OPTP Franklin Method Textured Ball Set - 2 Inflatable Massage Balls; Textured Ball Set for Self-Massage, Exercise, Muscle Tension and Myofascial Relief

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.

They are a little pricey, but worth it. Amazing for lymphatic drainage/stretching workouts

Along with being great tool for foot massage, they are wonderful for hips, neck, and shoulders. (And I’m sure more.) highly recommend!

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.

I bought these, sort of in a whim, and toted them out to a riding lesson. I never came home with them because my horse trainer kept them to use for herself and other clients too! 😂 They are painful, uncomfortable and can occasionally make you want to cry (all while the horse wonders what the heck it is you're doing up there), but when you take them out ... magic. Whatever they do in loosening up that muscle/fascia/tendons is amazing and always leads to a great ride.

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.

It’s not an exaggeration to say these have been life changing. I’m indebted to my Pilates instructor for recommending these for stretching/massaging and strengthening my feet. I’ve had many issues with my feet over the years, and near daily use (early in the morning) of these for only a few weeks has changed how I move and exercise. They’ve also just increased my awareness of my feet which has been so beneficial. Very grateful.

These balls are great to use on areas of the body that are sore after a workout.
