Vulken Vibrating Massage Ball with SphereStrap, Hands-Free Back Massager

The Vulken Acusphere is between the size of a baseball and softball. I find that the size fits perfectly in my hands when I am using it. The charge lasted several hours. I was pleasantly surprised at the vibration strength (for some reason I was expecting it to not be this strong). I found that it worked well at reducing knots in my lower neck/shoulders and dramatically relieved my myofascial pain. The various vibration settings keeps your brain from get used to the same vibration. I think this product is better than my TENS unit because the shape of the ball helps push out knots. I did have intermittent trouble with it turning off on its own when trying to lay on it for back relief. This was easily solved by having my spouse hold it instead. My spouse also uses this on the lower vibration setting to relieve her sciatica. Overall I am happy with this purchase.

This is a great product, it is sturdy and effective. I will use it a great deal! Worth the money!

I bought this as a supplement for the hypersphere by hyoerice. I've used the hypersphere at my girlfriends house, and really enjoyed it not only as a massager, but stability exercise tool as you can hold it and move your arm around to strengthen your shoulder stabilizers. I liked the fact that it could be used for more than just massaging. This, however, cannot. I would say this it's an alternate use for these products so not a huge deal that I can't use it for something else it wasn't intended for, it would just be an added bonus.The Vulken s is about 1/3 the price of the hypersphere and it shows in the build quality. I have 2 main issues with this product, first being that while rolling on it, it gets kind of annoying turning the ball off constantly then having to turn it on then back to the desired setting. Secondly, the plastic around the power button somehow came off in a corner and is now bent up and quite painful to roll over. The thing is so thick I had to use a nail clipper to cut it off.Overall good product, great for the hard to reach spots hahaha

Introduced by my friend and I totally fell in love with it. My old massage ball wasn’t vibrating so I was surprised by how this small vibrating ball worked the first time I used it. The vibration worked very well for me. It has 4 vibration levels and I like to use the highest vibration mode for releasing my hips and medium mode for my upper and lower back. It’s really handy to take anywhere and the size is perfect to treat trigger-points and specific tension areas. It's a great recovery and mobility tool and it’s affordable so overall it’s a great buy. Highly recommend!

I have been dealing with knots in my back for some time and this tool is an excellent solution to work through those knots! There are multiple settings that can provide pain relief or simply massage the muscles. Additionally, I work in a school with children with sensory differences and this could also a useful tool for kids that benefit from vibration as a calming strategy. I have not had it too long yet but it appears very durable and powerful!

It's functional and gets the job done as far as muscle relief, but it's difficult to use. There are some design flaws that need to be addressed. While using, the button keeps getting depressed, so it either turns it off, changes its mode, or the whole ball slides. All which is very annoying and loses the rhythm of the work out. They need to have a hatch, flap or have two halves which one side screws on to the other, so there is no interruption when working out.

This was recommended after my husband had a stroke that affected his entire right side of his body. We use it for therapy on his hand and arm the right side of his face and even on his leg and foot

Edited: it's alive again, so glad because i enjoy this device.Loved this product but after charging it won’t turn on at all. I’ve sent 2 emails to product support with no response.

Highly effective for digging deep into tight shoulder muscles. Takes a charge quickly and holds it well.The first speed it perfect for shoulder pain relief and the rubber coating is of excellent quality, no odour. No regrets about buying it.

Charge 4+hrs before first use as instructed. Vibrations pack a punch, better than I expected. Have used it quite a bit on sore muscles and to loosen up lower back and hips, which has improved movement - so I'm really happy. I have a massage gun which is great - however I have to rely on someone else to reach trigger points properly in my shoulders and back so having this ball and only needing to lean it against a hard surface or the back of a couch has been so much better than the massage gun. No signs of wear and tear - have used it most days/every other day for about a month.

Very disappointed. Vibration speed had gone so low in mode1 after using for a month only. And now after using for 4 months at mode 4 vibration is so low. Started making noise. And stop working after 30 mins only.

The Vulken AcusphereOverview:The acusphere is a unique piece of gym kit. A small rubber-esq ball with bumps. It's travel size and fairly good on battery life. At first it's a little daunting bringing something like this to the gym but once you have a routine and you know what you are doing with it, it is actually quite nice.Pro: Now if you are familiar with foam rollers and excersizing or stretching on one of those. You'll be sort of right at home with the Acusphere. Some excersizes won't apply as the ball is a little too small but the principle is what matters. You find the point you'd like to focus on and you roll. With some creativity or knowhow you can get into some spots a foam roller can't.Top of the neck, latissimus dorsi muscles, trapezius. You can even engage your triceps and biceps very effectively with the Acusphere vs a foam roller.Cons : The entire Acusphere is indeed a sphere but 1/8th of the face is unfortunately plastic and flattened to make way for a button to engage the Acusphere. If you are an on a surphase that is proned to slipping, the Acusphere won't fair too well there. As well as accidentally engaging the button while trying to stretch can occur on muscule groups that contain edge/pointed bones like your triceps or upper back.Conclusion, the Acusphere is unique in deisgn. Very portable and pretty nice to have when you know how to use it. It can be a little strange to be seen at the gym with but once you block that out, it's a really neat kit. It's price point is a little on the high side but I think that is due to how durable it feels. Doesn't feel cheap at all and it's very "weighty"Something for Vulkan to take away : The Acusphere can be larger, I can imagine a medicine ball size Acusphere to be very benificial, similar diameter to a foam roller. Enough curve/arc and height to benefit from.
