Myofascial Pro R+ Series
4 Piece Set 

Description: R+ Series IASTM Myofascial Pro  Set Includes: R+ M tool, the R+ S tool, the R+ L Bar, Trigger Point Tool.  Inc. Sanitary Tray & Zipper Case.  

Detailed Profile Features / Individual Tool Descriptions

R+ M Tool: Designed for medium 4-8,” tissue strokes. Examples of medium anatomical targets are the upper arm, neck, superficial back muscles, and leg muscles. The R+ (M) has a sharper “scanning” concave edge on top with is most sensitive for locating scar/fibrous tissue and fascial restrictions. Additionally the scanning edge is excellent for superficial fascial release and improving range of motion. On the bottom is a traditional convex IASTM edge for routine treatment. At the tip of the instrument is a rounded “prow” that is designed for deeper point release than a longer contact allows. R+ M Tool Weight: 9.5oz and Dimensions: L 9" x W 1-1/4" x D 1/4"
R+ S Tool: Designed for small 1-4,” tissue strokes. Examples of small anatomical targets would be thumb, wrist, forearm, hand muscles: foot & ankle muscles; deep neck and facial muscles; or, any larger muscle or joint capsule where you want focused treatment. For smaller, detailed IASTM application it becomes critically important to have an ergonomic tool with a secure grip, and there is no comparison when comparing the R+ (S) to “gua sha” shaped instruments for detailed soft tissue work. R+ S Tool Weight: 6.5oz and Dimensions: L 6-1/2" x W 1" x D 1/4"
R+ L Tool: Designed for long, over 8,” tissue strokes in the large muscles of the back, thigh, and leg (traps, erectors, glutes, hams, quads, calf). The R+ L gives you the benefit of a shorter accessory handle that stays out of the way when working around a client on the table (no handle bumping the table when working into medial or lateral areas on a supine patient). Also, in addition to the traditional long bar IASTM edge on the concavity, there is wider radius “wave” profile that locks in for deep penetrating tissue waves. In 20 years of clinical experience Dr. Matt and colleagues have found that the traditional IASTM edges on many bar tools are too sharp for working past superficial layers. The perfect solution was to keep the traditional sized edge on the concavity and designed a “softer” wider edge on top for the deeper layers. R+ L Bar Weight: 14oz and Dimensions: L 14" x W 1-1/8" x D 1/4".
Trigger Point Tool: Trigger Point Tool: The most popular massage geometry of all time was given the first stainless steel “upgrade” by Dr. Matt/Myo-Bar in 2009. Not only was “thumb” fatigue eliminated, but detection of trigger points/fibrous tissues was made much easier vs. plastic massage tools. R+ TRP Tool Weight: 5.5oz and Dimensions: L 6" x D 1/2".
Extras Included:  FDA Clean Surface Organizer Tray (compare to unsanitary foam organizers); Cordura Zipper Travel Case; Myofascial Oil & Cleaner Samples- cleaner & oil USA only, due to customs ban on shipping fluids;  45 page IASTM Technique Primer PDF Download; Free Priority Shipping in the US (Discounted $20 International Shipping).

Benefits Of The R+ Series

A Solid Grip
The Red Handles
Your hand squeezes a comfortable and familiar sized handle. Each tool is equipped with a non-slip grip, so you don't have to worry about gripping the sharp edge of an odd shape, which is a common problem of many IASTM and Gua Sha tools.
Balance Point
Balance Point/Finger Rest
The balance point acts as a pivot point for better leverage, consistency, and control. Whether you are using the top or bottom edge, this feature will allow the index or middle finger to guide the tool comfortably with a secure hold.
Different Edge Sizes
Small and Larger Radii
"Sharper" narrow edges are good for scanning, superficial tissue warming, & release. "Traditional" edges are good for most IASTM treatments. "Wide" edges are best for the deep layers of muscles, or sensitive muscles like the front of the neck.
Quick & Easy Cleaning
Smooth Surface for Cleaning
Emollient stays on the treatment side of the instrument, so your hand and the red grip stays clean. After treatment, only a spritz with sanitizer and a wipe down with a paper towel is all that is needed to prepare the tools for the next use.
Advanced "L" Bars
Better Two-Handed "L" Bars
L Bars have a "Wave" profile on the top of the tool for deep & comfortable strokes. The bar also has a trimmed handle which stays out of the way when rotating into the adductors or when treating a patient's medial/lateral muscle groups on a table.
Scaled To Anatomy
Each Tool has a Purpose
We made sure our profiles don't repeat. Each instrument has a convexity/concavity that scales with anatomy. "L" is bigger than "M" which is bigger than "S." You will always have the perfect sized tool for the target anatomy you are treating.

Ordering Information


American Made Quality, from Southwest Wisconsin. We are not re-sellers of imports... we are here to support both the clinical use and our manufactures lifetime warranty (which includes free refurbishment for any reason). Before the lifetime warranty kicks in, you have a 45 day “for any reason” 100% money back return guarantee.


No Redundancy of Tools or Profiles. Myo-Bar profiles are original, individually handcrafted, and scaled to anatomy so that only one instrument is usually necessary for a given treatment area. Many competitor sets have redundant "shapes." Extra tools are a waste of money if they don't perform a unique application.


Improved Ergonomics. Myo-Bar incorporates balance points and grip features in every single product. Familiar Gua Sha and Graston profiles were terrible to grip, often slipping out of the hand or causing fatigue in the fingers.


Better Results with Superior Edge Finish. Each 304 solid stainless steel instrument is hand finished to perfection so that each edge has a micro-radius and transitions between profile features are smooth. This prevents abrasion and injury to the skin and assures maximum comfort and superior clinical results.


Clinical Support. Dr. Matthew Hajzl, designer of all the Myo-Bar profiles and soft tissue practitioner for 20 years offers a Technique Primer and is available by email or phone when you need guidance with your treatment for any reason.


Free Extras. FDA approved sanitary tray/tool organizer + 40 page PDF Technique Primer. All sets of two or more tools include Cordura® zipper case with embroidered logo. Myofascial oil & cleaner samples for domestic orders.

Matthew Perry DC, LMT

The dual edges are awesome. But mostly I love how comfortable it is to hold. These tools are extremely well crafted.

Doug Stelling

Very helpful information regarding tool purchase, use, techniques and tips.

Lynsey IASTM Practioner

​Excellent quality instrument , very happy customer..:)

Byron Smith LMT

I have purchased about 6 different configurations of the Myo-Bar instruments; on selected clients with either specific fascial restrictions or ischemic soft tissue areas, I find the Myo-Bars extremely effective. One of the main advantages of using the various instruments is that feedback resonance from the medical grade stainless steel is far superior to manual feedback; the Myo-Bars also allow leverage and pressure without tiring and damaging your hands. The Myo-Bars are well made, ergonomic and effective on selected clients. The Myo-Bars were shipped with good quality, attractive, protective pouches, which has keep the instruments in good order when not in use.

Dallen

I have had other tools. They never quite felt comfortable in my hands. My wrists seemed to be at awkward angles. These tools have saved my joints and gives me the ability to get deeper is some difficult places. I love my tools!

Stephen Riley IASTM Practioner

Thanks, these bars make my job much easier as they are great quality and well made with excellent results. On every treatment clients reported excellent results.

Benjamin Muir B.Sc. Chiro. & MC

​I have been using Myo-bar tools since 2011 and they have always been a pleasure to use. I've have seen them evolve, but with the constants of ergonomic design, great craftsmanship, superb customer service and value for money. They just feel great in the hand compared to their competitors and get great results clinically.

Tim

​I use the longer bar quite a bit on larger muscle groups like upper traps, quads, calves and IT bands. I find this one very useful.

Odessa Torres

Better equipped for hands than Graston tools.

Myo-Bar Customer

Greater effectiveness with adhesion/scar tissue breakdown, saving my hands from some hard work.

Caly Fiallos

I prefer them to Smart Tools.

Lauren Podiatric Medicine

I feel I can offer my clients another type of treatment which can be implemented easily in their session. Clients notice an instant reduction in pain as well, which is brilliant for customer satisfaction!

Pat Bodnar LMT

I bought my first Myo-Bar hoping to rejuvenate my left thumb. I have been doing massage for decades and wear and tear have taken their toll on my longevity, my pain level, my ability to work as much as I need to. Myo-Bar self-treatments have changed my massage life... lengthening my productivity by 1 1/2 years so far and I'm not done yet. I have slowly integrated a short treatment here and there during massage... the tools get so much done with so little pressure and time. Thank you.. I am very satisfied and know that two other LMT's where I work use Myo-Bar also.
