposite sides of your body, they can travel the length of one side of the body. Satellite and attachemnt trigger points are secondary trigger points. Even though they can be very painful, especially attachment trigger points, they can right themselves. Not so with central trigger points. You can get the secondary trigger points out, but not deal with the pain unless you deal with the central trigger points.
While the book and Thera cane may at first glance seem expensive, they are far cheaper than repeated Chiropractic visits. I most highly recommend this unbeatable pair for relieving pain.

This product is terrific. I keep it by my chair and use it just about every night on the knots in my shoulders. It's so fantastic, I have bought it for others.
