How it works

Shins & lower legs

Use gentle pressure through the muscular tissue beside the shin rather than directly over the bone. Keep contact controlled and build slowly.

Recommended pressure type

K

Knuckle

Best starting point for this zone.

The muscle beside the shin bone is narrow, so broad, steady contact works best here. A knuckle point spreads pressure evenly without concentrating force on the bone.

Use safely

Begin with light pressure and increase gradually only while it remains comfortable. Stop if you feel sharp or increasing pain, numbness, tingling, dizziness, or unusual weakness.

How to use

Step-by-step guide

Follow the steps in order, from setting up the tool to working through the area.

  1. Get Into Position

    Sit with leg supported

    Rest your lower leg in a comfortable position.

  2. Find the muscle

    Place the tool just to the outside of your shin bone.

  3. Avoid the bone

    Keep beside the shin, not directly on it.

  4. Work the Length

    Start light

    Apply gentle pressure first, then increase gradually.

  5. Move toward the ankle

    Work slowly from below the knee downward.

  6. Avoid joints

    Stay clear of the bony areas around the knee and ankle.
