The Pressure Positive Company is a family owned and operated business located outside of Philadelphia, PA. From the workshop and offices in a renovated 1850’s barn, orders are received and shipped to hospitals, rehabilitation clinics, health professional offices, distributors, specialty retail stores, gyms, training rooms and pain sufferers world wide.
The Pressure Positive Company has been manufacturing high quality massage tools that enrich the lives of people since 1979. The product line, the first massage tools of their kind to be made commercially available anywhere, is a perfect example of how the science supported the simplest of muscle pain treatment approaches.
Manual therapy professionals such as physical therapists, athletic trainers, massage therapists, chiropractors, and osteopaths use ischemic compression or deep sustained pressure on trigger points and sore muscles to cause the muscle to relax. Pressure Positive deep muscle massage tools allow both patient and caregivers to apply the same kind of compression to painful muscles as a regular part of everyday self care.
We understand stubborn muscle pain and how it can limit performance and inhibit function. Although there are many effective ways to approach muscle pain and dysfunction, it is our resolute commitment to personal health and well being through non invasive muscle therapies, including compression, exercise, stretching and strengthening, that guides us to design well crafted, simple devices that still continue to set the industry standard for manual deep tissue massage and self care tools. As an important adjunct to informed self care, the company supports the continuing instructional efforts of all qualified educators who teach the practical application of myofascial trigger point management and techniques to health professionals and how to integrate these protocols and concepts into their pain management practices. Additionally, the company recognizes the importance of evidence based science in the landscape of modern healthcare and supports the research and clinical attention to myofascial trigger points in neuro-musculoskeletal medicine that have contributed greatly to a better understanding of myofascial trigger points and their treatment world wide.
The goal of any manual therapy should be to train the patient to confidently and effectively self-manage their pain and dysfunction. We firmly believe that educating a patient or client about soft tissue pain and then offering an inexpensive, safe, simple and effective means to manage the dysfunction is the key to healing. Praised by both clients and health care professionals for their easy-to-use, proven design, self care massage tools from The Pressure Positive Company help extend professional therapy into ongoing, effective and practical self care.
