How to use your spiky ball
You can simply sit or lay on your Spiky Massage Ball and you use your body weight to apply pressure to a tight muscle.
By using pressure and specific movements you can encourage the Spiky Ball to really target those deep trouble-spots and also encourage your muscles to relax.
DO NOT USE your Spiky Ball if you have a recent injury or trauma which has broken the skin, caused inflammation of a joint, or if you are badly bruised – if in doubt ask your practitioner.
