Bow Muscle Scraper

Excellent Product

The tool is amazing better than any other product I used in the past.

Nothing else has worked!

This tool has done what no other method of treatment has done for my chronic PF. In just a few days I went from excruciating pain to almost no pain at all. I feel like I am finally able to treat the root cause of the issue, not just find a quick fix. I highly recommend this tool!

Amazing relief!

I've been experiencing ankle tenderness and the Echo Muscle Scraper perfectly matches the contours of foot, hitting all the right spots. After a few days of scraping my ankle and calf areas, my runs are feeling so much better!

Glute Bands

These glute bands really are different

I ordered these Glute Bands by accident. They slipped in with my Bow order. I got the two bands. And as it happens I will keep them. I really love them. The texture is perfect. They have a solid feel and are not like the typical elastic type I have already. They don't slip. I wish I had ordered to set of 5 now although so far the set of two is very satisfying for my strength level. Thank you again SideKick.

substantial

This Bow tool is substantial. It really does the job. It allows me to work my own hips, glutes and Lats in a way never before. I also use it on clients who are large. Large quads, and back muscles can be difficult to work with small hands. Clients love it. It saves my hands gives the client an increase in blood flow that they really benefit from. Thank you SideKick. I love all your products that I have tried so far.

Good quality purchase

I recommend purchasing this tool because it is as advertised as far as both quality and performance. The tool has a really good weight to it, it’s got a cool thumb grip to it and an intelligent curve design that works on all areas of the body. In this day and age, I respect a company that isn’t trying to fool you or take shortcuts on quality. It comes with a good case, a good cleaning cloth and emollient. It was more money than I would have liked to spend but because of the reasons stated I think it was worth it.

Unbelievable!

I've been back and forth on buying the Echo for more than a year. My best advice to you is to stop waiting! (Or, if there's a sale, jump on it.) I have been able to easily work on areas my massage therapist doesn't have time to focus on, like tiny muscles and connective tissue that makes a really big difference. And, my feet... My goodness, I have new feet!
I have fibromyalgia, and I've dealt with chronic foot pain since a bout with PF a couple years ago. I have no pain in my feet after two scrapings.
This thing is magic, and I'm in love.

Much needed relief!

I caved and bought the eclipse muscle scraper after seeing so many ads for it, and also struggling with plantar fasciitis/ arch pain in my feet after running. It’s only been two weeks and I feel such a difference. I look forward to using this muscle scraper every day and it truly makes a difference in my recovery. My PF pain is nearly gone and it just feels great to use. Highly recommend!

Awesome Sensory Motor Tool

The Side-kick Echo Massage scraper is an amazing recovery and sensory-motor tool. I’m a brain-based trainer who also teaches self-lymphatic massage and of course I do all these things to support my own health as well.

I had an over-use tendinitis issue in my thumb or the padding below thumb and along with regular lymphatic draining, plus nerve slides, I added the scraping and within 1 week of scraping, my symptoms decreased significantly.

I use other gua sha tools and the Echo Sidekick was the most effective for this particular issue. I’m very happy I bought it and use it for lymphatic work as well.

Echo Muscle Scraper

Perfect running partner

I love my echo muscle scraper. I use it everyday! I go to my massage therapist every four weeks and since using my scraper she recently said my muscles have never felt better! That’s a win for me.

Don't Wait if you have leg pain from running/bicycling

I'm a recreational triathlete, 54 y.o and have tried foam rolling, stretching, magnesium oil/cream/spray, sport rub, leg compression, compex TENS/EMS unit, etc. I've used the Bow Muscle Scraper twice after run and brick training sessions and let me tell you, the time invested on scraping even a few hours after the workout was worth it. No tiredness in the legs the next day. I bought the Echo muscle scraper as well and I definitely prefer the Bow because with two hands, I have more pressure control and it makes the scraping session "easier" than using the smaller Echo.

Freeze Band
Customer
Love it!

The freeze band is great! The reusable plastic pouch that it comes in is marketed as if it will also tolerate being frozen, but the plastic pouch is too brittle. Once frozen if the plastic pouch bumps into anything in the freezer, it cracks apart. The second time I used my Freeze Band, the pouch broke. The pouch has since continued to break apart. A softer plastic would be necessary if the pouch was to last.

Hello!

Thank you for the valuable feedback regarding the storage pouch for the Freeze Bands, we've notified our product team. The Freeze Bands are okay to be stored in the freezer without the pouch, this won't impact the functionality of the bands although we do advise finding a nice clean spot for them in the freezer.

Kindly,
Meghann on behalf of DiveThru

Very Helpful

I've had issues with my toes and feet for yours and the toe spreader is helping reduce pain and provide flexibility. Highest marks! Incidentally, I'm wearing them as I write this review!

Great Product - From Design to Implementation

From the moment I learned about this product I was impressed and how quickly it arrived, how it was packaged and shipped, how comfortable it is to use, nothing has changed my initial impression. I've found this especially helpful because foam rolling is difficult for me to do.

I love my new Sidekick Eclipse. I use it daily to release scar tissue after knee replacement.

You won’t regret purchasing!

I’ve had my eclipse muscle scraper for a week now and it has been a life saver. I’ve been dealing with a moderate muscular injury in my ankle this has helped SO much. It breaks up the scar tissue in my ankle, so I can be mobile and work on strengthening my ankles. It gets deeper than all my other recovery tools. I would highly recommend! Bonus points for being covered by my HSA. You won’t regret purchasing this.

Sidekick is as high quality and effective as I hoped from marketing.

I am not an extreme athlete, just a middle aged person who works out and deals with typical muscle tightness and minor pain in between workouts, hikes or just daily living. This tool is a great addition to my self-care to focus on hot spots. It was really easy to use on my legs, neck, glutes and works very well. I am very impressed with the quality materials, the ergonomics and the how to materials and using it a few times a week and my tight areas are seeing great benefits!

Scraper

I chose to keep the Eclipse and returned the Echo Muscle Scraper. There is nothing wrong with the Echo. I felt the Eclipse was easier to work with. It's been two weeks. Where is my refund for the Echo?

We have followed up with you via your ticket number regarding the status of your refund!

If you have any further questions, please don't hesitate to let us know!

Kindly,

Glute Bands
Ken Lawley
Comfortable bands

Bought bands from a local store. Took them home only to find out they were like actual rubber bands. Using them pulls your skin and hair. These bands are by far the best in comfort. I will tell anyone who's looking for quality bands here they are!

Glute Bands

Great bands; versatile bc of different strengths. Great quality control. Better than tubing bc these bands provide variable resistance as the band is stretched and even provides resistance upon release mode. Therefore, can easily adjust the intensity of exercises by changing the band's tension, adapting to one’s own personal strength to extend resistance or relaxation. With tubing (or free weights) there is no such flexibility, as they offer only a fixed resistance. As well, these resistance bands are much safer for home workouts and portable. With a little planning one can obtain a full body workout. Own many Sidekick products and never disappointed. Highly recommend these products and Company.
