Causes aside, the rise of many lower back pain relief products has helped service the need for relief right in the comfort of your own home. Here are a few of the top lower back pain relief tools we have found, and how they might be best for your case.
List Of Lower Back Pain Relief Products:
The list we are looking at today includes the following products. Yes, there are more products out there, and yes, we may be missing some important ones. But these are all hot products that work and could be the solution to your lower back pain.
QL Claw
This is our biased number 1 lower back pain relief product on the market. We created this from scratch to release every muscle that can contribute to lower back pain when tight - especially the Iliacus, Gluteus Medius, and QL muscles.
In terms of price and material, QL Claw is among the best bang for your buck. QL Claw runs in at the lower end of lower back pain relief product price at $69.99. It is made of a rubber-like material that allows for soothing deep tissue massage.
Chirp Wheel
You might know this one from Shark Tank or one of its thousands of video ads on social media. The Chirp Wheel is an advanced evolution of the traditional foam roller, with more focused pressure on the spinal erector muscles. This product comes in a 3-pack for different body types and pressure levels for lower back pain relief.
Hip Hook
The Hip Hook is a novel massage therapy tool designed to target to Psoas and Iliacus hip flexor muscles on the front of the body. These muscles tend to get tight and wrench on the lower back from excess sitting, and Hip Hook helps undo this.
In terms of price and material, Hip Hook is a premium item. With multiple materials and moving parts, the Hip Hook is on the high end of the spectrum running in at $199.99 at the time of writing this.
Pso-rite
The Pso-rite was one of the first muscle-specific massage tools on the market. Designed primarily to release the Psoas muscle, Pso-rite offers a durable, portable, deep-tissue massage tool when and where you need it.
Back Buddy
Back Buddy is a variation of the age-old Theracane product, with additional trigger point ends and a curvier shape. Back Buddy can hit about any muscle on the body, but I like it most for upper back tension. Get in all the nooks and crannies with this tool:
Massage Balls
Massage balls are the least targeted, the most shotgun approach of all lower back pain relief products. A massage ball can be anything from a high-end heated release ball to a tennis ball laying around your house. Massage balls are a good place to start and learn which areas of your body require massage. After some time, however, any of the tools above will provide a more sniper approach to lower back pain relief.
Posture Pump
Posture Pump is a posture-correcting apparatus that helps correct the alignment of the lower back and neck. This is the only product on this page that does not operate under the principle of massage/trigger point therapy.
