Claims20
A health aid kit comprising:
- a health aid comprising:
- a first elongated member,
- a second elongated member, and
- an attachment connecting said first and second elongated members and configured for the first and second elongated members to move between a closed position wherein a bottom end of each of said first and second elongated members are adjacent, and an open position wherein said bottom ends are separated by a first distance, wherein the first and second elongated members can also move to an engaged position wherein said bottom ends are separated by a second distance that is less than said first distance,
- wherein said attachment comprises a cap having an angled resting face for engagement with a substantially vertical surface when the first and second elongated members are in the engaged position;
- and
- instructions for using said health aid as part of a treatment, said instructions comprising:
- engaging each of said first and second elongated members with either a hand or a neck and/or shoulder muscle of a user while the health aid is arranged at an angle against a substantially horizontal plane in order to assume a first position intended to increase flexibility, strength, or both, and wherein the first and second members are in the open or engaged position when the user engages each of said first and second elongated members and assumes the first position.
A health aid kit comprising:
- a health aid comprising:
- a first elongated member with a top end and a bottom end;
- a second elongated member with a top end and a bottom end;
- and
- a cap comprising a first elongated member receiving portion connected proximate to said top end of the first elongated member, a second elongated member receiving portion connected proximate to said top end of the second elongated member, and
- an outer resting face for engagement with a substantially vertical surface,
- wherein said cap is configured for the first and second elongated members to move between a closed position wherein the bottom end of each of said first and second elongated members are adjacent, and an open position wherein said bottom ends are separated by a first distance, wherein the first and second elongated members can also move to an engaged position wherein said bottom ends are separated by a second distance that is less than said first distance;
- and
- instructions for removing at least a portion of one of the elongated members from the health aid to obtain a single stick,
- instructions for using said single stick as part of a treatment, said instructions comprising:
- engaging the single stick with a first hand or arm of a user while assuming a position intended to increase flexibility, strength, or both.
