  • Publication number: 20100222721
    Abstract: The apparatus includes an array of trigger point probes symmetrically positioned about a central vertical plane of the apparatus, the array including at least two of a pair of upper neck pair of probes, an upper back and shoulder blade pair of probes, a mid back pair of probes, and a lower back pair. Over the probes is Therein is provided a shell resembling the appearance of a human back, the shell provided with apertures sufficient in dimension and location to permit slidable passage of ends of the probes thru the shell. The probes are secured, at a base thereof to a vibratory vertical plane which is secured to a non-vibratory vertical plane secured to a wall. The non-vibratory plane includes lateral extensions that extend to form left and right handles by which a user of the apparatus may select and maintain locations of the back requiring application of pressure to release of trigger point contractions and the like.

  • Publication number: 20100145244
    Abstract: An apparatus for the application of trigger point pressure, including a rigid base generally proportioned to the size of a human back; and an array of trigger point probes symmetric about a central vertical plane of said base, the array including at least two of an upper neck pair of probes, a mid-back and shoulder blade pair of probes, a mid back pair of probes, and a lower back pair. A radius of curvature of a top of each probe is proportioned for optimal physiologic communication with a trigger point of a contracted muscle.
