Flowpillow

Chronic muscle tear usually stems from lumbar and pelvic problems This is due to the ischiatic nerve being irritated, causing the calf muscle to tense up. When you feel the first symptom (usually a sharp pull in the calf), you must seek immediate treatment before muscle breakage occurs.

Because the sciatica nerve runs from the bottom of the back down to the foot, you need to massage all the way with Flowpillow to ensure full treatment. Focus on the calf because it is probably numb and needs a real circulation boost.

Runner’s knee most often occurs when you step up to another exercise level. As the name implies, it is usually associated with running. It normally occurs during a running session and feels like a cutting pain on the outside of the knee. The discomfort may recede after a few days’ rest but could return when you get on the track again. The pain arises from the tendon that extends along the outside of the thigh becoming inflamed by friction and sliding back and forth over the lateral femoral condyle (muscular attachment at the knee).

With Flowpillow you can massage the seat muscles and then continue massaging the muscle on the outside of the thigh down to the knee. Many customers have found this to be a good complement to other treatments and a preventive tool against runner’s knee.

Delayed onset muscle soreness (DOMS) is the pain and stiffness felt in muscles several hours to days after unaccustomed or strenuous exercise. Warming up or stretching has basically no effect on DOMS. But massage has on repeated occasions shown to have a positive effect. This makes Flowpillow the ideal tool for ensuring continuous treatment after exercising.

As the name implies, jumper’s knee is a knee condition that often afflicts athletes who jump a lot. Our knees work in harness with our legs and tendons to enable us to bend and stretch. When the knee is extended, the quadriceps muscle pulls on the quadriceps tendon, and when the knee is bent, the hamstring muscle pulls the tibia. If you have jumper’s knee you will find it difficult to unbend the knee. At the slightest symptom you have to massage the hamstring and quadriceps as quickly as possible in order to counteract and prevent jumper’s knee.

Lower back pain is often caused by static and repeated stress or non-ergonomic postures. Poor daily routines can eventually lead to lower back pain. Slouched in front of a computer could be harmful in the long term. This repetition becomes a vicious circle for the muscles and the back will eventually tire and pain will set in. Using Flowpillow every day will help to counteract these problems, along with moving and being aware of your posture.

After exercise you can get sore in the muscles, these are inflammations that occur when muscle fibers are damaged during exercise. Research has shown that massage gives positive effect, sometimes a 30% reduction in inflammation, which gives less pain and tenderness. Therefore, Flowpillow is a good tool for your recovery to make your muscles vibrant.
