Epitomie Fitness (Navy Blue) - Muscle Max Massage Ball - Deep Tissue Massager for Trigger Point, Myofascial Release & Self Massage Comes with Travel Bag

I have some really deep knots in my lower back that even muscle relaxers weren’t helping and my hubs has sciatica- I can’t rub deeply enough to help him. When I complained about my back hurting at work my coworker handed me this ball and told me to try it. It’s amazing! It’s very hard- harder and bigger than the tennis balls I’ve used. It’s easier to use when you’re rolling against a wall bc it doesn’t slip. I ordered my own that night. I debated about some cheaper versions and can’t speak to how effective any other brands are, but I’m glad I didn’t. I use it multiple times a day. At 1st I rolled my back against the wall for 15-30 minutes but after 2-3 times the knots were gone. Now I use it for a few minutes anytime my back starts aching (when I first wake up, after sitting at my desk). My hubs uses it against a wall and laying on it. Much cheaper than the PT my doctor recommended (although that’s probably better for getting to the root of the problem), portable, just really effective at pain relief. Works on shoulder and neck knots too!

Really good quality, a great massage ball. Just be aware that this one is rock hard, not soft like some others…

This ball is amazing, I think a lot of people don't know how to use this thing. It's NOT to roll on, you have to SQUASH your muscle knots and trigger points. In that department, it's an excellent companion. I fixed my whole back shoulders, triceps and even my calves with just me, this ball and a wall. It's extremely hard, but that's what you want! Again, you are NOT meant to roll on this thing. You have to press it deep into those trigger points for like 2-3 minutes, and then stretch those muscle once you've tenderized them. 5 stars for me, I massage myself everyday with this thing.

Honestly unreal massage ball! I've bought many massage devices and this one takes the cake!! Very happy with it. Very hard material and the perfect size to hit knots and break up fascia tissue with ease.

Doesn't slip or cave in - the best 'ball' I've tried for self massage against a wall etc. I've not seen something of this quality in store ever! So a great Amazon kind of purchase that will last forever
