Trigger Point Therapy Ball Set of 5 and an E-Book: Soma System Massage Therapy Ball Set for Deep Tissue Self-Massage, Myofascial Release and Yoga Therapy. Set of 5 with Mesh Bag.

I've been an LMT and a Pilates instructor since 1999. These tools are fantastic. For much of the last 17 years I've been an advocate of foam rollers and tennis balls for trigger point and myofacial work. I was introduced to Soma System at a Pilates conference and was hooked after trying it out at their booth! I have been using this set for the last 2 weeks primarily on my quadriceps, hamstrings and hip rotators which are full of TP's constantly giving me grief. I average once a day use in the morning with maybe 3 days of use after work. I've been incorporating the other tools as well. These tools improve self work beyond the norm. This massage ball set is great in that it provides several sizes for smaller areas and more precise work. I get better separation of the muscles using these vs traditional tools. I've been able to achieve larger and better controlled hip movements in my pilates practice as these TP's release. The videos were easy to follow and very helpful. I ordered most of the entire system and can't quite pick a favorite. The bag is a nice touch, they are easy to pack and travel with. Definitely a great addition to your self care regimen or a replacement for techniques that aren't quite working for you. For me the entire system is the missing link.

I have been having tension in my neck and shoulder muscle for years now.... pretty much ever since I got the 9 to 5 office job (except it's more like 9 to 9). Living a corporate dream, you know... A friend took Roman Torgovitsky soma system deep tissue self bodywork class at Perform Better Functional Summit and kept pushing me to check them out. There are five balls. Largest one is firmer than a tennis ball, but softer than lacrosse balls. The smaller four balls are like lacrosse balls, but oh my goodness - I never thought that the smalls ball out of this package could do so much! I used to pay over $100 for deep tissue massage and I could afford it only once a month. The problem though wasn't as much the money as finding he time to actually make it happen. Now, I get deep tissue massage with these balls several times a week... They are honestly addictive, cause it's so easy to squeeze into your evening, I'm pretty much craving it after work. I terms of relaxation vs. effort ratio, I would compare it to taking the hot shower, except you get way deeper muscle release. I have now started to sometimes use them before going to bed when my mind and body is still racing from the day at work, and it really calms my body and mind down.Plus, I have this one spot in my upper back that has been bothering me for years and massage therapists would work on it for a couple of mins each session. With these balls I can work on this one spot for 5-10 mins and after a couple of times working on it - I released that nagging spot and it no longer bothers me! Amazing! So I guess, do yourself a favor and stop waiting until you do some huge lifestyle change that will make you healthier. Start with a small but powerful fix, cause if I found the time and discipline to do it, pretty sure anyone could...

I bought these because I needed a smaller ball to get the area under my shoulder blades. Most massage ball sets I have seen start at 2 1/2", but this set has a 1 1/2", which is perfect. I'm happy I can finally get that spot! Diameters are approx: 7/8", 1 1/8", 1 1/2", 2", 2 1/2". The largest ball is a different material and a bit softer than the others. They all feel like standard rubber balls (and bounce like bouncy balls!). The balls are firm but not rock hard. The problem I have is the rubber/whatever picks up dirt/hair very easily. I'm usually using these on the hardwood floor of my home, so they have already look very dirty (pet hair sticks especially well).

I purchased these balls because my feet have really been bothering me. I am able to give myself a much deeper foot massage with these balls, then I could with my hands. For the past few weeks, I have been using the balls on my feet in the morning and evening, and I have found them to significantly help with the soreness in my feet and the overall tightness in my body. The largest ball ( about the size of a billiard ball) is soft and the other 4 are hard. I prefer the hard middle size ball for my feet. The smaller balls are good for the hands. The balls are of good quality, and the bag makes it easy for me to take them with me.

The last two years of finishing up my Ph.D. at Harvard University meant spending a lot (all?) of time sitting behind my computer without much movement. I noticed that I got restrictions in my quads when I run and started having some serious lower back discomfort. Even more problematic was the area between my shoulder blades that tended to get tense and painful after a long day of slouching over the laptop (at the library there were no tall-standing monitors to attach the laptop to). My health plan at Harvard suddenly cut the number of chiropractor sessions students can get per calendar year (from 35 down to 18), and so therapy had become unaffordable. Having discovered the Soma System, I started using the balls for 10 mins before going to bed. I use bigger balls on my quads, TFL (the tiny muscle in your thigh that gets cramped after a long day of sitting and over time can get shorter leading to chronic pain around your pelvis) and gluts, and use smaller balls along sacrum (that triangular bone at the end of your spine and the upper back part of your pelvis). Feel great afterwards and noticed that my sleep got much deeper. Very recommendable are also free online classes - you get a link to them after the purchase.

Perfecto Tal y como se describe. Muy bien presentado. Muy buena calidad. Soma system te manda pdf con vídeos instructivos. Así que muy contenta con mi compra, su atención, y calidad, te anima a comprarles mas productos.

Diese Bälle sind ein wunderbares Werkzeug für Massage. Man kann sich selbst auch massieren. Die Bälle kollabieren auch nicht wie ein Tenissball weil die gesetzt sind. Es gibt verschiedene Größen, was auch wunderbar ist. Diese Werkzeuge sind einfach toll.

I am a massage therapist and pilates instructor, so I have to take care not just of my body but also of my clients'. I always look for ways to excel in my practice and be really helpful. I've learnt a lot from soma system videos and from actual practicing their tools (I have bought almost the entire system). Speaking of this particular set, the small balls allow us to access the areas that are hard to reach and help feel where we hold most tension, and how tension and release of it affects our movement. The balls can be applied to any part of a body. They work as great on the feet as the spine. Using the balls in my pilates sessions helps my clients release their TPs, so they could move more freely and better control their movement.

Balls of differing firmness and size to effectively target different areas. So much more consistent in pressure than a tennis ball or other massage balls I've tried. I've found the smaller balls wonderful to release the area around my shoulders and upper chest and the larger ball is great for my back after a hard day's sitting. Same effects as a really good, deep massage. Will recommend to my therapy clients.

Sehr gute Möglichkeit für Selbstmassage um Verspannungen zu lösen. Die grösste Kugel ist weicher, die restlichen sind hart und damit besser für Handmassage geeignet. Ich bin sehr zufrieden, Kugel Set erfüllt seinen Zweck.
