How Much Pressure to Apply
Place the therapy knob on the sore muscle and apply what you
consider to be a comfortable amount of pressure. When this muscle
compression is released it stimulates a therapeutic response. How
much pressure to apply varies from one person to another—deep and
intense, or gentle and relaxing. However, only apply as much pressure
as you feel comfortable with. More pressure is not necessarily better!
How Long to Apply Pressure
Ten to thirty seconds is normally enough time to elicit a therapeutic re-
sponse in the muscle. Applying too much pressure for too long causes
the body to treat the pressure as an intrusion. For maximum results
return to the treated area three to four times each session.
The Healing Process
Restoring health to dysfunctional muscles is a step-by-step process.
The first step entails releasing the muscle’s tightness and hyper
contraction. This is the purpose of the Body Back Buddy. Be sure to
stretch and hydrate your muscles so they regain their natural strength,
elasticity and pliability. For long-term muscle health and strength,
exercise and stretching are crucial. Finally, it is important to correct
improper body mechanics and/or poor posture that
can contribute to muscular problems.
