How the Atlas product family was born

I have suffered from headaches and migraines since childhood, which is why I have been getting massages regularly for years. In 2021, while I was with a masseuse, I asked if his neck technique could be replicated with a device. He doubted that the device would be able to accurately reproduce the necessary pressure.

However, I owned a 3D printing company, so I decided to give it a try. I made a prototype in 24 hours and sent a picture of it to my masseuse – she was immediately enthusiastic. We worked on the idea together, and just a week later, Atlas Care and Atlas Touch were ready. My masseuse said that the device applied pressure in exactly the right place. That’s when I realized I wasn’t the only one who needed a product like this.
