HOW TO USE PROTO

HELPFUL SUGGESTIONS

• Choose a space that is tranquil and without distractions.
• Make sure that you are comfortable.
• Play soothing music to improve healing.
• The aroma from essential oils help provide a holistic environment.
• Soft lighting promotes a peaceful surrounding.
• Stay hydrated to help detoxification and enhanced blood flow.

A non-slip surface such as a yoga mat is recommended for better traction for some applications.
Topical (for use outside of the body) essential oils such as Lavender, Peppermint, Rosemary, and Cedarwood will be helpful for gliding the knobs over the area that is being worked on.

BACK
Start on your back and place the PROTO right below your shoulder blades. Your feet should be placed firmly on the ground close to your torso or buttocks. This way you  will be able to push off so as to roll all the way down your back. With hands to your chest and shoulders off the ground, roll back.

HIPS & BUTTOCKS
In an upright seated position, cross your legs. Left ankle on top of right knee. Left hand on the floor. Place the PROTO right above your buttocks and roll back & forth. To  work your outer left hip/buttocks, switch from left hand to left elbow on the floor and slightly twist your body so as to put pressure just in the right spot. Roll back and forth.  Switch sides and repeat as needed.

WAIST
While laying on your left side, position your left elbow on the yoga mat with your left leg stretched out and the right foot firmly planted behind your left leg.
Slide the PROTO under your waist and roll back and forth. Balance yourself to establish the desired pressure. Switch to the right side as desired.

THIGHS & HAMSTRINGS

For thighs, lay on your stomach and rest your elbows in front of you, shoulder length.
With stretched out legs, cross one on top of the other.
Use your arms in conjunction with your tiptoes to work thighs.
You may have to reposition the PROTO to reach the entire length of your thigh.
Switch thighs as needed.
For Hamstrings, sit upright with legs stretched out. Cross one leg over the other and raise your buttocks off the ground. Place the PROTO under your hamstrings and use your arms to roll back and forth. Balance yourself for the appropriate tension.
Switch legs as needed.

CALVES
For the calves you will want to follow the same basic steps as you would when working the thighs & hamstrings.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS:

1. How much pressure do I need to apply?
– The pressure should be firm enough; but should not be so severe to cause strain, pain, discomfort, or damage to the underlying tissues.
– Be aware of pressure for the following:
– • Have had recent surgery
– • The elderly and/or those with osteoporosis
– • Young children
– • Do not apply direct pressure over varicose veins
– Pressure tolerance varies from person to person. It also varies depending on what part of the body you are working on. For delicate muscles such as the calves, start by applying light pressure. For stronger muscles such as the thighs and glutes, apply more pressure.
2. How long do I need to apply pressure?
– Please make sure that you do not have any serious injuries or conditions that may be a source of aggravation. Methods vary depending on what body part you are working on.Please follow the recommendations set forth in each section corresponding to the area that is being worked on.
3. How frequently should I use it?
– Limit massage to one minute per trigger point. You can work a trigger point 6 times per day, until pressure on it causes a pain level of only 2 or 3 (out of 10).
4. How soon can I see results?
– Significant relief is reached in just minutes of treatment. Acute or chronic conditions are more complex and less responsive to treatment and can take anywhere from 3 to 10 days of daily usage.
