The Original
McKenzie®
Early Compliance™
Lumbar Roll
A comprehensive approach to treating and maintaining a healthy spine.
Robin McKenzie has devoted over 40 years to developing a system of examination and treatment for
non-specific spinal mechanical pain that has been recognized internationally and taught to thousands of
clinicians worldwide. McKenzie treatment is based on his theory that ultimately, most patients can
successfully treat themselves when provided the necessary knowledge and tools.
The Original McKenzie® Lumbar Roll
For over 25 years, these lumbar rolls have helped hundreds
of thousands achieve freedom from common low back pain.
Easily transportable, with removable, adjustable strap, The Original
McKenzie® Lumbar Roll secures to office chairs, automobile seats
and even around your waist! Strap contains latex.
Smaller diameter lumbar
roll for acute pain sufferers
or petite persons
For youth, petite
persons or those with
acute discomfort who
cannot tolerate a larger
size lumbar roll, the Early
Compliance™ Roll can be used as
a starting point until acute pain
symptoms are relieved. You can then
switch to the larger Original McKenzie® Lumbar
Roll, SuperRoll™ or D-Section™ Lumbar Roll. Strap

TAPING
Osteoporosis. You don’t have to live with it.
KINESIO
®
Researchers today estimate that approximately 1 out of 5 American women over the age of 50 have
osteoporosis, the most common type of bone disease. And, approximately half of all women over the age
Taping
of 50 will sustain a fracture of the hip, wrist or vertebra (bones of the spine). As we age, bone tissue can
become weaker, resulting in brittle, fragile bones more prone to fractures, even without injury. But there
are measures you can take to help prevent this from happening.
Kinesio® Tex Gold™
Kinesio® Tex Gold™, with the original ‘wave-pattern’
adhesive design and elasticity similar to skin, is the
standard for elastic therapeutic taping techniques.
Kinesio® tape provides a gentle epidermis lift to facilitate
lymphatic drainage and healing. Kinesio Taping® techniques can
also be used to reeducate the neuromuscular system, improve
blood/lymph circulation, relieve pain and provide comfort and
stability. All colors are water-resistant and latex free.

The Knead
Dance Anatomy
The Knead is a multi-adaptable soft tissue mobilization tool that provides
myofascial release of tension stored in the sheets of fibrous tissue surrounding
and supporting the muscles, called the fascia.
The Knead spares fingers and wrists from excessive pressure
as force is directed toward the user’s larger muscle groups
in the shoulder and trunk. You can essentially rest your
hand on top of The Knead—in an ergonomic and
functional hand position—with minimal to no hand grip
needed. The patient receives the desired pressure,
with limited effort needed on the user’s end.
The Knead can be used over clothing or directly
on the skin with a massage lubricant. It cleans
easily with soap and water, is UV-protected and
is extremely durable.

Foot Management
Heel pain? You may have Plantar Fasciitis
If you have stabbing or burning heel pain when taking your first few steps in the morning or after physical
activity, you may suffer from a common condition called plantar fasciitis. Plantar fasciitis is caused by
tightening of the tissue (the plantar fascia) along the bottom of your foot that connects your heel and toes,
often occurring while sleeping. The good news is, recent studies have shown that a regimen of isolated
stretching of the plantar fascia can help you overcome the chronic pain without surgery or drugs. As
always, it’s a good idea to check with your medical professional before starting any exercise program.

superior lumbar support that provides the ultimate
in function and comfort. The plush, velvet-soft
