Neck Pillow Store Proper usage of pressure point massage helps with muscle tension and pain reliefUsing The Pressure Point Massager: There are certain areas of muscle strain that affect the neck. Soreness, however, can occur in any muscle. You are the best judge of your pain and discomfort. Regular use of the Pressure Point Massager can help you better understand the source and nature of muscle problems and can aid in a healthy, pain free lifestyle. The guidelines listed below can be followed when using the Pressure Point Massager on any muscle in the body. 1) Isolate an area of muscle soreness by pressing firmly with your fingertips or the Pressure Point Massager over a specific part of the neck, shoulders, upper, middle or lower back, buttocks or thighs.
2) When you feel a hard knot (like a lump) or soreness, apply pressure to determine the level of tenderness in the muscle area. Some sensation of pain is to be expected from the pressure and this sensation may even be pleasurable and satisfying. Experiment to determine a tolerable level of pressure. 3) Once you have located the area and know how it feels, you’re ready to begin using Pressure Point Massager. As you become used to finding these sore areas in your muscles and how to apply pressure, you can begin immediately with the Pressure Point Massager instead of spending time locating them. 4) The Pressure Point Massager can be hooked over the shoulder or under the arm. Apply direct, steady, pressure to the sore muscle. 5) Pressure can be applied for between 5 and 30 seconds. It often takes time for muscles to begin to get used to the pressure for the first 20 seconds or so. In general it is best to start slowly and gradually increase pressure as desired following your own best judgement.

It is best to work both sides of the body, just in case any pain is referred to the other side after being massaged. 8) Remember to breathe!
