I run marathons and one area that has consistently been an issue is my hamstrings. I’ve always struggled to find a way to release them and have tried deep stretching in the sauna, yoga, foam rolling, Theragun - even Normatec boots. The bow scraper has by far been one of my best investments. I highly recommend it to anyone else who is suffering with tight hamstrings or sore quads. This has been a game changer for this tired runner’s recovery!
The scraper arrived promptly and well-packaged. My son and I have already both used it. The book is fantastic at showing you where to scrap for specific issues.
I have had plantar pain for as long as I've known. After using the sidekick and the scraper I was able to have my first run ever pain free. I'm training for a triathlon so recovery has been top priority and this is a miracle tool!
Great tool to reclaim your feet balance. Used it for the basics. Looking forward to try the other exercises.
Good construction! lots of ankle injuries, so hoping this helps a lot.
A really excellent bit of kit. I have used this to rehab my ankle after past breaks and sprains. I noticed a big difference after a week of use. My ankle mobility has improved and I’m also currently strengthening my ankle and foot too. So glad I found this as it has made a big difference after years of ankle and foot discomfort. I will continue to use it moving forward to keep my ankle moving how it should and to retain strength.
This has immensely helped with my running recovery, great purchase!

I am absolutely loving my echo scraper. I’ve done Gua Sha before and really appreciate the durability and design of this tool and the comprehensive guide is immensely helpful. I highly recommend purchasing one if you are thinking about it.
The axis board is helping with reactionary movements, as well as strengthening the surrounding muscles.
I real liked the booklet for the axisboard. The exercise are simple and it’s easy to discover and to choose what to do.
I specialize in postural and pelvic floor work and I bring everythig down to the feet. It is often a struggle to facilitate mobility through the ankle and this is the tool that has gotten more people further in this capacity.
I’m delighted by the simplicity of practicing a few minutes daily. I’ve already noticed improvements in my foot strength and stability, particularly during single-leg exercises at the gym. Setting up the board is easy, and since it’s close to the floor, there’s minimal risk. Additionally, your other leg provides support when needed. While the variety of board configurations can be overwhelming, experimenting on your own helps identify areas for further improvement.
Love hearing this. A few minutes a day really does go a long way, and it sounds like you're already dialing in what works for you. The low height and built-in support from your other leg make it a super safe way to push your balance and strength.
Totally get you on the configurations – there are a lot of options, but exploring them is exactly how most people figure out what their feet and ankles need. Keep going and feel free to share any setups you end up liking!

As a physical therapist, I love this. The independent heel and forefoot pieces really allow you to get better control of your foot. Excited to add it in to my practice.
The design and geometry of this tool is great, the edge is sharp without being painful but scrapes very precisely. I find the textured grip makes it so easy to hold. Am noticing a difference in my sore shoulders.
Love hearing that. Sounds like you’re getting the hang of it already. That textured grip really does make a difference, and glad the edge feels precise without being too much. Even better that your shoulders are starting to feel it. 🙌 Let us know how it keeps going!

Great piece of equipment! Solid high quality construction, holds up to lots of use. Perfect for my rehab clients to target specific training. So far clients love it!
Love to hear that. Glad the build is holding up well — that durability is a big part of why pros like you bring it into rehab work. Awesome that your clients are already feeling the benefits! 🙌

I’m still working through all of the orientations for achilles tendinitis but wow! It’s more of a workout than I expected
Glad to hear it’s working well for you so far! The Achilles setups can definitely sneak up on you - those small stabilizer muscles work hard. Keep at it and let us know how you’re feeling after a week or two! 💪
