I’ve been using tennis balls taped together with medical tape to massage out soft tissue on either side on my spine for nearly 2 decades. I learned the trick from one of my physical therapists after being in a bad car accident. I love that there is now a molded version of taped up tennis balls that applies firmer, more targeted pressure. The tennis balls never offered enough pressure for calves, shins, etc, to become multi-purpose. I LOVE how much access to self-care the double balls and single massage ball give me.
The single massage ball is perfect. It’s way stronger than a tennis ball, not as aggressive as a squash ball, and better at targeting specific spots than the larger yoga massage balls I already had. I greatly appreciate that none of the massage balls give off any odor. The yoga massage balls I already had still reek of rubber and transfer the smell to my workout clothes over a year after buying them.
The Pvolve massage ball set is flawless. I highly recommend them.
