The Miracle Ball Method: Relieve Your Pain, Reshape Your Body, Reduce Your Stress [2 Miracle Balls Included]

I have lower back pain from being a stomach-sleeper all my life. These little balls really have helped with the pain. And I like using them on other parts of my body just because it feels so good (they really help elicit the relaxation response). My only complaint is that I wish there was a DVD that came with them instead of a tedious little book. It can be hard to hold the book in one hand and read the instructions while trying to position the ball under you with the other.

I am disappointed with this product. Most of the exercises are basic stretches, which do not require the balls. The balls do feel good while using them, but do not provide relief beyond that. In fact, I'm not so sure that they don't make painful areas worse. The smell of the balls is horrendous. I have no idea why everyone has written so many good reviews. I've had several of my friends try them out also and they think that they're just a waste of time. I would certainly not purchase again.

I'm a massage therapist and this product helped me to take care of my patients (most of them have been through a car accident), with excellent results, when it is too painful to receive deep tissue massage. It has the advantage of targeting muscles and fascia (connective tissue) deep into the hips and thorax, so it helps me to give a very complete treatment. Just a note, I ordered some of the used method, to have one set at every office I worked at, and the books came without the miracle balls.

I broke my left shoulder and had to go to physical therapy. My therapist would do trigger release to loosen up the tight muscles. Additionally, she gave me some stretches and exercises to help rehab the muscles. Although I am not 100% range of motion, she was impressed how close I am to being 100% in about 90 days. I told her about the miracles balls and it made sense to her. I was able to mimic the trigger releases, and the therapist even recommended lying on my side and placing the ball under my armpit to loosen the rotator cuff. I do 4-5 miracle ball stretches every morning before I do the stretches and exerices from the therapist.

Excellent packaging as well book and exercise balls.
The small size book allows me to put it into my pocket and read it at anyplace (airplane, bus, park, etc). Miracle small balls are excellent for my daily practice and can carry them in my briefcase.
So far all my exercises have been very productive since book lessons are clear, succint and motivating. Key results of the exercises: Great reduction on stress, overall body stiffness and lower backpain.
Thank you Elaine.
