Dr. Cohen's acuballHeatable Self-Massage Therapy Ball for Pain Relief, Improved Mobility & Muscle Recovery – Deep Tissue Trigger Point Ball for Back, Neck, Shoulders & HIPS

I've never heated this roller, but I use it for pressure point release on sore muscles. It's an evil little thing, but it does work. It's not soft, so if you're looking for something which will give when you rest on it, I would get a soft spiky physio ball. But if you're looking for a roller to get into really tight sore muscles, it's worth it. Oh and it withstands the jaws of a springer spaniel too - she got to it before I did.

As soon as I used it on my neck it worked and felt better than anything else I have ever tried before, a must have!

I have used one for 10 years now and five them for gifts. Genius! Hot stone meets deep tissue massage!

Like this even better than the acu ball. This is the only thing that has been able to release my tight,, inbalanced shoulderblade muscles. I lie on it on the floor with my spine in the groove and just let it sink into the tight bits for 3 mins. I use it mainly on my upper back behind my shoulerblades up to my neck. It really helps release tight muscles either side of the spine and those a little further out which I think is why its better than the ball for me, as I already have spikey balls for my glutes. Extremely easy to travel with. Gd for neck if you place acuback on a thin hard book. This is hard, but it does release problem muscles because of that. I wont be heating this up though as to precious to loose, had acuball but it exploded in microwave, my advice is dont heat it, use a wheat bag to warm up muscles before and after instead.

I try to do quite a bit of excercise but can suffer from freqent back and leg pain. I've tried most products out there and have found the Acuball to be the only one so far that provides real relief from pain. It took a bit of getting used to but I now seem to have better freedom of movement and quicker recovery. £31 very well spent!

This is an amazing product.I have been using an Acuball every day for about a year and swear by it.As a Personal Trainer it maintains my flexibility and is a tremendous boost to my performance.I have now bought Acuballs to use with my clients as an integral part of their warm up sessions - they love it too!

ok

This ball is amazing. It's hard as a rock and takes some practice and getting used to, but it relieves my deep muscular pain every time. I am a qualified masseuse and I highly recommend this ball.
