Tools for your Virtual Session:
- Knowing what tools you have available prior to the session will help our therapists plan the most effective session and manual-at-home-techniques for you.
- Please prepare your at home massage equipment before your session starts.
- Be creative and find what you have around the house. You don’t need to have all of these!
- Feel free to order more tools for your next session. Since we don’t have the capacity to send products from the clinic right now, we are linking to Amazon.
Here’s a list of what we’ve found to be most useful along with comparable substitutes:
Yoga Mat
Balls, Balls, Balls!!
- lacrosse, tennis (the newer the better because more firm), golf, racquetball (not the best but can work in a pinch), softball, Pinky Ball, and other specialty balls you may own
- 6 inch Posture ball – (sold at Psoas)
- Massage balls with grooves – this is one idea linked, but there are many others
Foam roller
- Lower Density Softer Foam Roller – Prefer the longer one for more options for use
- High Density Harder Foam Roller – Prefer the longer one for more options for use
- Travel High Density Foam Roller – (sold at Psoas)
Sticks to roll out legs!!
- Tiger Tail – (sold at Psoas)- a little harder to get into smaller muscles like lower leg muscles, etc.
- The Stick – a bit more flexible and good for larger muscle groups like quads, hams, etc.
- a regular kitchen rolling pin
Neck Massage Tool
- Acumasseur – (Jason’s fav) This is one of the only effective devices for self-neck massage (works great for calves too).
Arm Massage Tool
- Arm Aid Roflex/Rubbit – This is the best for issues of the forearm.
Therabands for exercises
- Recommend Red and/or Green for most – (Green ones sold at Psoas)
Hand Towel or Strap
