Why use Massage Tools?

<div class="bbWrapper">I never liked massage tools either, I always felt that they didn&#039;t add much value because you still had to add pressure on top of them.  In addition, they felt very foreign.  That&#039;s why I invented the Acuforce massage tool line.  I am a 24 year veteran massage therapist.  I&#039;ve owned a clinic in a suburb of Chicago for 15 years and I am the massage therapist to the Chicago White Sox baseball team.  The weight helps save your energy and hands and the products feel like real skin.  Often times the client can&#039;t tell the difference between your hands and the tools.  You can do things that you may not be able to do with your own hands.  You can sustain consistant pressure for longer periods of time.  You also will be able to get to deep tissues difficult to get to such as the psoas.Many NMT instructors use the tools and recomend them.   Benny Vaughn and Ralph Stephens are a few of them.  Please visit http://www.acuforce.com or call me,  I would be glad to discuss the products with you.  They are fully guaranteed.John G.

<div class="bbWrapper">    I am generally opposed to using &quot;tools&quot;, such as those mentioned in previous posts UNLESS the problem(s) is strictly physical and/or the client has a physical problem that needs massage therapy, but is very uncomfortable with touch.     I have tried a number of &quot;tools&quot; on myself, but have not had much luck acheiving the results that I hoped for.  I personally get starved for human touch, in which hands-on massage seems to help out greatly with.     Also, if things get too &quot;strenous&quot; during a massage treatment, reiki can be substituted in for a while.  Using a mixture of reiki and massage therapy during the same session has allowed me to work on several people back to back with very little strain on myself.From John Nozum</div>
 
<div class="bbWrapper">No-one&#039;s mentioned rocks!! I know quite a few of us use them! The heat/cold penetrates the muscles, plus you can easily provide more pressure.  I&#039;ve found the rocks have had the biggest impact on my treatments over the last few years than any other technique/tool I&#039;ve looked into since I started using them about 4 years ago.</div>
 
<div class="bbWrapper">Oh yeah, rocks!  lol!  I forgot those count as tools.Katykangaroo</div>
