Utilized Sidekick Echo to deal with strained hamstring. Directions were very clear in book provided. Directions also can be obtained through video. Only issue was not clear is how much gel is needed before scrapping and how long bottle provided will last.
I have been dealing with plantar fasciitis for almost a year now and I have been physical therapy. I stretched. I did everything to help with it and nothing seem to give me relief. I have decided to try this scraper and literally after the first use it was much better and I’m still using it regularly, especially after I exercise whenI have decided to try the scraper and literally after first use. It was much better and I’m still using it regularly, especially after I exercise when I have a flareup. Gives me instant relief, and I also tore my calf muscle and I use it for my leg as well on that injured leg. It’s been a really helpful tool.
I run 50+ mile per week and ihave tried many things to get rid of topside foot pain. Some have helped a bit like the Sidekick scrapper, but it was always a temporary fix. The toe spreader has given me lasting relief. I don't even have to use the scrapper anymore.u
I suffer from chronic IT Band Syndrome and the Bow has saved me. It loosens my tight hamstrings and breaks up the tightness in top of my knee to keep me running. A must-have for ITBS!
OMG! I LOVE MY SIDEKICK AXISBOARD. I fractured my ankle a few months ago and love doing my PT on the board. I am a Physical Therapist and am always looking for new ways to help my patients achieve their goals. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!
Never considered this but it was included with echo scraper an honestly it’s been great to stretch out my foot!
I love my sidekick for my tight hipflexors. I use the sidekick all over, whatever is tight. It's one of my favorite running tools;)
The sidekick helped my ankle/ arch issue in days. I believe I have peronial tendinitis as well as metatarsialgia. Great to take with me when travelling.
Extremely comfortable. Easily adjustable for my toes - I have no control over my 4 small toes, and this is helping me regain sensitivity and mobility in them. Slow but steady.
Surprisingly great. Really isolates my Achilles which is exactly what I needed to help strengthen some of the muscles that get obliterated when I run.
This gadget has helped me - the plantar faciitis is finally resolving. Thanks for a great tool
I'm so happy with the quality of the scraper and everything that came with it. A full manual with clear photos and directions for all body parts, the storage case is quality, the oil and mini towel are nice additions and the scraper itself is really high quality. I'm glad I ordered this instead of a cheap one. It was worth the money!
The injection and prednisone that the dr gave me didn't really do anything, but I happened to see the video advertisement about the Sidekick for plantar fasciitis. Even though I was dubious, I ordered it, and after hobbling on crutches for a week, I received the Echo, used it twice a day on my foot, and was able to walk with almost no pain after about 5 days. Some days I wake up and can feel some pain in my heel, so I continue to treat it at least once a day, and am fine the rest of the day.
I’m looking forward to using this little gadget more often. I can tell it’s well thought out in design and Believe it’s going to work.
I love these…I am in awe how my toes look after wearing them even for a short time…15 min. I’d like to wear them all night long but really not necessary. They work rather quickly. Just wish they had a simpler way of getting them on…a bit tricky. A video would be great! Thanks.
After just a week of use, my ankle is no longer stiff in the morning, and I have dramatically decreased pain.
I like the way the gel helps the tool slide over my skin. It does get everywhere so you need to keep the towel handy. And wash the gua sha tool every time you use it.
Easy to use and the gel is not over powering or unpleasant
Great quality with finish and feel of the echo scraper. Easy to use the scraper and the manual is easy to reference and use. The axis board is good quality and easy to use and the manual is easy to follow and well laid out. Id recommend this bundle for prehab and rehab :)
I've had it about a week now and have done the mobility exercises most days. I'm already noticing a difference when running. My range of movement is greatly improved and I didn't have any sesamoid pain after my run like I normally would. I'm excited to see how much my mobility and strength will improve with more time.
