How To Use Tiger Tail Massage Ball 5.0?

1. Lie on top of user Tiger Ball 5.0 or lean onto it against a wall, and apply pressure on user muscles.
2. Relaxing user muscles during this process will help use massage the “belly” of the muscle.
3. Use are the judge of how much pressure to apply. Strive for a “good hurt”- from 5-7 on a scale of 1-10. If rolling on the floor is too painful for use, try rolling on a wall or on a bed. “Grimacing” with pressure can be described as that “hurts so good” feeling. It’s not unusual for people to laugh and or get really serious when applying this type of pressure on a muscle knot. This is usually where we see the best success.
4. Always follow muscle paths. Massage each muscle group 10-20 seconds. With each pass, gently press deeper into the muscle. Avoid massaging directly over bones.
5. Tender muscle knots can reduce range of motion while causing minor aches, discomfort and muscle fatigue. Knots come in various sizes, like a pin head, pea, noodle or small pickle.
6. Minor discomfort or tenderness may be experienced when passing over muscle knots. To minimize knots, apply 10 seconds of firm, constant, focused strokes, for three sets.
7. Recurring or stubborn muscle knots often need additional attention. Using Tiger Tail products 2-3 times a day may help speed healing. Over the course of time, muscle knots should get smaller or disappear. 

• Who Can Benefit
  - Someone who carry stress and tension in the back, shoulders, hips, glutes or other hard to reach big muscle groups. This tool is perfect for massaging yourself without a buddy. The ball shape adds greater pressure to the muscles and allows rolling on the surrounding muscle knots. Use it against a wall and add pressure, or use it by laying down on a surface and let gravity do its work.



• Where Does It Work Best
  - Works best for back, glutes, and quads. The tool allows use to roll away on the targeted muscle group. Best usage: lean on a wall, sit on a chair, or lay down on a mattress or other hard surface.
