Setup, Workout Tips, and Care & Safety Guide
INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE
Please read before setting up or using your Hot/Cold Massage Therapy balls.
BODY THERAPY
For tension release and muscular massage in the back, shoulders and glutes, place
the smooth Therapy Ball on a non-skid surface such as a carpet or fitness mat and roll
underneath the affected area. For the upper back and shoulders, you may also roll the
Therapy Ball between the wall and the affected area.
FOOT THERAPY
For treatment of Plantar Fasciitis (PF) and other foot ailments, place the textured ball on a
non-skid surface such as a carpet or fitness mat and roll back and forth underneath the
foot, paying careful attention to the most painful areas. Recommended treatment time is
4–6 minutes, but may vary according to your pain level. PF patients may benefit most from
morning therapy.
COOLING THERAPY
Place Hot & Cold Therapy Balls in the freezer for 4-6 hours to freeze gel; product will stay
cold 15-20 minutes. Refreeze as necessary. Cooling therapy is most helpful for cases in
which mild to moderate inflammation is present.
HEAT THERAPY
Place Hot & Cold Therapy Balls in 120-degree (very hot) tap water for 7-10 minutes; test before applying to skin.
Therapy Balls stay heated approximately 10 minutes. Reheat as necessary.
DO NOT USE OTHER HEATING IMPLEMENTS—conventional or microwave ovens or stove tops, for
example—as overheating may cause burning injuries or damage the Hot & Cold Therapy Balls. We do not
recommend placing the Hot & Cold Therapy Balls in boiling water, as this will damage the seals on the
product and/or cause burns.
CAUTION: Use only as directed. Consult with your doctor or physical therapist before beginning any self-treatment program. Suitable for
ages 13 and over. Keep out of reach of younger children. Do not use if you have diabetes, or if you have open sores, cracked or blistered
skin in the treatment area. If symptoms worsen, decrease pressure; if adverse symptoms persist, discontinue use and contact your doctor.
