I'm a chair massage therapist, and this technique does work. But, in my honest opinion, therapeutic [more specified, i.e. traps, occipital muscles and QTs {low back}] chair massage is also an affordable alternative, usually running a dollar a minute. Good work on the video though.
Yes, I agree that it is good, and honorable, and spiritual work that you do, giving of yourself to help decrease others discomfort. I know that it is also hard work. Unfortunately, there is a very large group of people that cannot afford a dollar a minute, which is what this technique using a ball addresses. But, for people who can afford a professional massage, of course, I agree that it can be a major help for the health of the body and for relaxation.
Hopefully, every moment of life can be a moment of ecstasy. Sometimes all it takes is for the sun to hit a fall leaf at just the right angle. I would say that the source of all true ecstasy is within you. So yes this was a very happy moment, making this video, being myself, and getting the knots out of my neck. Hope it helps you too. Thanks for the comment.
Another tip that I figured out : To help get the ball in the right place (I use a tennis ball), I put in in an old knee sock. Then I can use the sock to locate the ball.
It is a good idea, but consider this an outsider video, like outsider art. If you want to do a better produced version, and post it as a response, I will be glad to put it up in response video section. Thanks
@MYnameisomfgrawrbla ------LOL!!!!! That was hysterical...you made my day when you asked "do all new tennis balls smell like bacon bits!?" I so agree with you!
I did not ask the tennis ball smelling like bacon bits question, but I agree with you about it being funny. "MYnameisomfgrawrbla," made the comment. Thanks for the support.
hey i've been looking for something like this,since i'm not in physio anymore & no longer get"free massages" lol i'm 4 years post op from my back operation & it works ok for me
when you're tense it makes it harder to go away,believe it will go away,relax & along with the ball is the trick
how long on average would you say it takes to actually get rid of the knots though, cause i'm using a tenis ball...and while i feel really fantastics having massaged my neck against the wall...but the knots are still there...how long will it take before they go away? (and don't worry, i know you're not a doctor or a medical professional and i take your advice at my own risk...thought it's phenomenal advice :) !!!)
In my own experience, over a few days, doing the massage for about 10 minutes twice in the day, once in the morning, and once in the evening. Of course that is in a case study of one, being myself. Thanks for the comments!
