Find answers to common questions about the PiLON.
The PiLON is the newest self-massage tool on the market. Its patented design mimics the hand and elbow of a massage therapist.
The PiLON's patented design mimics the hand and elbow. This makes it far more effective for pressing deep into muscles than any other massage tool.
Before you go to bed, when you wake up, before your workout, during and after.
The iliopsoas is a group of major flexor muscles located at the hip joint, responsible for stabilizing the hip and lower back during activities like walking, running, and standing. Prolonged sitting can cause the iliopsoas to become tight, leading to pain in the leg or lower back, often referred to as sciatica. These muscles can do a lot of compensating for imbalances, tightness, and injuries!
The psoas muscle connects the lower half of your body to the upper half. If your psoas is tight, it will pull on your lower back.
The general area of this muscle group can be found by tracing a line from the nipples down to the bony point on each side of your hips, following the shorthand “nips to hips.” Generally, these muscles bunch at roughly a 2" radius inward from your hip bones, but they traverse the length of your torso - extending from your ribcage all the way down to the bottom of your pelvis.
You can use the PiLON for a variety of needs. Common muscles targeted are the quadriceps, latissimus dorsi, and iliopsoas (for hip and lower back pain). Users apply force to target areas in two main ways:
1. Direct pressure: Hold the PiLON and apply pressure to the target area.
2. Bodyweight: Lie on the ground or lean against a wall, placing the PiLON under your body to apply pressure to the target area.
