Trigger Ball is a simple, portable and accessible device designed to relieve pain and reduce muscle tension caused either by trigger points or by muscle contractions, poor posture, lack of movement or other injuries. Direct pressure on a trigger point, although uncomfortable and sometimes painful, ultimately relieves pain and reduces muscle tension.
Self-massage with the trigger ball acts similarly to a deep massage on the myofascial system, reducing muscle tension and improving blood flow.
The myofascial system refers both to the muscle itself and to its fascia - the thin shell that wraps and connects the muscles, bones, nerves and blood vessels.
Due to its small shape and size, the trigger ball is perfect for trigger points and narrow muscle areas.
Known more frequently using the English term (trigger points), these are hyperirritable places or palpable nodule in the bands of the skeletal muscle fascia.
We all have trigger points in the body but their presence does not always lead to the appearance of pain, but only when joint problems, poor posture, contracture or muscle overstrain occur.
By pressing the trigger points with the help of the ball, the level of pain and muscle tension is reduced, which leads to the improvement of the range of movement at the level of the muscles on which it was acted and implicitly the improvement of the movement of the joints.
The release (relaxation) of the triggering point by the direct pressure exerted by a trigger ball, lasts between 30 and 120 seconds. Once released, the muscle tissue must be moved along it (basically some complete movements will be made, movements that involve the area on which the pressure was exerted with the help of the ball).
We can sit or lie on the ball and using the weight of the body apply a pressure on the tense muscle or directly on the trigger points.
Sustained pressure on a trigger point or on tense muscles can increase blood flow to the muscles and connective tissue. An increase in blood circulation means that the muscles are able to receive the maximum amount of nutrients allowing an optimal recovery.
The direct pressure exerted by using a trigger ball can complement a program of mobility and strength exercises, thus improving the range of movement.
The use of the ball can be especially useful after an intense workout or after prolonged deficient postures throughout the day, stressing the affected muscles.
The use of the ball is not indicated in case of an injury or a recent trauma in which the skin was affected, in case of inflammation or in case of a swelling (bruise).
