Hip Hook (Mark)

point of contact should be longer

It seems to be helping me get loose. Time will tell

this includes hip hook 1, hip hook 2 (thought the second version might work better - nope!) and the range.

The item shows promise, but the customer service since the purchase has not. I need an informative, more respectable, professional-appearing receipt for my purchase in order to receive HSA/FSA coverage. Aletha has not obliged my request despite multiple emails.

When I have tried to use this, including a supervised physical therapist visit, it is/was difficult to get positioned properly. I have used 2-3 times and have had spasms in my back afterwards.

It did not relieve my SI joint pain.

After struggling with hip discomfort for at least over a year, I finally decided to spend the money for The Mark. I have been looking at the device for at least that long or maybe longer. I just thought the price was too high. I cannot believe the relief it gave me after only three days of use. I would say 98% of the discomfort is gone. I still use the device when needed. Guess you could say, money well spent.

Works

I'm trying to use it correctly, but I'm unsure if I am. Mostly just hurts my skin and doesn't help my back.

Does feel like a $200 dollar product unfortunately.

I find it challenging to find the exact position location for best results.
I will continue use for a few weeks before reporting any results

The bottom plate is not as heavy as it looks on the ads, so it does come up when you push down on the hook. I could probably find a sharp/pointy object to do the same.

Also FSA Feds does not reimburse without a letter of necessity.

I’m a lineman that has dealt with chronic back pain for several years. I’ve tried everything there is. I bought the Mark 10 days ago and have been using it 3 times a day for 5 minutes a side. I’m in disbelief that the pain is subsiding. So far I’m a huge fan!

Seems good. I haven’t yet used it enough to know. The concept makes a lot of sense to me. My main complaint is the price. It came in fancy packaging (kind of mimicking an Apple product). Not necessary given the importance of making this kind of thing available to the masses given how common and widespread back and hip issues are.

relieved, thankful and educated

NOt for me

I was desperately seeking the relief advertised on social media, but I never got the hip hook anywhere near my iliacus. After a while the soreness from searching for the placement made it to painful to keep trying.

So far this has been largely a waste of my money. I think the design leaves something to be desired.

not impressed at all. First of all when you position the hook and you try to push down to the floor the, the hook bends and goes to the floor without doing anything. another waste of money to help my low back and legs problem.

Was very skeptical, only because I’ve visited several doctors and none of them could tell me why do I have this pain or how to treat it. So in desperation I placed my order.

’ve struggled with low back pain on and off for about 15 years. I’ll be fine for 6–18 months, then whammo—one quick twinge and I’m down for 5 or 6 days. I believe in both new medicine and old medicine, so I’ve tried it all: OTC painkillers, stretching, chiropractic care, acupuncture, massage, tape, ointments—everything. These things help eventually, but the cycle always repeats, and I’m constantly waiting for the next flare-up.

Lately, my hips had become incredibly tight, and I chalked it up to aging. I lift, run, walk, and do Pilates, so I figured it just came with the territory. I just turned 50, and I know plenty of people my age who are just as active and don’t deal with hip or back issues—but I assumed they had better genes, a better diet, or stretched more than I did. Who even knows?

After my last massage, I showed my therapist where my pain was, and she mentioned it sounded like a tight SI joint. That was brand new to me—what the heck is an SI joint? Naturally, I went home and looked it up…and then social media started showing me ads for Aletha Health. I’m honestly so glad it did.

The explanations in the ads described exactly what I was experiencing. So, against my better judgment (after all, I’ve already spent thousands of dollars on the latest tools and fixes—what’s a couple hundred more?), I bought the Mark and the Orbit. And they DELIVER.

The Mark is very much a “hurts-so-good” tool, and the Orbit is the perfect finisher. When I tell friends about them, the first question I get is, “How do you know you’re hitting the right spot?” And the answer is simple—you just know.

When my products arrived, I was dealing with some hip flexor tenderness, so I used them gently at first. I was shocked (and thrilled) that the tightness and tugging sensation was gone after the very first night.

In my Pilates (actually Lagree!) classes, there have always been certain moves I modified—not out of fear or injury, but because I just knew my body wouldn’t do them. Since using the Mark and Orbit, I can confidently move into those once-challenging positions with ease.

I am truly grateful I found Aletha Health and these incredible tools. I tell everyone I know about them—and I genuinely mean that.

Initially it was painful due to the muscles being ~stuck together. It took time to ease the tension with the mark. After several days of breaking through the tightness I started to feel relief in my lower back.

It’s ok I get the idea but it fails to reach deep in the muscle behind the bone like I was really hoping for..
Disappointed really

Really does work. You get out of it what you put into it.

There is a definite learning curve to using the Mark. Took me about 6 days. I do use it every morning. While I most definitely feel significantly less pain after using it, it doesn’t last more than that day. I’m in a lot of pain by morning. I’m hoping that changes as time goes on. Though, I am forever grateful that I found the Mark. If I can relieve my disc and sciatica pain each morning, I’m happy.

Positive. The item takes some practice to use properly and effectively, but it definitely has some effect in addressing my health issues that stem from having a desk job.

Couldn’t tolerate the discomfort.

I have had trouble finding the right spots for this tool, and swhen I think I may have it, I experienced significant pain and burning sensation so I am not sure I am using it correctly. I watched the video and talked to some folks about what I was trying to do. I can’t say it is the product, it could easily be user error, but I have not had much success with it.

Ive had my eye on this tool for over a year- probably longer and felt my hips calling out- begging to feel what the mark claims to offer. First off I’m a tattoo artist so i spend alot of time at work sitting down and hunched over and In July 2025 i started training to run my first marathon. I wasnt stretching or strength training as much as i should have to keep up with the amount of miles i was running and then finally a few weeks before the event- i couldn’t get passed 1-2 miles without experiencing a pretty intense burning in both knees, it felt like the circulation was being cut off.. so after a few weeks of starting from the ground up, addressing all my weaknesses and imbalances- i just felt like there was so mych tightness in my hips and quads and I couldn’t reach no matter how much i focused on stretching. That’s when i finally gave in and ordered the Mark.. This is not an exaggeration and may not have been the smartest move but after using it for the first time- so much pressure was taken off my knees and of course my hips but i was amazed to see how it helped relieve the tension in my knees. I went for a run the very next day after having daily knee pain for the past month, I felt great and am happy to have a solution so i can now ease back in to it. The right way. So grateful.

I got the mark to address some lower back and core pain if been having. I'm a dentist and we often work in a ward positions. The mark worked well, I definitely over did it at first despite all the warnings to ease into it. I actually really like the ball that it came with as well. I have had the mark for a few weeks now and I have seen a definite improvement. I do think finding the right area is difficult even though there are lots of videos. Overall I feel it is worth the purchase and I'm sure I will continue using it.

I was a bit skeptical, having tried a million avenues to handle my back pain. This was the move. Noticeable improvement with the first use. I just wish I had bought it sooner.
