The Muscletrac® can be used to quickly pre-warm the back muscles before training and competition or to accelerate muscle recovery after training and competition. With regular application, the Muscletrac effectively reduces back muscle tightness, improves elasticity and flexibility, eliminates trigger points and muscle adhesions, and accelerates muscle tissue regeneration.
Stand or sit in a relaxed position to allow for proper penetration and releaseof the muscle and fascia.
The first few runs of the muscle are diagnostic, scanning the back muscles to feel the restrictive tissue/tightness and trigger points.Run the back muscles along the length of the spine, 10-15 times with light to moderate pressure. As you scan your back muscles, stop the Muscletrac when you feel tightness, soreness or a knot in the muscle (trigger Point). Apply a steady pressure for 5-10 seconds to “open up” and release the area; hold longer for more dense areas. Continue with 10-15 more runs and move on to another area.
Stay off of the joints and bones.
Areas with excessive restriction may require additional attention.
