Body Back Buddy Jr. and the BBB-Mini Review

Body Back Buddy Jr. and the BBB-Mini
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
Before you get this pack, be sure that you know what size you want. The back buddy comes in a few sizes, and these are the two smallest. The mini back buddy is actually more handy than the other part in the set for me, as the larger one of the set is the small of the real back buddy tools,the back buddy jr., and is meant for thinner or smaller people. Still pretty good, but if you are a larger man, I'd suggest getting one of the larger models, or the Theracane, whichever is cheaper, as they both do the same thing, allow you to reach trigger points for yourself, instead of waiting for a therapist, or begging your significant other.

Average Reviews:

The backnobber is a great product.I am a physical therapist and recommend these to patients all the time.Especially following car accidents, or patients with sustained repetitive position and task jobs. The free gift is worth about $1, it is pointed on the tip - not very comfortable.But you're not buying the free gift, so who cares, I guess it works about as well as a tennis ball anyway.

Davinci Tool, Firm Review

Davinci Tool, Firm
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
So your wondering if this piece of rubber is worth the money? Well it depends what's wrong with you. There is no substitute for a good chiropractor, but if you cannot afford one/have been let down before like I have by others, this product might be a shadowy glimmer of hope for you. This product should not be intended to be used more than once a day, and should only be used as an alignment tool only as necessary. With that being said. For those of use that have alignment problems caused by stress that leads to short tense muscle pulling out vertebra out of whack this might be the solution your looking for.

What causes short tense muscle and do I have it?

Stress, as you hear on TV takes it's toll on our bodies, especially extended periods of high stress. Naturally, when stressed our bodies get in that fight/flight mode that never seems to go away which in theory leads to teeth grinding (instinctively clenching our teeth for protection against a brutal attack), clenching our fists and muscles we don't even know we're using (especially the back). Again, I am no doctor although I have had years of personal experience in this department, but if you find yourself arching your back and/or self adjusting ("popping") your back, this could remotely be a possibility for you. In this case, professionally and personally adjusting your back all the time could aggravate the situation and lose that stiffness our backs need to stay in place (since cracking our backs is NOT natural).

It should also be noted that sitting, overdeveloping muscles, or being in certain contorted stances/positions may also lead to short muscle development. (All of which I have done)

What does this product do?

For me, I use this product to penetrate deep stiff muscles in my back with contribute to my upper back problems. This product is no joyride and for me is extremely painful, but I find this tool to be extremely effective in loosening my tight stiff muscles in the back. Short muscle is never good. That is why it is recommended that you stretch before you run, lift weights, or perform yoga to relieve stress (stress = short muscle remember?). Yoga is the safest and most widely accepted form of stress relief for which there is no substitute, but there are deep spots in our bodies (like for me in between my left shoulder blade and spine) that yoga is ineffective. This tool digs it's way in there and stretches those "trigger points" or short muscle and not only relieves the pain after a short period of agony, but also helps nurture the spine to go where it's supposed to winning that tug of war battle between short muscle and the natural position of our bodies.

Final thoughts:

If you have already consulted a doctor, ask that specialist if this product is right for you. Adjusting your back too often will cause more problems than you started out with, and the primary use of this product is for trigger point and short muscle stretching and releasing. As with everything common sense dictates this tools effectiveness, and for me it's worth is considerable.

AccuMassage and Body Back Buddy Review

AccuMassage and Body Back Buddy
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I bought this combo because it was cheaper than getting both separately.I find that to be true for many of the items sold from Body Back Company. So if you are interested in a couple of items, I would encourage you to search for bundles.Anyways, the BBB is a great tool, but I won't elaborate on it here (see my other reviews for a review of that item).

The accumassager is great for what it does, but somewhat limited in scope.I found that its primarily useful for the neck and shoulders.The two golf-ball like attachments are actually made of a soft rubber, which is good because it grips your muscles relatively well and feels better than a hard point of contact.They are also adjustable so you can move them along the device depending on what you want to target (i.e., closer together for neck and further apart for shoulder or legs).The limitation, as you can probably imagine, is that it is primarily designed to be a squeezing/kneading device.I would recommend this if you have neck/shoulder tension that can be relieved with a straightforward squeezing and limited kneading motion.Having said that, you can definitely get a lot of leverage with the device so you get a deep knead with not too much effort.

Thera Cane Massager Review

Thera Cane Massager
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
Buy this odd-looking, yet extremely handy device if you have a hard-to-reach spot that needs constant attention. Especially useful for the back or if you need to apply a good amount of pressure on spots such as the bottom of the foot. Things I like best about it include:

-it's lightweight
-handles positioned so you can keep pressure on a spot while rubbing
-is in the shape of a "hook" so virtually no spot is out of reach

Intended for those who need to regularly massage out tense areas in the muscles, it's a very useful tool- and cheaper than therapy! Also recommend Treat Your Own Spinal Stenosis if you suffer from chronic back pain.
