Spine Stretchers / Spine Aligners

Spine-Worx Back Realignment Device

Product Features

  • Realign vertabrae to natural position
  • Helps to relieve muscular pain, pressure and irritation

Designed by a chiropractor, this natural back support system uses your body's own weight to apply controlled pressure to the spinal vertebrae. As you lie on Spine-Worx, your spine is pressed firmly against the length of its two unique padded and contoured rails, injection-molded to fit the natural shape of the mid- and lower back. The vertebrae in the spine are gradually and gently encouraged to realign into their natural positions, which helps to relieve backpain and improve overall mobility.

Inversion Therapy counteracts the forces of gravity on the body (particularly the back) by decompressing and elongating the spine. This relieves pressure on your spinal cord’s ligaments and nerve roots. In essence, Inversion Therapy reverses the negative effects of gravity. Using an Inversion Table for just 10 minutes a day will allow you to be on your way to improved circulation and posture while relieving muscle aches, back pain and stress.

Note: This therapy is very helpful for many, but may not be recommended for those with major health problems, those who have problems hanging "up-side-down" or the physically challenged or untrained. Assistance may be needed to get back into the upright position.

The Knobble II by the Pressure Positive Company

Product Features

Knobble II is the newly designed cousin of the all-wood classic favorite of therapists and self care enthusiasts. Still about the size of a standard doorknob, it is made of durable polymer. The base is held in the palm of the hand, and the smoothly rounded tip is used to apply pressure to trigger points in soft tissue. The Knobble II has the added benefit of a soft band of non-latex, Santoprene around the base that allows for friction techniques. Bodyworkers often use the Knobble II to save wear and tear on their hands when applying deep, prolonged pressure to knots or strands of contracted muscle. But the Knobble II is not meant to replace your healing hands, only to help them do more and last longer. Remember to position yourself in such a way that you use your weight, not just your strength, to apply pressure to the muscle. Avoid direct pressure against the spine and other bones.

Electrical Massaging Tools

Magnetic Massager Magnassager Massage Therapy

Product Features

  • The ultimate deep-down magnetic massager
  • The handle is ergonomically molded to fit the hand for better handling and more efficient control
  • Three stainless steel balls are suspended in place by a 1,000 gauss, natural permanent magnet
  • Magnetic Magnassager provides a more superior soft tissue manipulation
  • Magnetic Magnassager Weighs 6.5 lbs

Three stainless steel balls are suspended in place by a 1,000 gauss, natural permanent magnet. The gauss (a measure of magnetic force) is transferred to the tissue. This combined with the free rolling motion of the stainless steel balls creates a deep kneading stimulation.

The application of magnets in the magnetic massager stimulates the autonomic nervous systems, which dilates capillaries and increases localized circulation.

The patented mechanism allows a more concentrated massage action to be applied, resulting in greater soft tissue manipulation.

Additional therapeutic benefits of the magnet massage MAGNASSAGER promote: breaking down adhesions; alleviating fatigue, soreness and muscle spasms; realigning scar tissue; reducing inflammation and swelling; increasing systemic blood oxygen and lymph flow; helping to prevent and treat injuries; assisting to clear muscle of lactic acid and carbon dioxide.
