Heart
Block
Stretches
chest; extends upper spine;
counteracts humpback;
deepens breathing; relieves
menstrual cramps, constipation;
stimulates kidney function.
Our Heart
Block and Heart
Bench share the same
profile. But the Heart
Block creates a more intense
stretch than the Heart
Bench because it extends
your chest crosswise as well as
lengthwise.
The
Heart Block is
a fulcrum over which your ribcage and
shoulders can open. By
pressing your upper spine into the
center of your body, the
Heart Block stretches your
chest lengthwise, from neck to navel.
Since the Heart Block is
less than 4" wide, it fits between
your shoulder blades, so your chest
also opens from side to side.
These
chest
stretches
will deepen your breathing, soothe
stress, cultivate lung tissue
elasticity, optimize metabolism,
develop spinal flexibility, and
counteract humpback (but probably
won't ensure eternal life).
The Heart
Block also stretches, tones and
nourishes your abdominal organs,
relieves menstrual cramps and
constipation, and stimulates kidney
circulation, just like the Heart
Bench. We round all of the
edges and sand the Heart Block
smooth so it is a pleasure to touch and
behold.
We make a High Heart Block and a Low Heart
Block. We recommend that you
order the Low Heartblock, unless
your spine is very flexible. Please call
415/285-9642 if you want advice about
which is best for you.
Both the High
and Low Heartblocks are made of
solid mahogany and include the Heart
Block Usage Guide,
a guidebook that explains how to use
and care for the Heart
Block.
