What Stick Users say...
!!!!!!!
I purchased the Marathon model of The Stick last Thursday at the Ottawa
Marathon sports expo 2007. I'd like to pass on my thanks and
compliments to you on such a great training tool. I was experiencing pain and
tightness in various muscle groups, mostly the calf muscles, from all of my race
training, but by Sunday morning I felt 100% ready for the half marathon. I had
excellent results in the race, and I owe it to your product.
Feel free to use my testimonial above on your website (or elsewhere), if you
wish. I have been raving about The Stick to all of my runner friends, urging
them to try it out, too.
Thanks very much again for everything.

Hi Rob,
It is Jim following up on the phone call about the little Stick. As I mentioned,
I am the shoe buyer at
Frontrunners, and a marathoner (reigning Canadian champ) to boot. I was put
onto TheStick by a gentleman who used to train with Abdi Bile, the Somalian
world 1500m champion from years ago. The
whole Somalian team used TheStick pre and post workouts. At any rate, I had
one in my closet at the time and pulled it out after talking to the man. I have
used TheStick religiously now for 7 years.
So ... long story short, I need to get a little (and more portable) Stick so
that I can look like a nerd at the local coffee shop.
Brilliant, thanks very much Rob! Have a fantastic weekend!

Hello Dr. Belcher and staff,
Thank You for the Posture Curve treatment tool! I was curious about it from your literature, but had not gotten around to placing an order. I have shared the literature with other therapists already. But now I can tell them and show them how it works. At age 15 I hurt my back at the L4-5 areas. I recovered rather well, but got back aches and lock ups when under emotional stress. Well I am now almost 57 (birthday is Tuesday the 28th) and I do feel stiff frequently. I use a therapy ball instead of a chair in my office to keep moving a bit. Yesterday, I tried the Posture Curve. In the bend over test: pre-use my finger tips were 5 inches from the floor. After one session they were 2 inches from the floor and after second session that evening my fingers were barely brushing the floor. After one session today my fingers are pushing into the floor. I bet the way I am going, my hands will be flat on the floor by the end of a week of use! Thank you for the delightful pre-birthday present that will definitely help me NOT feel my age!
Sincerely,
Jill Stuart Moncilovich, PhD, OTR/l

I bought the Flex Stick 3 weeks ago for my FMS and it has
already changed my life. Prior to
using the stick I had severe muscle spasms and my shoulder muscles had been as
hard as rock for a month even after deep muscle massages, and I was in severe
pain. After using the stick for 3 days (4 times a day, 5 minutes
each time) my shoulder
muscles were completely relaxed, I had only minor muscle spasms, and much of the
pain was gone. All my muscles were
relaxed - what a rush! Some of my
muscles are still sore as well as the tender and trigger points, however they
are becoming less and less sore with every day. The Stick has also enhanced my sleep which is an important
factor for those of us with Fibromyalgia. I
give myself a massage with the Flex Stick before bed which relaxes my muscles
and allows me to sleep better
I have shown my Flex Stick to many people including my Doctor and Chiropractor
who are both very interested in your product.
In the next few months I will be ordering additional Sticks for myself
and for FMS friends.
It is truely a wonderful product

My stick arrived at work yesterday, and immediately my nurse Lidia was
interested, (after I tried it on her back and shoulder) and I gave her your
number. then at home, my boyfriend was thrilled -- since I'm not the most
generous "back rubber" due to my tennis elbow, and then.....me! and so
far so good! I've printed out your
customized tennis elbow instructions, but prior to this I had already pretzeled
myself to make it work around my elbow, and it was good - and I tried the
hamstring and neck/shoulder blade, and it seems really truly wonderful, and so
so simple! next.....the cats!
Thanks, this was a worthwhile investment! Julie.
I was a little skeptical at first when I read about the
stick, I decided to give it a try, that was 6 weeks ago. Since then I've noticed
a gradual improvement in my muscle pain. I work on an offshore oil rig and am
offshore for 21 days at a time so you look for anything that will help take the
edge off so you can get through 21 consectuative 12 hour shifts in a fairly
stressful environment.
I've had fibro for 7 years and some pretty rough times but must keep on trudging
on to support wife and family. We must not give up hope, we can only help
ourselves because each of us are different and come from many diverse
backgrounds.

hi ...the stick came in last friday, but I was out of the office all day
and didn't get it until today.....it feels soooooo good.
I used it a little at work...went to my massage therapist this afternoon
and she didn't want to let me have it back....she loved it!!!
maybe we can chat soon.

Yes, I am so grateful to have discovered the stick.
I am now bending without agony and walking longer distances without too
much pain. I went 3 miles last
night and the night before. I have
been walking 2 miles a day before that since January (and have lost 26 pounds). I'm now normal weighted which is great too.
That helps the joints as well.
Stay well, Lisa :^)
I ordered the Stick, and I find it fantastic.
There are places you cannot even massage, but with the stick. I can get to them. I
don't have to ask anyone to give me a quick massage to get rid of those muscle
spasms anyone. The Stick does it
for me.
I am quite happy that I have found something that works
