PT
I am a PT student at University of St. Augustine and I am so glad that I bought this! it helps so much with hand and shoulder mobilizations. It is grippy and gives lots of support and stabilization. I am so happy I invested in this.

History of Spinal Damage
I am a military veteran and I have numerous spinal damage. I have seen many doctors, chiropractors and many MRIs and will always have to for the rest of my life. My most recent PT introduced me to this, gave me safety instructions on how, when, and where to use it around my spine. I would suggest you speak with your doctor before using this. This helps my spine and muscle tension, but once again always be cautious and speak to your doctor before introducing tools around your spine, muscle and nerves.

Physical Therapy Student Use
I'm a physical therapy student at USAHS, and we require this specific wedge tool. The wedge has some weight to it and is very sturdy. I was expecting it to be fairly smaller but it's actually perfect in size for a lot of uses. The only thing I do not like about this is the price for what it is. I guess I can't complain since I will be using it for future clinical used, but that's my 2 cents on it

Works perfectly
I bought this to help stretch my back on the recommendation of a trusted friend, and it has done wonders for me from my hips to my shoulders. It has been a little too big for my wife to comfortably use, so if you are short or petite keep that in mind.

Wonderful self-help tool for thoracic spine mobilization
Using this is quite intense, but the rubber it's made out of keeps it from bruising you if you're careful. I've got a chronic ache in the vertebrae behind my sternum, and this tool has worked very well to help ameliorate and improve that. Search YouTube for a number of videos on how to use it. Kelly Starrett and the Manu Kalia ones are probably the best.I also bought the red OPTP wedge, but much prefer this one because it's a bit larger and an inch taller, which makes it easier to work with for me. It's easier to position and less likely to slip or stick to my back (I use it against bare skin) when I move it up my spine to other vertebra, and provides a slightly greater range of mobilization.
