Review: Best Product Ever! - Oh, my gosh, this thing is AMAZING! It doesn't look like much, honestly. It's a small, dark green, rubber ball that fits in the palm of your hand. (Slightly bigger than a golf ball, but much smaller than a tennis ball.) It's covered in flat rubber "nubs," so it looks a bit odd, like some kind of weird, alien fruit. But don't let its appearance throw you off. This bumpy ball will save your feet from misery! It resembles a dryer ball in many ways, but it's not the same at all. It's softer, more rubbery, and the nubs are flat-topped and short, so they won't hurt your feet. How to use it: Drop the ball on the floor, then (gently) step on it with a bare foot. (Or you can wear socks, if you're modest.) Move your foot, rolling the ball around. Up and down, back and forth, in circles---whatever feels good! It's like getting a foot massage---only better, because you control exactly where you're being rubbed, and you control how hard or light the pressure is. If you have balance issues, sit down before using it. Or lean against something, so you don't fall. Note that your feet may be extra sensitive at first, like how you jump when someone first starts rubbing your feet, especially if they're extra sore. Go gently until your nerves adjust, and then you can press as hard as you like. I haven't tried massaging my back with this ball, although it should work for that, too. For a back massage, my suggestion would be to put two of these inside a very thin sock. (If the sock is thick, you'll lose the benefit of the little nubs.) Knot the end of the sock, then lean against a wall, with the sock resting against the part of your back that needs massaging. Bend your knees and move up and down, rolling it against your back. Press harder if you need more pressure. A physical therapist taught me to do this using two tennis balls inside a sock! It works great for accupressure, as well as reaching muscle spasms or pinched nerves in your back. I'd imagine this product would be even better than tennis balls, since it's smaller and has the rubber nubs. Even if you only use it for your feet, it's a bargain at any price. I can't imagine how I survived without it all my life! Five stars and highly recommended for anyone who does a lot of walking, or who stands all day. Bring one along on your next trip to a theme park, or use it after a long day of shopping! Your feet will thank you.
Review: This ball may actually be magic - I'm not sure what kind of magic this ball is made of, but it exceeded mine and my husband's expectations. My husband works on his feet, sometimes 12-14 hour days. His feet always hurt, and he said sometimes it feels like plantar fasciitis. He was using our daughters wooden tomato (play food for her kitchen) for his foot, and I was pretty unhappy about it. We have a foam roller, which has been one of our best purchases (seriously, for back, hip, legs, whatever...they're amazing!) so I was hoping desertcart would have something similar for feet. I found this little ball and saw all of the amazing reviews. I read through, and honestly, I was skeptical. I didn't see how this could help, but I figured it was cheap ($5-6 at time of ordering) so why not give it a try. My husband used it the second it got here. He said only 5 minutes made a huge difference. He loves it! He also has hand pain (he's had surgery on one for guyon canal release and carpal tunnel and is awaiting the same surgery on the other) and this helps relieve it. I suffer from hand pain as well, arthritis of the thumb joint and what sometimes feels like carpal tunnel pain. This little ball does wonders for relieving my pain as well. It doesn't last long term, but it's a welcome instant pain reducer. I also have muscle pain in my shoulder blade areas and in my lower back. Since my husband has hand pain, he's not able to rub my back often. With this, he can use it to rub my back, and it massages his hand at the same time. Two birds, one stone! I've used this ball on my hips, outer thighs, calves, shoulders...basically anywhere you can think of. We're going to get at least one more, probably 2. Such a great value for the money.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: This looks like a dryer ball to me, what makes using this better than using one of my dryer balls?**
A: I've been using a dryer ball for this purpose. It's not super sturdy, but it holds up to the pressure I put on it (I only weigh 100 lbs though). I'm thinking about ordering a legit massage ball because they're usually made of a dense, firm rubber that won't collapse like the plastic dryer balls feel like they'll eventually do, and they're a little smaller so would be perfect to keep one in my purse for work or travel.

**Q: How do you clean it? Can I put it in the dish washer or with y clothing in the washer?**
A: You can probably just put it in a bowl with some soapy water to clean it.

**Q: Is this washable?**
A: No

**Q: what is the diamiter**
A: This is slightly larger than a golf ball - probably about 2- 2.5 inches
