For mid shoulders or mid/ low back pain relief simply....
(NEXT PAGE)
Place the bacupressure between your back and the car seat as shown (horizontally). Carefully position acupressure balls on either side of the spine. Paying attention to not having the acupressure balls directly on the spine. Firmly push arms straight out against the steering wheel allowing your upper body to push against the Bacupressure into the seat. The pressure you use, determines how deep you will be able to work the muscle tissue.
While using your body weight (pushing against the bacupressure) slowly roll back and forth along the sore muscle area, or reposition the bacupressure until you have found the most sensitive spot of the muscle. This is the muscle spasm (or trigger point) that can create referred pain patterns to various parts of the body. Once you have found the muscle spasm using the bacupressure body massager, keep constant direct pressure on the spasm until the spasm releases.

You can repeat this several times and/or lighten the pressure and gently roll the bacupressure back and forth using your body positioning and body weight

For upper/mid shoulder pain relief simply....

Place the bacupressure between your back and the car seat as shown (vertically). Carefully position acupressure balls between the shoulder blade and the spine.

For hip or sciatica pain relief, simply...
NEXT PAGE
Place the bacupressure between your buttocks or lower hip and the car seat as shown (horizontally). Position acupressure balls (inside the Bacupressure) between the sacrum (side of the tail bone) and the top of the femur (thigh bone). Lean the hip firmly into the Bacupressure and slowly move the hip in small circles or roll back and forth into the Bacupressure. This will provide deep tissue (Neuromuscular/Trigger Point Therapy) to the sacral ligaments and the Piriformis (lateral hip rotator muscle).
Firmly push arms straight out against the steering wheel using your hip to directly lean and push against the Bacupressure. The pressure you use, determines how deep you will be able to work the muscle tissue for pain relief.

Note:
Commonly the Piriformis muscle is mistaken for Sciatica because of its location in the body. It is deep to the Gluteus (buttock) muscles and lays directly on top of the Sciatica nerve. When the Piriformis muscle gets to a hypertonic state (very tight) it bears down on the Sciatic nerve giving the feeling of Sciatic pain or intense isolated pain in the hip joint. Referred pain commonly accompanies this in the front of the thigh (quads), knee or ankle.
True Sciatica would have referred pain down the back of the leg along with numbness.
The Piriformis muscle generally responds well to deep tissue (Neuromuscular/Trigger Point Therapy) after a few short sessions.

For leg pain including:
pain or numbness down the outside of the upper leg
back of the leg from the hips, quads to calves
pain in the knee (outside or inside)
pain in the ankle (outside or inside)
pain on the top of the foot
Simply position the Bacupressure...

against the wall as shown in the photo (vertically).
Turn your body sideways (about 2 feet away from the wall) so you can lean with your hip( using your entire body weight) into the acupressure balls of the Bacupressure Body Massager against the wall. Reposition the Bacupressure and slowly roll your hip back and forth until you find the point of spasm (most sensitive spot) in the muscle. Again, move the Bacupressure to areas shown in the diagram as pain patterns and hold until it releases.
While using your body weight (pushing against the bacupressure) slowly roll back and forth along the sore muscle area, or reposition the bacupressure until you have found the most sensitive spot of the muscle. This is the muscle spasm (or trigger point) that can create referred pain patterns to various parts of the body. Once you have found the muscle spasm using the bacupressure body massager, keep constant direct pressure on the spasm until the spasm releases.

You can repeat this several times and/or lighten the pressure and gently roll the bacupressure back and forth using your body positioning and body weight to work the deep tissue, producing pain relief.
Note:
The iliotibal Band or Tensor Fasciae Latae (see diagram) acts as a knee stabalizer on the outside of the thigh. When this area spasms or tightens, it causes pain along the inside and outside of the knee and can cause severe pain and numbness along the outside of the thigh. Place the Bacupressure along the entire area and lean into it as much as possible. By rolling the Bacupressure back and forth and holding the pressure until it releases will help greatly with pain relief. This is a very sensitive area and can be slow to respond, but generally the more pressure you can use, the quicker it responds. Isolated stretching is also strongely reccomendeed.
Very common problem among cyclist.
