The unique design of the Thera Cane Max lets users apply deep pressure massage to hard to reach areas of the body on their own. Easily apply pain-relieving deep compression directly to hard, knotted “trigger points” anywhere they occur – breaking up tension even in the hardest-to-reach spots such as between the shoulder blades and the middle of the back. The Thera Cane Max provides temporary relief from knotted, spasmed muscles, muscular tension, stiffness, tenderness and soreness. The Max is a two piece massager, connected with the Link Ball. The Link Ball that connects top and bottom is horizontal to the rest of the device letting users put it behind them in a chair and lean against it or sit on it to work the glut muscles. Comes complete with a fully illustrated and easy to follow owner’s manual along with a DVD. Thera Canes are lightweight, durable and feature 6 strategically located treatment balls while the ergonomic design optimizes leverage. Pressure from the Thera Cane helps to maximize the flow of oxygenated blood to the muscles. It is waterproof and safe to use in the tub or shower. Latex free.
