What is the difference between the Pro and Home versions?
The Pro version, with its smooth surface, is particularly suitable for professional use in practices etc., as it can be quickly wiped clean.
The Home version is a little softer due to the flocking.
In terms of hardness, size and weight, both versions are identical.
How do I use Cranibas correctly?
Please note: The ARTZT thepro Cranibas therapy mat is a therapeutic aid and is not intended as a substitute for a doctor's visit or osteopathic or physiotherapeutic advice/treatment. Consult your doctor or physiotherapist before using ARTZT thepro Cranibas.
ARTZT thepro Cranibas is a product developed by practitioners without a scientific background. The applications are based solely on experiences with previous patients and do not claim to be generally valid.
The duration of application should not exceed 5 minutes at the beginning and then be slowly increased. The period should not exceed 15 minutes. Shorter and more frequent applications (e.g. 10 minutes each morning and evening) are preferable to longer application phases.
If severe pain occurs during use, discontinue use and consult a healthcare professional.
How to put it on: Sit on a stable, even surface (e.g. floor or exercise mat). Place both bumps of the Cranibas at the lower edge of the back of your head, at the level of the base of the skull, or approximately at the hairline. The large hollow faces upwards.
Laying on your back: Place the large hollow of the Cranibas on the back of your head. Tilt your head back until Cranibas touches the back of your neck. Hold this position and carefully move into a supine position. Stretch your legs if possible. Cranibas must be in full contact with the underlying surface or the floor.
Relax: Now let go of Cranibas. It is perfectly normal to feel a gentle increase in pressure and this is a sign of the gentle stretching at the base of the skull. Remain in this position for a maximum of 15 minutes.
Please note the internal application instructions.
Does my height play a role when using Cranibas?
Your height does not play a role when using the Cranibas. It should only not be used on small children, as their necks are still too small.
A doctor or physiotherapist should be consulted before using it on children.
Can Cranibas be used during pregnancy, for back pain, diabetes or high blood pressure?
Pregnancy: Yes, Cranibas can be used during pregnancy to relax the cervical spine and neck muscles. However, please note that if you feel unwell or experience pain, you should consult your doctor, midwife or physiotherapist.
Back pain: In principle, Cranibas can also be used for back pain and can help to relax the muscles. However, a doctor or physiotherapist should be consulted before use in the case of acute back pain.
Diabetes and high blood pressure: Cranibas can also be used for diabetes and high blood pressure to relax the neck muscles and the cervical spine.
