The Beastie Base is more than just a place to park your Beastie when you\'re done using it. It\'s a fundamental, patent pending part of the Beastie system, and it provides these distinct benefits: ElevationThe Base elevates the Beastie an additional 1/2" above the surface, to better access hard-to-reach areas of your body. IntensificationThe Base orients the Beastie so that one of its bumps is held firmly in a straight-up position. That guarantees maximum penetration of the muscle. StabilizationThe Base prevents the Beastie from rolling. That facilitates more controlled massage techniques, and it also allows you to work off the side of the Beastie to generate higher shear forces in the muscle tissue. RetentionThe Base retains the Beastie so that it can more easily be used in off-the-floor applications. AttachmentIn addition to being a free-standing support, the Base serves as an adapter to attach the Beastie to either a wall or the Beastie Wall System.
