Contrary to some beliefs, muscle scraping should not hurt. Since you are administering the therapy to yourself you are fully in control of the pressure you apply to your skin. Due to the nature of how the tool works even minimal pressure will provide improved recovery.

Different people and body parts will be more prone to seeing petechiae (the bright red spots from scraping) on the skin. Therefore not seeing it doesn't mean that the tool isn't having any effect on your body.

Sidekick’s scrapers help increase blood circulation to the area to accelerate recovery. Although a lacrosse ball applies targeted pressure, it is blunt compared to the proprietary edge on our muscle scrapers. Our refined scraping edge creates very pin-pointed pressure, signaling to your body to increase blood flow to that area. For this reason, you may see petechiae during scraping.
