When you think of a beloved personal massager, you’re likely picturing something like Samantha’s prized vibrator on “Sex And The City.” While the Thera Cane is completely G-rated, it will soothe knots and tightness in your back and neck so well, you may be moved to shout some profanities.
Boasting a 4.7-star overall rating on Amazon, this cane-shaped massager has six treatment balls placed at different heights to give targeted pressure to hard-to-reach sore spots on your back. It’s made in the U.S. from fiberglass material and was designed by someone dealing with chronic pain after neck surgery. While plenty of happy Amazon customers recommend it, you’ll be glad to know trained physical therapists and rehabilitation physicians like the Thera Cane as well.
“This is a convenient tool for working out tension and muscle knots that sit in hard-to-reach places of the shoulders and upper back,” Monica Frydach, a Wisconsin-based physical therapist and founder of Moving Like A Mother, previously told HuffPost. “I love to use it while watching TV at the end of a long day. Easy to use and great for anyone who works a desk job.”
