Hip Hip Hooray
I have a hip problem. This is the best for working trigger points in the piriformis, (pocket area), and the front of hip and thigh where I can get the TFL, and deep into the crease of the hip and work the trigger points and tender tissues there. Better than any of the things I have like field hockey and tennis balls or foam rollers. Because of it’s size it will be good for working the front of the shoulder which is hard to get with a small ball. A tennis ball in a sock, slung over the shoulder, back against a wall is a good way to work the back of the shoulder.

Love it!
Chronic thoracic back pain. This has reduced the amount of meds I’ve been taking daily a great deal. Good quality material-construction. Size is a little larger than a softball, and lightweight. Easy to take with you on the go or to work.

Does a body good.
Didn’t know how much I needed this size foam ball. Surface area, shape and size allow me to treat hard to reach places or that are too intense with a foam roller. Price is only reason for 4 stars.

I would buy this again
After purchasing and loving this ball I briefly misplaced it and realized how much it had been helping me only after losing it. Ididnât immediately reorder it because I was sure it would resurface. During my wait I succumbed to temptation and bought an orange foam knobby ball from Target. It was less expensive and there was no wait time- I went home and after trying it realized how much better the original tiger tail ball is. I love it. It hits all my points from my fibromyalgia especially my butt, I press against the ball while standing against the wall in the hall! Picture a bear scratching it itchy back on a tree . If I lose it I would not hesitate to get another one. It also gets the area by my nape my upper shoulders,my hips is another favorite target area to use this ball on. Totally recommend.

BEST Therapy/Foam ball out there
If I had to choose between a foam roller or a ball, THIS Tiger Tail Tiger Ball would be my choice. The quality this is made out of is very very good. I have knots and this makes everything better. I use it majorly on my upper to mid back and lats. Although I sometimes bring it to my hips and glutes to push out the knots. The feeling of hurt but good at the same time brings me to no words in a good way. It’s a matter of trying it out yourself. I never though a ball like this would work. I tried a tennis ball, and the pressure I prefer ended up making me squish the tennis ball into the wall. This Tiger Ball withstands the strong pressure I like and then some. The one other thing I love about this is that I get to take this with me everywhere. I brought it to work and had a few of my coworkers get their own after having tried mine. It’s like taking a massage therapist with you everywhere you go and having a strict hard pressure massage anytime of the day.

Perfect size foam ball
I go to a roller massage class and we use this ball regularly. It works really well for rolling out your neck.

Wonderful compliment to foam rollers
I love this thing! It works great on hip flexors – a lacrosse ball is too small and a softball isn’t quite large or round enough. This has just a tiny bit of give to it, too, so that it doesn’t feel like you’re laying on a rock. It’s also great for glutes, hamstrings and lower back. It’s also a bit more user friendly than a foam roller. I don’t think it can completely replace a foam roller, but it is definitely a great addition to your myofascial release arsenal.

This is excellent for trigger points that are hard to reach like upper back. It has a rope that goes through the middle so you can control where it goes. I take it travelling for plane and hotel. I have 2 and a mini. Very hard rubber ball size of tennis ball. Nothing better than. Excellent for rehab post shoulder surgery.

Why did the tiger foam roller become a comedian?Because it knew how to roll with the punches and stretch the truth!The Tiger Ball Foam Roller Ball stands out not only for its effectiveness but also for its perfect size compared to smaller roller balls. Its larger size allows for better leverage and coverage, ensuring a more thorough massage experience. Additionally, its firmness is just right, providing the ideal balance between relieving tension and promoting relaxation without being too harsh. Whether you’re targeting specific trigger points or simply seeking overall muscle relief, this foam roller ball delivers exceptional results every time.

Far better for relaxing trigger points in the leg than a foam roller or lacrosse ball; the foam roller is too non-specific, the lacross ball too small – this one is just right. I can pinpoint a tight spot and hold until it relaxes. I’ve found this ball to be particularly suited for hitting groin muscles – wow – I didn’t realize how knotted up I was down there. Excellent purchase, probably my most used self-massage tool.
