The Original Stick Grippy Massage Ball is available in 3-inch (8 cm) and 5-inch (12 cm) versions. Firm rubber with textured surface for traction. Sold individually or as a set.
• Sizes: 3 inch (8 cm) or 5 inch (12 cm)
• Material: firm rubber
• Surface: textured for grip against skin, floor, and wall
• 3-inch best for: plantar fascia, shoulder rotator cuff, forearms, hands
• 5-inch best for: glutes, hip flexors, upper back, IT band area
• Use: self-myofascial release and trigger point therapy
Which size should I get — the 3-inch or 5-inch?
The 3" is for precise, targeted work on the plantar fascia, shoulder rotator cuff, and forearms. The 5" is better for larger muscle groups like the glutes, hip flexors, and upper back where you want broader coverage. Many users find both sizes together cover all recovery needs.
How long should I spend on one trigger point?
60–90 seconds of sustained pressure on a sore spot — hold rather than roll constantly. When you feel tension reduce, move to the next area.
Can I use the 5-inch ball on my back?
Yes — place it between your upper back and a wall or floor and use your body for pressure on the rhomboids and upper traps. Work the muscles to either side of the spine, not directly on the vertebrae.
How firm are these compared to a standard lacrosse ball?
Firm enough for sustained pressure on knots with slightly more give than a pure rubber lacrosse ball. The textured surface creates more friction against skin and floor surfaces, keeping the ball from sliding during use.
