I am often asked for recommendations about products to support your health and wellness. This is my curated collection of at-home options to help relax and restore your body and complement chiropractic treatment and whole body wellness.
These products are also at Dr. Stefanie's office if you want to try them out.
Chirp Wheels
Targeted Muscle Roller for Deep Tissue Massage, Back Stretcher with Foam Padding, Supports Back Pain Relief - Chirp offers different sizes that allow you with the larger wheel to stretch your spine and your pecs and anterior thorax muscles. The middle size wheel starts to get more targeted stretching along your thoracic spine. The smaller wheel offers more targeted extension in your thoracic and lumbar spine and paraspinal muscles, and can be used for other muscle groups like your thighs (IT band, hamstrings, quads), and side of your thorax (serratus anterior). They also have an even smaller wheel that can be used on your neck or one with bumps to really get into those sore spots.
Foam Rollers
Silicone Cups
Release adhesions, improve drainage, and energy flow within your body. Use with an oil (like olive oil) or with water (in a shower or bath).
Zyllion Vibrating Peanut Massage Ball
Rechargeable Double Lacrosse Muscle Foam Roller for Physical Therapy, Myofascial Trigger Point Release, Plantar Fasciitis
Contours with your body, this vibrating massage ball has raised ridges that help relieve muscle aches and improve circulation by digging deep into your muscles to release any tension. Use it before and post workout to prevent injuries. Works great on feet and gluts. Turn it on and let it do its work while you relax or work.
Gua Sha Tools
For myofascial adhesions, use with an oil like a massage oil, olive oil, or coconut oil or a salve with beeswax that holds up a little more to the scraping technique used with these tools. Do not scrape an area more than 20 seconds or so, as soon as it shows little red dots (petechiae), you can stop. This technique is used to help the body heal, but going too deep or too long can instead create injury.
Vibration Plates
Shake out tension and stress, boost metabolism, and stabilize your joints.
LifePro Waver
The Waver body vibration machine creates full-body vibrations for muscle contraction & activation. Not only does it help with fat burning, the vibration platform improves muscle tone, boosts metabolism, improves circulation & bone density, and reduces joint stress. Yoga straps & resistance bands included with this model. This is the model Dr. Stefanie has in her office- try before you buy!
