Abstract
A neuromuscular therapy device and method is provided. The neuromuscular therapy device includes a top unit including a pair of square pyramidal bodies separated by a central valley. Each of the pair of square pyramidal bodies includes a top peak with vertices that are smoothly radiused. The neuromuscular therapy device may also include a base unit including a hollowed top central portion configured to provide a seat within which the top unit is secured.
Claims15
A neuromuscular therapy device, comprising:
- a top unit comprising a pair of square pyramidal bodies separated by a central valley, wherein each of the pair of square pyramidal bodies comprises a top peak with vertices that are smoothly radiused;
- and
- a base unit comprising a hollowed top central portion configured to provide a seat within which the top unit is secured.
A method of neuromuscular therapy, the method comprising:
- placing a neuromuscular therapy device against a flat surface, the neuromuscular therapy device comprising a pair of square pyramidal bodies separated by a central valley, wherein each of the pair of square pyramidal bodies comprises a top peak with vertices that are smoothly radiused;
- and
- positioning a user on the neuromuscular therapy device to exert pressure against a therapeutic anatomical target of the user,
- wherein the therapeutic anatomical target comprises at least one of the erector spinae group, multifidus and short posterior sacroiliac ligaments and associated trigger points.
1 more element
