See the Difference!

Your hip flexors have two distinct muscles—the psoas and iliacus. Tools with identical tips only release one. Small rotating tips can't generate enough pressure for deep psoas work. Multi-piece systems are bulky and require swapping pieces. Core Nexus solves all three: purpose-built tips, compact design, and smooth rotation for complete release in one tool.

See Why Core Nexus Outperforms Other Tools

We tested every major psoas, iliacus, & hip flexor release tool on the market. Here's what we found—and why Core Nexus solves the problems they all share.

Tools with Identical Tips

Tools with identical dual tips look like they target both muscles, but both tips are the same size and angle. The broader psoas gets pressure, but the iliacus—a narrow muscle tucked inside your hip bone—requires a smaller, differently-angled tip. And without rotation? You're stuck with static pressure that limits depth and effectiveness. With identical tips only one muscle gets released. Your iliacus stays tight. Your relief stays incomplete.

Core Nexus Solution:

Purpose-built tips—one designed for your psoas, one for your iliacus—with smooth rotation for deeper, more effective release.

Small Curved Tip Tools

Small curved tip tools feature a narrow, curved tip that can reach the iliacus tucked behind your hip bone—but that same small tip can't effectively release the broad, deep psoas muscle. The psoas requires a wider, taller tip to penetrate deep enough and distribute pressure across its surface. One tip can't do both jobs, leaving you needing a second tool for complete relief.

Core Nexus Solution:

Two purpose-built rotating tips—one broad and tall for deep psoas release, one narrow and curved to reach your iliacus—delivering complete hip flexor relief with smooth rotation on each muscle.

Bulky Multi-Piece Systems

Multi-piece systems require swapping attachments between muscles—interrupting your flow and turning relief into a chore. Worse, they use static pressure without rotation, limiting how deep and effective each release can be. Assembly hassles & incomplete release? That's a poor combination.

Core Nexus Solution:

All-in-one compact design with smooth rotation. Switch between muscles instantly—no pieces to swap, no assembly required, and deeper release with every session.

The Core Nexus Advantage

Core Nexus solves what other tools can't: purpose-built tips for both the psoas and iliacus muscles, smooth rotation for deeper more effective release, and a compact all-in-one design for complete hip flexor relief—without the compromises other tools force you to make.

Core Nexus Solution:

Experience the only tool that combines dual purpose-built rotating tips with compact portability. Complete hip flexor relief, perfected.

This focused approach leads to greater flexibility and reduced pain in the hips and lower back. Plus, the Core Nexus eliminates the need to purchase and use multiple tools, offering convenience both in practice and when you need relief on the go.

    Core Nexus vs Hip Hook vs Pso-Rite Table

  • Your hip flexors are like a two-part engine – the psoas and iliacus. The Core Nexus is like having the specialized tools to tune up BOTH parts, ensuring your body is balanced and pain-free. Many products ignore that a healthy psoas and iliacus in tandem is vital for lasting relief.

  • The Core Nexus isn’t just about temporary relief. Its combination of precision targeting, consistent deep pressure, and the ability to customize angles allows you to break the cycle of recurring pain by addressing the muscles at their root. This level of focused release is simply not achievable with generic stretches or tools that don’t account for individual anatomy.

  • Lacrosse balls or tennis balls might offer temporary relief, but they lack the size and shape to truly access the deep psoas or target the iliacus within the pelvis. The Core Nexus’s patent-pending design ensures pinpoint accuracy and consistent pressure, something no ball can replicate.

  • The Core Nexus is designed for safe, effective self-use. However, as with any new exercise or tool, it’s wise to consult your doctor if you have any health conditions, or if you are pregnant. We want to ensure the Core Nexus is the perfect fit for your needs.

  • Everyone’s body responds differently. Some people experience immediate relief, while others may need a few consistent sessions to notice a significant shift. The Core Nexus addresses the root cause of tension, so regular use is key for lasting change, not just a quick fix.

  • For the fastest, most sustainable results, we recommend:

    Daily Core Nexus Use: 2 minutes per muscle offers deep release for immediate pain reduction.
    Posture Focus: Be mindful of your posture throughout the day, aiming to keep your spine in its natural curve as much as possible, especially in pain-free positions.
    Complementary Movement: Our website offers guidance with illustrations and videos demonstrating exercises for proper use of the Core Nexus. A user guide with additional illustrations and video tip links is also included with your purchase.
