Abstract
An instrument for assisted soft tissue mobilization including a graspable central core and defines a central axis, a sagittal plane perpendicular to the central axis, a longitudinal plane passing through the central axis and perpendicular to the sagittal plane, a first end spaced from the sagittal plane a second end opposite the first end with respect to the sagittal plane, and at least one arm protruding from one of the ends and defining a contouring configured to perform soft tissue mobilization, wherein the central core includes an ellipsoidal bulb configured to allow an operator to grasp the central core from different angles with respect to the central axis.
Claims11
An instrument for assisted soft tissue mobilization comprising:
- a graspable central core and defined:
- a central axis,
- a sagittal plane perpendicular to said central axis,
- a longitudinal plane passing through said central axis and perpendicular to said sagittal plane,
- a first end spaced from said sagittal plane,
- a second end opposite to said first end with respect to said sagittal plane, and
- at least one arm protruding from one of said ends and defining a contouring configured to achieve said mobilization of soft tissues,
- and
- wherein said central core includes an ellipsoidal bulb configured to allow an operator to grip said central core from different angles with respect to said central axis,
- wherein each said arm protrudes from said central core diverging with respect to said central axis,
- wherein said arms are at least three in number for each end, diverge radially to said central axis and said instrument defines an hourglass shape.
An instrument for assisted soft tissue mobilization comprising:
- a graspable central core and defined:
- a central axis,
- a sagittal plane perpendicular to said central axis,
- a longitudinal plane passing through said central axis and perpendicular to said sagittal plane,
- a first end spaced from said sagittal plane,
- a second end opposite to said first end with respect to said sagittal plane, and
- at least one arm protruding from one of said ends and defining a contouring configured to achieve said mobilization of soft tissues, and
- wherein said central core includes an ellipsoidal bulb configured to allow an operator to grip said central core from different angles with respect to said central axis,
- wherein said at least one arm defines a main section along a secondary plane transverse to said sagittal plane and said longitudinal plane defining a shape chosen from a rounded tip, a spatula, a drop, a straight thumb, a trapezium, a rotated thumb, a medium bulb and a wedge-shaped bulb,
- wherein said at least one arm comprises 8 arms defining a section defining respectively said rounded tip, said spatula, said drop shape, with said straight thumb, with said trapezium, with said rotated thumb, with said medium bulb and with said wedge-shaped bulb.
