## Description

desertcart.com: OPTP Super Pinky Ball – Moderately Firm Density Deep Tissue Massage Ball for Back Pain, Shoulder Tension Relief, Sore Muscles, Plantar Fasciitis and More : Everything Else

Review: I lose patience when I read ignorant reviews. - Some of the negative reviews do not seem fair. I use the The MELT Method, and The Miracle Ball Method, and find they are both effective for pain. I alternate these, along with several other products, to help control my Fibromyalgia. It takes a variety, as the pain is different from day to day, and what works one day, might not the next. The firmness of a product, depends on what part of the body I am working on. I love desertcart Reviews. It has helped me so much in making wise purchases. I bought this, along with the products mentioned. I was fully aware it was not part of either product, it just offered a savings to buy together. I was also aware that it was Firm Density. It clearly states this, along with the size, and a description of its use. I try to respect other opinions, but it is difficult when someone leaves a bad review, complaining about a product that is exactly as described! I always appreciate someone mentioning a place to buy something for less money, but the price should not change the rating. We all know what price we are agreeing to pay. I lose patience when I read ignorant reviews! I find it works well for massaging my feet. It may not work for everyone, and I respect those reviews, and have empathy for anyone dealing with pain. Best Wishes!
Review: Yes, it is firm. Read the description. As a fitness instructor, I recommend it. - For those complaining that the ball is too hard for the MELT method, all I can say is this: The seller did not list it as such, desertcart did. Nowhere in the actual item description does it say it is associated with the MELT method. And those who complained it was very firm? The seller says in the description that it is firm, and in the picture you can see it doesn't squish under the foot. If the description says firm, then maybe you should expect a firm ball! It isn't rocket science. I have used this type of ball at every studio I have ever taught at as a fitness instructor. My clients and I find it very useful to roll out and release muscles throughout the whole body, either using the floor or the wall as a surface. It isn't as hard as a baseball, but it is slightly harder than a tennis ball. This brand holds up very well with commercial use.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Does this pinky ball help plantar fasciatis?**
A: Yes, the Super Pinky Ball is designed to help with the prevention or relief of plantar fasciitis by stretching the plantar fascia.

**Q: are these the balls used in Sue Heitzmann exercises**
A: No.  These balls are too hard for the Melt Method.  Ditto for the standard rollers.  The ones for that are used in the Melt Method are MUCH softer.  I contacted Ms Heitzmann through her website and she directed me to someone who was conducting classes locally.  I was able to purchase my roller and balls directly from her.

**Q: is this solid rubber ball? cause i need to drill a hole through and through . and what's the diameter of this ball?**
A: Yes, it's solid, and I measure it at about 2.25 inches in diameter

**Q: How many balls are in the pack?**
A: There was only one.  It is kind of a hard ball.  I was hoping it would be hard, but eventually soften up, as I was using it to roll on the bottom of my feet in the arch, but it still works ok.
