You guys suck - you have me wanting this $101 plastic stick with fingers now (which seems like a ridiculous price!).
I do use something like this every shower and have noticed my skin tighten & smooth and lost inches within 2 weeks and results have remained. Seems like the Fascia Blaster is longer, easier to use, and probably much harder. I imagine the fingers do a good job.

lorajc, check out the youtube channel for Fascia Blaster -- you may find something there from someone who has your injury, and if not, that might tell you something, too. |

I'm wondering if something like this might work the same. Any thoughts?

I have been reading their Facebook site. From what I see the posts that are believable are from independent uses posting. I don't trust any developers photos as they can be touched up.
There is a 59 year old lady who with use of it looks like she is 20. It seems to break up the fatty cellulite clusters. It appears to potentially move the lymph. The reason I think that is because they can use it in one area and other areas shrink down. They look less puffy. Initially it increases puffiness, then it decreases. People report plantar fasciitis pain leaving, neuropathy, sciatica, back pain, tremors from parkinson leaving. Numbness from bells palsy leaving. People with autoimmune issues and fibromyalgia have to take it slower. Some report it increasing symptoms before decreasing them. Just my thoughts from reading the posts. It firms up droopy skin. It tightens even the saggy belly skin. These are photos from people who purchased, not ones on Ashley Black's site. The bad part is you dig in so deep with the tool, that it causes lots of bruising. She has you go layer through layer of fascia and fat. How hard you go at it depends on your tolerance. She doesn't want you reaching more than a 7 pain wise. She has lots of videos up on how to use it. I have lesions on my spinal cord. Anything that gets close to my spine makes it feel inflamed, even soft foam rollers and balls. If I were someone with an injury, I wouldn't risk digging in deeply. Its not worth the risk. I wouldn't use it if you have a history of DVT and are on blood thinners. Be careful. Use common sense. Its just my feeling from reading through the postings. She said it can reverse muscle atrophy, which interests me. She also says and others report it activates the muscles to work harder during workouts. People comment they can feel their muscles working harder when they workout. According to her other products won't dig in like hers so they won't break up the fat. I don't have mine yet, so I can't comment. |
