7. Initial use

• Remove the packaging.
• Check the device and batteries for damage.
• Open the massage ball by twisting in opposite directions with your hands.
• Place the batteries in the battery compartment properly.
• Put the two halves of the ball back together and twist them again until the two halves click into place. The two imprinted arrows on the ball are now at the same level again.

29

8. Usage

The massage should feel pleasant and relaxing at all times. If the massage is painful or uncomfortable, stop the massage or change your position or the contact pressure.

• You can switch on the device by pressing the On/Off button once. The massage ball starts to vibrate at the strongest intensity level.
• If you press the On/Off button again, the ball starts to vibrate at the weaker of the two intensity levels. Select one of the two intensity levels depending on your personal preferences.

Note

• We recommend treating each area (lower body, mid-body and upper body) three times a week for 15 minutes each time. When carrying out a session, we recommend training all three areas. However, you may also choose to focus on one of the above areas. Carry out treatment consciously and slowly.

Examples of use:

Calf
Sit on the floor and place one leg on the massage ball so that it is positioned on the bottom half of the calf. Support yourself with your hands while leaning back and lift your hips. Tense your stomach and bottom muscles and shift your lower body forwards and backwards. The calf muscles are stimulated.

Thigh/bottom
Lie on your side on the floor and stretch both legs straight out. Bend one arm and support yourself on the floor with your elbow while keeping your other arm relaxed by your side. Place the massage ball under your hips. Now roll over the ball with slow movements. Vary the exercise by supporting yourself with both arms while leaning back; then roll your bottom over the ball with gentle pressing movements.

Chest
Sit upright on the floor or on a chair and hold the ball in one hand. Now roll it over your chest in circular movements. In order to increase the pressure, you can also lean against a wall while standing up, with your front facing the wall.

31

Arm/shoulder
Lean against a wall while standing up, with your side facing the wall. Place the ball between your upper arm and the wall. Now apply gentle pressure on the ball and move up and down with your legs so that the ball rolls slowly along your arm. Increase the distance between your legs and the wall in order to increase the pressure on the ball.
Now slowly turn your back to the wall so that the ball moves along your shoulder area and the muscles in your shoulders are stimulated.

Back
Turn your back to the wall and place the ball on the right or left next to the spine between your back and the wall. Now move slowly up and down and roll the ball over your back.
