Exercise Balls Exercise Balls


The Exercise Ball is a conservative treatment option for back pain sufferers and is designed to help prevent further episodes of back pain as part of a rehabilitation program.

With the Exercise Ball, an element of instability is introduced to the exercise that one would not normally get in a floor exercise. The body responds naturally and automatically to this instability to keep balanced on the Exercise Ball. Over time, the muscles used to keep in balance on the Exercise Ball become stronger. In essence, you build strength in important back muscles and abdominal muscles without knowing it.

In addition, it is theorized that the type of movement induced by using the Exercise Ball(small range, adjustment of balance) by the spine may help reduce pain by stimulating natural pain inhibitors.

The benefits of Exercise Ball exercise for people with back pain include:

  • Simple way to start moving again after back pain episode
  • Improved muscle strength
  • Greater flexibility and range of motion of the spine
  • Enhanced balance and coordination of muscles used to stabilize the spine and control proper posture while using the Exercise Ball
  • Increased tendency to maintain a neutral spine position during exercise

    The Exercise Ball has additional applications in areas such as general fitness, strength or weight training, and exercise for pregnant women.

    The Exercise Ball Size
    The size of the Exercise Balls varies. Physical therapists and exercise trainers suggest using an Exercise Ball that fits each person’s height and leg length, where the hips and knees are at or slightly greater than a 90 degree angle (thighs parallel to ground or point down slightly) with feet flat on the floor. It is best to work with a physical therapist, exercise physiologist or other spine specialist for a proper fit before using or purchasing an Exercise Ball.

    The Exercise Ball may be inflatable, made out of vinyl or plastic, or solid foam rubber. Inflatable Exercise Balls can be punctured, so it is important to avoid wearing anything sharp (jewelry, belt buckle) when using the ball. Certain manufacturers tout designs that stop the Exercise Ball from exploding if a puncture occurs, allowing the air to leak out slowly instead.

    Inflatable Exercise Balls may come deflated and you will need to use an air pump to fill them. Frequently a pump can be purchased with the Exercise Ball. Instructions about air pressure and fill levels should be followed. Exercise Balls made of plastic can be harmed by heat and excess sunlight.

    One factor in choosing an Exercise Ball is its durability and ability to maintain its shape under pressure.
