Our Buyer’s Guide will help you to choose the best massage products to prevent and treat your back pain.
Massage balls are soft, spiky balls that can be used by a massage therapist or by you, at home, during self-treatment. The use of massage balls encourages the back muscles to relax and can help the treatment of sports injuries and back pain. The therapeutic touch of massage balls against the skin and underlying soft tissues induces a relaxation of back muscle tension and back stiffness. This relaxation on its own can provide back pain relief, or it can allow the physiotherapist to carry out further treatment such as mobilisation and manipulation in order to clear up the underlying cause of back pain.

Therapeutic massage is an integral part of the treatment of back injuries, back pain and back muscle strains. Using massage oils and rubs reduces skin friction and possible discomfort of the massage, while enhancing the effect of the back massage. The special ingredients of the massage creams and rubs increase local blood flow, which promotes healing and repair of the back muscles, relieves back pain and reduces back stiffness. Back massage is particularly effective in the prevention and treatment of the symptoms of lumbago, sciatica and rheumatic pain.
