Review on Vive Massage Ball Set (4 Piece) - Ultimate Foot Pain Hot/Cold Therapy Kit for Plantar Fasciitis, Heel Spur, Sore Muscles - Trigger Point Relief, Full Body Circulation Roller - PT Spike Massager by Anna Reed

Revainrating 5 out of 5

The pain in the arch is gone! The wallet was not damaged!

Excellent kit. The best on Revain. Far superior to any mechanical-electronic kneading, massage and shiatsu device that costs about 25 times as much. Your feet are different and no piece of technology knows all of our feet the same way, but you know and control pressure and position simply by rolling your foot. I didn't think twice about it until I bought this kit on a whim rather than spending over $100 on an electrically powered mechanical massager. tl; dr - Resolved my arch pain very quickly. I recently started playing soccer again. and I had pain in my right foot arch for two weeks. Nothing helped, so I bought this set. I start with a spiked ball, transition to a bumpy ball, transition to a smooth ball, and end with a roller. about 5-10 minutes per step. Repeat 3 times throughout the day. In each phase I try to work out all the "crunches". Then at night I do a warm bath with Epsom salts for 30 minutes, then a cold compress with ice on the underside of the arch for 20 minutes, and then a warm bath for another 30 minutes. Evenly distributed over 3 hours. I did it all day after the game but I knew it was just a bit of tension and nothing serious. I had no heel pain at all and was able to play normally that day; I was just having this aching pain and noticeable swelling in my arches, especially after playing. Either way, this kit is a lifesaver and makes it a lot easier to control where and how you get massaged. In fact, you get better at it and have more control over it the more you do it. Saves money and most importantly completely relieves my bow pain.
