OPTP Franklin Method Textured Ball Set – Green Massage Balls, 3 1/2" Pair

These are great for rolling out your arches - especially if you have delicate or sensitive feet. Bought them for my sister because the ball I use with nubs on it hurt her feet. These do not.

This product was suggested by my husband's physical therapist after he worked with their myofascial release ball, that was exactly this one. We ordered this & it arrived fast, too. He has pain in his hip that this really helped not only that but makes his back feel good too. However, like anything you buy it really matters if you use it often to have some relief. We would suggest this myofascial release ball to others that need relief from pain or stiffness, it does work. We're grateful this product is offered for people to buy other than just physical therapists.

great for. your feet, try to use everyday. Great to stretch your feet and use for balance

So, I’m doing PT for my right foot - excruciating tendinitis. PT + home exercises are working so well, and to keep the benefits I use these balls as instructed when watching my nightly movie. Very helpful for the pain that manages to accumulate during the day. Big thumbs up.

Work great, only problem is how to inflate them when they go flat very quickly.

We use these Franklin balls in our Pilates classes. After several sessions of exercising or feet, ankles, and toes, the range of motion and flexibility in my toes has improved. Having inherited my grandfather’s feet, they’ve never been very nice looking. Then in the last few years the 2nd and 3rd toes have been curling due to arthritis. Using the Franklin balls once or twice a week is making my toes noticeably straighter. I bought the balls so I can do the exercises at home and give one to my son, who is a runner, and can benefit from them as well.

My physical therapist told me about these unusual balls. He had me use them to loosen knots and increase blood flow in my arm. When he saw how much I liked them, he gave me the brochure to read and I ended up buying my own set. The circular indentations in the surface of the ball make it ideal for massage. I place the ball on a table, lay my arm on it and press down using my other hand to keep the arm horizontal. Then I roll my arm back and forth over the ball. The pressure changes because of the design, similar to the way the therapist massages the arm applying pressure in different places with his fingers. Standing on the balls in bare feet is like a foot massage. You adjust your weight placement and it moves the pressure points. It's really amazing! They are well worth the money.

I use these for rehab of an irritated muscle in my back. - Good pressure without the abusive hardness of a lacrosse ball. Excellent in a car seat to pressure spots while driving. Texture is good for adjusting pressure and traction to relocate. Good product.

Ces balles se sont dégonflées partiellement au bout de quelques utilisations. Plus de 30 euros quand même, je trouve cela un peu... gonflé.

Han llegado de dos tamaños, una está más hinchada que la otra. Para valer lo que valen y lo que han tardado en llegar no estoy nada contenta

I am a Certified Balanced Body Pilates teacher and bought these for use in my mat classes. Everyone loves them so much that when I plan a class without them they ask to use them. Why do they love these balls? The balls are softer than most massage balls so students have said that they get into tight spots better, they are textures so they stimulate the feet and they help to prevent cramping during class. Some of the exercises that I do provide similar benefits as reformer footwork. If you buy them for your class, ask people to wear Toesox to prevent the spread of fungus etc.

Compré estas pelotas inflables de OPTP Franklin LE9001 Juego de 2 Pelotas de Ejercicio inflables para ejercicios suaves, masaje y movilidad, y me han gustado mucho. Tienen una textura agradable y el nivel de firmeza ayuda bastante para trabajar distintas zonas del cuerpo como espalda, cuello, pies y caderas. Se sienten de buena calidad, resistentes y cómodas de usar. También me gustó que se pueden ajustar un poco según la firmeza deseada. Además, llegaron bien empacadas y en perfectas condiciones. Han sido un complemento muy bueno para relajación muscular y ejercicios de movilidad.

This was recommended by our Pilates teacher for our online sessions, a good bit of kit. I didn’t get the inflater thingy and suspect I won’t need to - our teacher has never had to reinflate these massage balls.
