Magnassager

He who recovers first wins, and athletes are always looking for ways to speed the recovery process. Massage is an integral part of most pro cyclists' recovery routine but this is not practical on a daily basis. The Magnassager may be a good "inbetween" massage tool for the over worked athlete. There have been many self massage units on the market but most do not come close to the deep kneading action of a good massage therapist.

The Magnassager raises the bar. Instead of a vibration head the unit utilizes three rotating magnetic heads. These heads gently pressure, stretch, and release the muscle. In the past massage has been a particularly effective technique for my IT band syndrome. This area in particular is difficult to release through stretching. After using the Magnassager I felt an immediate release in this area. It also worked well on pressure points (muscle knots). Although no substitute for quality sports massage it is definitely one for the recovery tool box.
