I can't believe how well this worked!
My massage therapist recommended this. I was having horrible problems with my hip. I used this twice and I am a new person! I haven't had to use it since.

Psoas release tool
Works for psoas release. Inexpensive.

No back pain!
This is so basic but it works. Relieved my back pain by releasing my psoas muscles. That said a hard medicine ball does that same thing and is cheaper so consider that before spending money on this unitasker.

Great Psoas Tool
I drape a multi-folded yoga blanket across the top of the two wedges to soften and spread the weight of the lower torso over the wedge. PLEASE, BE CAREFUL, you can easily hurt yourself. It helps if you are working with a professional who can teach and guide you when, where and how to release the entire illiopsoas complex. First, I place the wedges just above and inside the ASIS, then just below. I only use the breath, never muscle force! Usually, I keep my legs straight with toes turned under; arms crossed with head on my forearm, or on a second blanket. If that is too strong, try putting your weight onto bent forearms and your head up a bit. I am looking for a vertical lengthening, a horizontal widening, and a three dimensional spreading into the pelvic bowl, only using the breath. Please take it very easy, as an overstreched psoas can create problems that you don't want, including lower back aches and weakness lifting the front spine. That said, I love this tool but use it very sparingly. Less is more. Good luck!

does not really work
I've tried this item out many times in the months that I've had it. I did try to return it and was not able to. I took it to the gym and tried it out with other women in my class who have hip issues. No one really gets what it's supposed to do and our two teachers at the gym including my yoga teacher says that it's just a big plastic waste of money.

Effective
Perfect perch for cat loafing. Also, helpful in reducing muscle tension in people. I’ve found that it’s effective for releasing tension in the psoas muscles (extends from T-12 to femur on either side- ie lower back). If you’re experiencing tightness, especially from an imbalanced running gait or weightlifting, something like this will be really helpful.
