The Knobble II Sapphire Blue by Custom Craftworks

My physio said to get this tool, to release tight muscles in my forearm - the tightness a result of tennis elbow. The Knobble is easy to grip, and creates the same feel and pressure as if I was using my thumb, but at a better angle AND with less effort to the opposing hand/arm doing the work! The tool also works well when I use it on my partner's neck and shoulder blades to release tension and offer pain relief. It is a handy travel-friendly size and weight as well. A great piece of kit that I really fine useful.

This thing is a very effective little tool for releasing pressure points, trigger points, knots, etc. Just don't use too much pressure. It should be a good hurt. Never use on bone (like the spine), just soft tissue. And the most important thing is to breathe deeply. If you hold your breath your pressure points won't release, and you can end up causing more swelling (same as if you use way too much pressure). It can take a little practice but it is life changing for people needing pain relief. I own countless massage tools and this is my new favorite. I'll be ordering another one so I have one at home and one at work. Literally the only thing I dislike about it is the little keyring thing where they attach the little tag/literature. They didn't even use it, just tossed the card in the bag w/ the tool. What you're left with (and this is pretty nit picky) is an annoying little pointless hotspot that's just always in the way and ruins the symmetry of an otherwise perfect product. I'll be cutting mine off, but my OCD wants a cleaner solution. Other than that, this is a fairly perfect device for pain relief. I may just buy a bunch for Christmas presents for the fam. The plastic used (not sure the type) is probably the best material they could have used. It provides just the right amount of grip that you want on the skin. Speaking of grip, I love that they thought to rubberize the grip. It works so well. This was a a very well designed product. I'm usually far too lazy to leave reviews but every now and then there's something I really like so I feel like the product deserves to have its praises sung.

+ shape of the item means more pressure where you need it, by using less effort+ comfortable to hold+ plastic feels sturdy and well madeThis has been an absolute godsend to help with my scalp pain/tension headaches/neck ache. I used to massage myself but my thumbs would get so tired.This arrived item arrived today and I finally have some relief from my throbbing headache! So pleased with the item that I've rushed to review it straight away.

Not stable if you plan to ace on floor and ease yourself onto it. Best used by a second person.

ITEM QUITE EASY TO HOLD IN HAND, DIDNT QUITE HAVE THE MASSAGING EFFECT AS EXPECTEDQUITE GOOD AS A REFLEXOLOGY TOOL
