The Acuball Mini & Your Posture

I purchased an Acuball Mini last summer when I started to feel some discomfort in my heel. I still don't know what the issue was, but I know it was one of two things: Early signs of Plantar Fasciitis or Soft Tissue Damage.

Though I don't know what the issue was, I do know that the Acuball Mini allowed me to provide myself with therapy as I sat at my desk at work. It allowed me to continue training at 60km+ per week and race twice a month.  I love this darn thing!

Since then, I routinely use it a few times a week to massage my feet, but when I'm not rolling out my soles I've got the ball wedged between my back and my desk chair to help with my posture. But you may be wondering why pay such attention to your posture?  Here are a few reasons:

  1. Optimal organ and muscle function for maximum energy, endurance, and vigor.
  2. Optimal biomechanics for the best possible muscle performance.
  3. Greater concentration and mental ability (as a result of this reduced pain and fatigue).
  4. Fewer upper and lower back problems.
  5. A flatter and stronger stomach--in fact, without proper posture you can never achieve the flattest stomach and smallest waist possible.
  6. A more respect-producing, confident, competent, vigorous, youthful appearance.
 And I've found that I am less fatigued at the end of the day, that my neck and shoulders aren't as tight and I can concentrate more clearly if I engage in proper posture while working away at my computer desk. If you spend countless hours at a desk and suffer from stressed neck and shoulder muscles, I recommend the Acuball Mini for your posture. You'll be amazed how nearly all forms of pain can be sourced back to bad posture...so why not forgo the costly physio you'll need in the future and purchase a $20 massage ball instead?
