"The only method that worked"

"I’ve done PT for my knee ten ways that haven’t worked. This method does. The exercises are simpler and more practical, and the tool that comes with this kit is exceptionally high quality — the blade makes the roller I used to use feel like a toy, and lets me replicate what a great PT does with their elbow on my own at home."

- Rod M., early adopter

"Love it"

"I love it. It's helped me bounce back much faster vs. doing it on my own."

- A.G., Alleviate App user

Built to Heal. Always at Your Side.

The Alleviate Massage Blade is designed to replicate the shape and strength of a physical therapist's hand. The brushed aluminum provides the right amount of friction and tactile feedback you need for an effective therapeutic massage.

Carry it with you everywhere, and apply it yourself to prepare for activities and massage away pain when you need an immediate relief.

   Rewrite the Pain Narrative   

Why Blade + Program Together

A complex joint, knee is easy to irritate again after an injury. Runner's Knee, or Patellofemoral Pain Syndrome, occurs when an inner thigh muscle called vastus medialis oblique (or VMO) switches off in response to pain signals. Working with outer thigh muscles, the VMO positions the kneecap (patella) in the correct location, so an imbalance between the inner and outer thigh muscles exacerbates the malalignment of the kneecap, causing more pain.

To stop this vicious cycle, we need to teach the brain and the VMO that activities won't cause pain - by giving them multiple successful experiences. This is why in the Runner's Knee Guided Recovery Program, you'll never exercise through pain. Rather, you always use the Alleviate Massage Blade to activate your VMO first, so it's ready to take the challenge and succeed.

Designed by a former pro team PT, the Runner's Knee Essentials are your go-to tool to rewrite the pain narrative, so you can keep moving while you recover, one step at a time.

"Huge difference in just 5 days"

"I've dealt with Plantar Fasciitis for years...nothing relieved my pain as quickly as Alleviate! After just five days, I noticed a huge difference in how I felt getting out of bed in the morning...my lower legs feel better, my feet feel better and the mobility in my toes feels more fluid."
