When you first use the Range, formerly the Nuckle, it might feel rather intense. This is especially going to be the case if you hold a lot of tightness in your upper body. Slowly but surely, this can be undone and released when using the Range consistently over time. But to get started, we recommend easing yourself into the pressure by using some of these modifications to help reduce the intensity of the tool.
These may include:
- While lying over the tool, interlace your fingers together and place your hands underneath the back side of your head to help control the weight of your head pressing down over the Range.
- Try placing a smaller pillow, a rolled up towel, or yoga block under the back side of your head to help reduce some of the weight of your head that is pressing down over the Range
- Try moving the Range to a slightly different spot along your neck muscles to where you can sufficiently relax under the pressure.
Remember to take deep breaths and stay relaxed as best as possible, holding the pressure for at least 90 seconds (or longer) to let the muscle release. As you get used to the pressure, you can then increase the pressure by reducing or removing the support used behind your head.
