Talking to sports massage therapist, John G. Louis, this week.

He’s here to introduce his new product, the Hall of Fame™ self-massage tool. The patent-pending “self-manager” massage tool provides a focused and individualized pressure point that instantly delivers measurable results and benefits.

Here are some features that make the Hall of Fame™ self-massage tool distinctive:

Developed by a licensed Hall of Fame™ Sports Massage Therapist, John G. Louis, CEO of Acuforce International, Inc, a therapeutic product line, is a 42-year veteran Licensed Massage Therapist for major sports league players and Director of the Massage Therapy Center of Winnetka.

Endorsed by Frank Thomas:The patent-pending Hall of Fame™ Massage Toolis endorsed by Frank Thomas, the 2014 Major League Baseball Hall of Fame inductee.

Trigger-point therapy: The Hall of Fame™ massage tool is handy for self-massage allowing the user, both professional and consumer alike, to perform effective therapeutic techniques, such as trigger-point therapy & muscle release, for the back, neck, shoulder, hips, and more.

Stainless steel quality: Shape like a wide-angle cane, the rigid bar is the only self-massager made of high-quality stainless steel, not plastic. At the same time, the soft-coated plastisol metal treatment tip accurately replicates a therapist’s thumb.

A pioneer and leader in sports medicine and rehabilitation. John is an inventor of numerous product concepts, educator and therapist for some of the world’s best professional athletes. He was inducted into the Massage Therapy Hall of Fame in 2022.

John founded Massage Therapy Center of Winnetka in 1989. The clinic is rated the best on the North Shore of Chicago. Located on Green Bay Road in Winnetka, Illinois, the clinic employs 5 certified and licensed massage therapists. In 1999, John created Acuforce International, Inc. a company that markets his patented soft-tissue therapy tools. A division of that company called Chocolate Milk Productions produced “Infant Massage Lessons for Dads”. An instructional DVD that teaches fathers how to bond with their babies while helping the infants to sleep better and develop more rapidly. The program has won 2 video excellence awards, 2004 Aurora Gold Award and the 2005 Telly Award.

John just launched a product in 2020 called the Freebounder Fitness and Rehab Machine. The machine is patented and is easily the most comprehensive machine ever created for the product space.
