The Myostorm Meteor Mini ball is our #1 recommended soft tissue recovery aid for those suffering with a plantar fascia, arch, or other soft tissue malady. It is the only recovery ball that provides research backed vibration frequencies with on board heat at the push of a button. Together, these are a potent combination for healing and recovery, shown by studies to reduce soreness 50% within a day with just 30 seconds of use! The Meteor uses the correct heat level and four vibration levels shown by scientific research to be the most effective. The Meteor Mini was developed by researchers, health practitioners, engineers and professional athletes, including Olympic distance runner Jared Ward. The Meteor is designed to facilitate muscular recovery and help reduce chronic pain. Since chronic plantar fasciitis is actually plantar fasciosis—meaning it is degenerative tissue and there is NOT inflammation—heat and vibration are critical and icing alone should be avoided. For these reasons, we feel the Mystorm Meteor mini ball is the best recovery and soft tissue therapy product on the market, and we think every household should own one! It's also super portable and travel friendly, and the mini size works better on feet, leg, and arm muscles than bigger balls do. Dr. Gabe Mirkin, who invented the RICE protocol and originally made icing popular, has been on a crusade to encourage people to stop icing in most situations. Heat and vibration are now recommended in place of ice. The meteor ball is also excellent for reducing post-exercise soreness, with research showing that it can reduce muscle soreness and stiffness by up to 50% with just 30 seconds of treatment. The Myostorm Meteor Mini is also featured at a discount in our Ultimate Foot Relief & Restoration Pack & our Ultimate Plantar Fascia Treatment Package . What Does MyoStorm's Ultra-Soothe Vibration do for your body? Reduce Pain Do you remember the last time you bumped your head? Your first reaction was probably to start rubbing the spot that you bumped. That's because stimulating the mechanoreceptors in your skin helps block pain signals and provides a soothing effect! Vibration therapy (at the right frequencies and amplitudes) can produce the same effect but significantly amplified. This phenomena is called "Gate Control Theory". The vibration from the Meteor is perfectly calibrated to help reduce pain with lasting effects. Blood Flow Pre vs. Post Vibration Increase Blood Flow The specifically calibrated levels of vibration of the Meteor have been shown to promote blood flow. Increasing blood flow not only helps to relax and soothe muscles, but it helps accelerate recovery. When used as a warm up tool prior to physical activity, the Meteor helps improve athletic performance as well as reduce the risk of injury. Reduce Muscle Stiffness In addition to stimulating the nerves in your skin, vibration at the right frequencies can also stimulate your bodies central nervous system. This helps "wake up" your bodies natural healing process, speeding up recovery and relaxing your muscles. This is the same reason that cat purrs and monks saying "oms" is therapeutic... both create vibrations that stimulate our central nervous system! The Meteor has been shown to reduce muscle stiffness by 50% in only 30 seconds of use. The Meteor is the only self-heating massage ball in the WORLD. The Meteor delivers a deeply therapeutic 120F with the touch of a button. Unlike most other heated massage balls that require the use of a microwave, the Meteor's heat can go with you anywhere. In addition to feeling soothing and relaxing, The Meteor's heat accelerates the delivery of healing enzymes and carries away the negative byproducts of recovery in muscles, speeding up your recovery and pain relief. The Meteor is the worlds most effective and versatile tool for rolling out. But what is rolling out and why should you be doing it? Think of rolling out your muscles as a way to get some of the benefits of a deep tissue massage on your own (without the need of a massage therapist). Rolling out has been shown to have many benefits including, reducing muscle tension and increasing range of motion. As a result, rolling out has become a daily recovery routine for millions of people around the world. With it's perfect size and the addition of heat and vibration, the Meteor takes rolling out to a whole new level! No matter what type of pain you are experiencing, the Meteor's got you covered.
