Using this peanut massage ball is a piece of cake. First, find a comfortable place to sit or lie down. Place the ball on the area of your body that needs attention, like your back, shoulders, or legs. Then, slowly roll the ball back and forth, applying gentle pressure. You can also hold the ball in one spot to target a specific tight muscle. As you use it, listen to your body and adjust the pressure as needed. When it comes to maintenance, it's really simple. Since it's water - resistant, you can just wipe it clean with a damp cloth after each use. Keep it in a dry place when not in use. Remember, don't use it on open wounds or inflamed skin. And if you have any health concerns, it's always a good idea to consult your doctor before using the massage ball.
