Those are great tips. If only people took it seriously instead of as a joke they’d get the results they’re seeking.. these balls have helped me greatly with pain! Total life-saver for fibromyalgia and other conditions I deal with!
I am only able to continue to exercise at some level of intensity by doing all of the exercises Dai showed except the foot one which is now added to the list.
This really works ! I had horrible shoulder and arm pain just a few minutes of using the spike balls on my back and gently gliding them over the area that hutch relaxed me so much and the pain left ! Awesome !
I am four years late to this party and what a great video! Before I go and look at his store, I'll copy the link so I can share it in email. Love that he mentions self-care which is really essential. Nice lightness to this, and he makes it all look very reasonable to do. Wish TH-cam took us to his next video and not somewhere else, but at least I can subscribe.
I've just tried this - Gosh, it feels like I've just been to deep sport massage for ah hour! The best thin is that it is available 24/7 at home and that it's free! :) Thanks for sharing the techniques! I'll wait for more of new ones!
Without knowing been doing this for a couple of months, with tennis balls, I was a little concerned that it'd make the pain worse, so didn't do it too often, now I'll do it everyday, every time I have done it it feels amazing how it releases a lot of pain. BTW, every time you said "ahhh, that's the spot!" I was like, I know what you mean man! For people that suffer with (in my case lower back left leg 24/7 pain) pain, try it out just go slow it takes a little adjustment every time to find the "spot". Best wishes for those who will try, it's not fun to live with pain.
Thanks for that Dai. The foot is the one I have been neglecting and it will now be added given that my sole seems to be one huge trigger point at the moment. I bridge onto my traps these days. I also just discovered sitting on a hard chair or bench with the lacrosse ball on my hamstrings and extending the leg. My hamstrings had been hurting me for a while and not responding to stretching.
lol ive watched a few dif videos on related topics for the last hour maybe and none of them made me feeeel the relief as he did it even though i wasnt rofl. def the one i needed ty
I know what you mean. Sometimes I'm afraid to do these releases because my joints might become a little more loosey-goosey and I don't really want that. So it's really difficult to know what to do. But when I watch these releases I think...ahhh.... that would feel so good...what a conundrum.
Hi There, a little more understanding of anatomy would help you be a more effective guide. The muscle you were working in the butt area was actually your Gluteus Medius. The big ball will not allow you to access Piriformis as it is very deep. You need the lacrosse ball and some time to allow access to this very important structure. It lies in the center of the lateral glutes. If you draw a line from the PSIS to the tailbone then to the greater trochanter back to the Posterior Superior Illiac Spine you will have a triangle. The center of that triangle is where you will find the Piriformis..
I had a trampoline accident over 12 years ago in which I landed on my neck and shoulders,cutting a long story short I was diagnosed with lumbar stenosis in which the last 5 bones in my spine were crushed,is there any chance this system could help in anyway with my lower back ?
I use a tennis ball and a polo ball for my feet. Lately, a bottle of Limonade rolling on the floor. But, think I have to find those coloured balls and start using them for my neck chest , etc. Thanks for the video.
I was sitting here in massive pain desperately searching for relief... oh my goodness the best therapy I got from this video was laughing!! Each time for a few seconds my pain was gone!!! Silly lol
How do you know if you have adhesions? By pain? I have been told have periformis issues and possible psoas spasms on my left. But my right side of back top hip area is sore. Okaynfound sore spots. Can you ever further harm a situation with using a ball? I am assuming it may cause tenderness for awhile? And how many times a day is okay?
I found a heavy duty dog "toy" ball that works perfectly and was only a few bucks! As a bonus, it has multi colored flashing lights to provide some Chromotherapy! ;)
Myofascial release is an alternative medicine therapy claimed to be useful for treating skeletal muscle immobility and pain by relaxing contracted muscles, improving blood and lymphatic circulation and stimulating the stretch reflex in muscles. ❤🌠
Nice balls u have there 😆. What if I stick with my roller and use it on all body parts including chest and back? How much will I miss as opposed to using balls?
'Need' is something that MUST be done. I have 41 years of a quality athletic life and I've never done what this video is talking about. I need oxygen. I need food. I wish people stopped using words like this. It's like the millennial disease with the word 'literally.' I literally don't NEED to do this.
Alejandro Ikr, ... anyway am i the only one that thinks this guy sounds hilarious! It's just like the pycho in happy Gilmore, played by Ben Stiller.Wth the super positive sounding voice.
These fascial releases have changed my life - quick and easy, I combine them with the Mcgill 3 to start my day, everyday!
Good stuff! Ever try the original 12min foundation with Dr eric?
Tip: you can put two tennis balls in a sock to DIY that peanut thingy!
Great tip

What else has helped your fibromyalgia? I just got diagnosed and have no idea where to start to help the pain.
Angel Wings I’ll have to make a video sharing. Been making strides. So grateful for the changes I’m feeling.
Crystal Dawn Please do! There are not enough personal experiences with Fibromyalgia and it's symptoms and possible causes.

Good basic techniques for trigger point pain and great sense of humour!!!

Sounds like you need to work on your sciatic nerve flossing
Love your fun attitude and information! Can’t thank you enough for this helpful info!

Agreed! A little self-love goes a long way for health and longevity. Thanks for sharing.

It is also more effective when you add Diaphragm breathing to it rather then mouth breathing :-)

I have hypermobility (EDS) and I can’t seem to get back to normal. So many things have gone wrong and I have so many healed injuries.

S P I C Y !!! 🤸♀️💪🙏 Thank you, for healthy fascia tips.

You might want to check the links on your webpage. Everytime I clicked on the massage balls, I got the dreaded "page cannot be found "!
Holy cow the pain in the shoulder blades is awful. How do u keep persisting when it really hurts?

Excellent video !!!! Although I had to pause the video at the beginning cuz u was laughing so hard 😘😘😘 LMAO
Nice balls u have there 😆. What if I stick with my roller and use it on all body parts including chest and back? How much will I miss as opposed to using balls?
I think you could be the next spiderman lol
Will this help someone that has been bedbound for 2 years and muscles have become rigid?
Im sure it would help a lot. Any form of massage to the muscle feels good!
Great info!
Where do you buy these balls?
Watched intro and leaving.
Dude, you are funny! Great video!
That intro 😂
"Goooooood.. Heng ooout"
LOL that intro tho hahaha classic
Anyways I like how you talk and explain things what happened to you making videos!?
I can see from the distortion of your foot that your foot is very tense. It would be much better to relax the foot the best you can while working it.
spikey guy!
Great vid man but we're not 3 years old lol
Stfu
he is very cute
I would say "muscle release" instead of fascia, because you seem using pretty much weight.
No, it is exactly miofascial release... That's the official terminology reflecting on what it does. :)
Such a painful pleasure lol in the feet.
Baseball works better.
He works his butt a lot! Man, Id' love to help him out with that! LOL!
Never tell that joke again
This guy is a clown.
Ooowww...funny guy...next video..."get rid of the "from-unda-cheese" from your clothing; looks like a hanging turd. Now...that's funny. Nice video.
