What is the Stick Made of,
how long will it last?
Stick products are made of a space-age
plastic that allow necessary flexibility of the tool and
provide maximum compression of the muscles (the Stick
contains no rubber or wood). The center rod of the Stick is
surrounded by spindles which roll independently over the
muscle. The handles provide maximum comfort in the grip. The
Stick comes with a 90-day satisfaction guarantee, and a 1
year manufacturer's warranty against defects. With proper
use, The Stick should last a lifetime.
Medical
Talk:
The Stick converts non-compliant muscle
to compliant muscle by performing what Dr. Travell calls
stripping massage. In fact, this noted medical physician
relates that, "deep stripping massage of the tender
spot in the muscle was generally the treatment of choice for
muscular rheumatism (myofascial trigger points) long before
the turn of this century, and for fibrositis
afterwards." The Stick allows people to self-perform
general as well as segmental therapeutic procedures with a
high degree of precision. These procedures remove the
barriers to peak physical performance. It is the unassisted
rolling, stretching, twisting and compressing of the muscle
that diffuses barrier trigger points and converts
non-compliant muscle to compliant muscle.
