Thera Cane Massage Tool

A Theracane is a simple and effective self massage tool that can bring temporary relief from muscular tension, stiffness, tenderness and soreness. It can be used to apply pain relieving deep compression directly to hard “knots” or trigger points anywhere on the body, especially hard to reach areas. Shaped almost like a candy cane it has small knobs placed on areas along its length that are used to press into the knots to which you wish to bring relief. Depending on the model, the number of knobs may vary. You can apply as much or as little pressure as you like, whatever works for you. Pressure applied to the muscles by the Thera Cane helps to maximize the flow of oxygenated blood to the muscles which, in turn, aids in restoring muscle function by breaking up adhesions in muscle fibers and tendons. The increased circulation helps the muscle to work more efficiently.
