Full-body relief with six features, including scraping, acupressure, and hot/cold therapy.

Story

After a little more than two years of development, we’re thrilled to share the Orijin Body Tool (OBT) with the Kickstarter community—a modern take on an ancient wellness practice designed to help you reach those hard-to-reach spots and leave you feeling utterly rejuvenated ✨.

History

Drawing inspiration from the ancient practice of Gua Sha, the Orijin Body Tool combines centuries-old healing techniques with a modern approach. Gua Sha, rooted in traditional Chinese Medicine, uses a smooth tool to release muscle tension, boost circulation, and support the body’s natural healing process. We’ve reimagined this practice with a sleek, ergonomic design, creating a versatile tool that not only relieves stress and rejuvenates the body but also elevates your daily wellness routine to a whole new level✨.

Specs

Did you know the body has 639 named muscles? And chances are, while you’re reading this, some of yours are working overtime—shoulders up to your ears, neck stiff, maybe even a clenched jaw? Sound familiar? It’s all thanks to fascia, the connective tissue that holds everything in place. Over time, repetitive motions, stress, and sitting too long (hello, desk life) cause both muscles and fascia to tighten up, leading to that all-too-familiar stiffness.

Not only does the OBT release muscle tension and stubborn knots, but it also loosens tight fascia, improving circulation, flexibility, and easing migraines and tension headaches. We’ve got your back—along with your neck, shoulders, and everything in between ?. The result? You’ll feel restored, revitalized, and more at ease with your body✨

Features

The OBT is available in two elemental material options: natural Jade gemstone and hypoallergenic Zamak alloy, both offering durability and therapeutic benefits. Each feature of the OBT is thoughtfully crafted to target specific muscle groups and pressure points, providing relief and recovery from the tension of everyday life ?.

Our Elements


Hot/Cold Therapy

The Orijin Body Tool, made from Zamak alloy, is ideal for hot and cold therapy due to its high thermal conductivity. For cold therapy simply submerge the OBT in ice water for 3-5 minutes (32°F/0°C), or for hot therapy, place the OBT in warm water (100°F-110°F/37.8°C-43.3°C) for 3-5 minutes. This allows the OBT to absorb and retain the temperature, providing soothing relief for muscle tension, headaches/migraines,  inflammation, and soreness.

The Orijin Body Tool sets itself apart by merging ancient techniques with modern design. Rooted in tradition and crafted with a sleek aesthetic, it’s both functional and visually striking. Made from high-quality Zamak alloy and Jade, it effectively relieves muscle tension and knots, providing targeted relief that helps you feel restored and ready to take on the day

How We Compare

The OBT Recovery Body Oil, made from 100% natural and scentless Argan oil, (included in every Kit in our rewards!) is the perfect companion to the Orijin Body Tool. Argan oil, known for its rich moisturizing and anti-inflammatory properties, allows the OBT to glide effortlessly across your skin, reducing friction while nourishing and soothing.

The pain is in the pudding… While the average massage in North America costs around $130 US per session (with high-end spas or specific therapeutic treatments potentially costing more), less than 20% of the 80% of adults who experience body or muscle pain actually seek professional help. With the Orijin Body Tool, we aim to relieve both your tension and your wallet, offering a convenient, affordable way to find relief in the comfort of your home.
