The TP Massage FootBaller's dense materials mirror the feeling imparted by an actual thumb and change shape after five to seven seconds of pressure. Many use devices filled with air like a tennis ball, which will collapse and thus fail to penetrate the nucleus of the muscle; or using a device made of a hard material such as plastic or wood, which will be traumatic to the muscle and cause more damage. Trigger Point's therapy tools, the TP Massage Ball™, Footballer™, and Quadballer are able to penetrate the belly of the muscle safely and effectively. Once the pressure is applied and the user takes a deep breath, the trigger point of the targeted muscle is forced to relax, and the spasm is relieved. When Trigger point's therapy tools, three to five minutes of pressure within each muscle group os al that is needed. This treatment is recommended before and after workouts and races and prior to stretching. Athletes tend to overdo things. That's what gets them into the painful situation in the first place. Moderation is the key.

These products are not just for athletes; Trigger Point recommends using the TP Massage Ball™, Footballer™, Quadballer for anyone who wishes to relieve or prevent pain. This includes all active bodies and even office workers. Muscles become fatigued when sitting in front of a computer or working around the house.
