Neuromuscular therapy device and method

1. A neuromuscular therapy device, comprising:

a top unit comprising a pair of square pyramidal bodies separated by a central valley, wherein each of the pair of square pyramidal bodies comprises a top peak with vertices that are smoothly radiused; and

a base unit comprising a recessed platform, wherein the recessed platform corresponds and is configured to receive an entire bottom perimeter of the top unit.

2. The neuromuscular therapy device according to claim 1 , wherein the top peaks curve inward toward the valley.

3. The neuromuscular therapy device according to claim 1 , wherein the top unit is made of a thermoplastic elastomer.

4. The neuromuscular therapy device according to claim 1 , wherein the top unit has a shore durometer hardness in a range of between 27 and 45.

5. The neuromuscular therapy device according to claim 1 , wherein a distance between the top peaks is in a range of between 3.5 and 5.9 centimeters.

6. The neuromuscular therapy device according to claim 1 , wherein the top unit is configured to apply anatomical pressure to an erector spinae group, multifidus and short posterior sacroiliac ligaments and associated trigger points while avoiding the iliac crest and spine when the top unit is applied against a lower back of a user.

7. The neuromuscular therapy device according to claim 1 , wherein a height to side length ratio of the pyramidal bodies of the top unit is in the range of from 0.6:1.0 to 0.9:1.0.

8. A method of neuromuscular therapy, the method comprising:

placing a neuromuscular therapy device against a flat surface, the neuromuscular therapy device comprising a pair of square pyramidal bodies separated by a central valley, wherein each of the pair of square pyramidal bodies comprises a top peak with vertices that are smoothly radiused;

positioning a user on the neuromuscular therapy device to exert pressure against a therapeutic anatomical target of the user; and

disposing the neuromuscular therapy device onto a recessed platform of a base unit,

wherein the recessed platform corresponds and is configured to receive an entire bottom perimeter of the neuromuscular therapy device, and

wherein the therapeutic anatomical target comprises at least one of the erector spinae group, multifidus and short posterior sacroiliac ligaments and associated trigger points.

9. The method of neuromuscular therapy according to claim 8 , wherein the positioning comprises positioning the user on the muscle therapy device and shifting or rocking the user laterally such that the muscle therapy device hooks into a gap between a spinous process and transverse process in a back of the user.

10. A neuromuscular therapy device, comprising:

applying means for applying anatomical pressure to a user, the applying means comprising a pair of square pyramidal bodies separated by a central valley, wherein each of the pair of square pyramidal bodies comprises a top peak with vertices that are smoothly radiused; and

base means comprising a recessed platform for receiving an entire bottom perimeter of the applying means, wherein the recessed platform corresponds to the entire bottom perimeter of the applying means.

11. The neuromuscular therapy device according to claim 10 , wherein the top peaks curve inward toward the valley.

12. The neuromuscular therapy device according to claim 10 , wherein the applying means is made of a thermoplastic elastomer.

13. The neuromuscular therapy device according to claim 10 , wherein the applying means has a shore durometer hardness in a range of between 27 and 45.

14. The neuromuscular therapy device according to claim 10 , wherein a distance between the top peaks is in a range of between 3.5 and 5.9 centimeters.

15. The neuromuscular therapy device according to claim 10 , wherein the applying means applies anatomical pressure to a sub-occipital, erector spinae group, multifidus and short posterior sacroiliac ligaments and associated trigger points while avoiding the iliac crest and spine when the top unit is applied against a lower back of a user.
