The DaVinci Tool is a helpful self-care tool that relieves muscle tension and pain. Made from medical grade, non-latex, hypoallergenic plastic, the DaVinci Tool has three distinct edges. The blunt edge is for softer work, good for larger muscle groups. The sharp edge is for more precise, deep muscle work, for direct massage that will break up adhesions and penetrate to deeper muscles. The scalloped edge is for fingers and toes and also doubles as a grip for self-massage.
It’s helpful to a wide range of areas, including the scapula, shoulders, lower back, hips, legs, and feet. It’s also great on pressure points. People can use it daily, plus the compact size makes it easy to transport. It’s especially beneficial for tension headaches.
Usually, the suboccipital muscles, located just under the base of the skull, cause tension headaches when they tighten. To release these muscles,you can lie down and rest the suboccipitals on one of the three edges of the DaVinci Tool. This compression will release tension in the muscles and relieve the pain. Using the tool to massage that area will also increase the effectiveness.
It’s a simple and enjoyable way to ease those tight muscles on your own, without having to seek professional help. The DaVinci Tool is sold at Element.
