The staff at\u00a0The\u00a0California Foundation for Independent Living Centers<\/a>\u00a0(CFILC) who work with the Ability Tools program are no strangers to using assistive technology (AT) themselves.<\/p>\n

As part of the annual Ability Tools tradition, some of our staff members are sharing their favorite AT devices and tools this year.<\/p>\n

Pressure Point Massage Hook<\/h2>\n

I couldn\u2019t image my life without assistive technology (AT). I use so many different types of assistive technology it is very hard to choose just one. But the AT that I am currently in love with and I use the most is my hooked pressure point self back and neck massager.<\/p>\n

Due to a genetic condition and an old neck injury I live with chronic pain and this device allows me to relieve some of that pain while having to sit for long periods of time. I use it at the office, while I\u2019m stuck in traffic, and at home. I owe my independence and comfort to AT!”<\/p>\n
