IASTM - “VivL® ” Therapeutic Hand-Saver
Introducing the “VivL® ” a bespoke hand crafted, “therapeutic hand saver”. This new tool will not only save your hands but offers the variety of depth, positioning and control required when mobilising soft tissues.
The “VivL® ” is ethically handmade in Wales and is currently available in Beech wood. Other hardwoods are available (price on request) and comes in a Blue Velveteen Drawstring bag. Each “VivL® ” has been initially ‘oiled’ to provide a long lasting matt finish which is water, heat & alcohol resistant.
NB Should you for any reason need to ‘clean’ the “VivL® ” ‘hand wash only in mild soapy water, followed by using a vegetable based oil and buff with a dry cloth to retain its patina. Should the surface of the “VivL® ” be damaged avoid contact with skin until professionally repaired to ensure a smooth surface.
This Soft Tissue Mobilising (STM) tool - “VivL® ” has been developed over a period of time, its size and weight optimising therapist efficiency . Its design offers a variety of concave and convex edges for comfort and control. The rounded edges allow’ sensitive’ work of restricted myofascial structures thereby reducing pain and tension.
The use of the “VivL® ” is thought to provide a mechanical advantage for the therapist by allowing deeper penetration and more specific treatment, while also reducing imposed stress on the hands.
Please note that each “VivL® ” is handmade and therefore wood colouring may vary. A variety of oils used during treatments will create a unique patina over time.
