Know someone whose carpal tunnel got better with P.B?

[Lorica]

I want to try it, but am concerned that it won't really be effective, and/or will cause some other kind of RSI. Thanks for any input.

Hello Lorica, and Welcome to the forum.
about the carpal tunnel thing, am sure it will get better using powerball from5-10 minutes every day.
But please wait for an Administrator to confirm this.
By the way, you can have a look at the " Testimonial" section
here ---> http://www.powerballs.com/powerball_testimonials.php
Kind Regards!

As much as I can say Lorica is that the Powerball is guaranteed to rehabilitate RSI, Carpal Tunnel, Tendonitis or Tennis Elbow. Indeed any similar conditions will be improved by using Powerball.

Our recommendation is that you use the Powerball for 5-10 minutes once or twice a day initially for the first month after which you will see guaranteed results.

You may be interested in this page which will expalin in more detail.

I'll also post separately an email which we received from a satisfied customer in the last few days.

All I can suggest to you Lorica is that you give it a try. I am confident that you will be 100% satisfied with your Powerball and the results you see from its use. Bear in mind that if at any stage you are not satisfied, you may return your Powerball for a full refund.

Regards

Here is an email we received from a satisfied customer whobegan using a Powerball to help combat RSI symptoms from which she was suffering.

Dear Sir/Madam,

I thought I would just email you to thank you and the RPM Sports team
for producing the Powerball. When I first got RSI, nearly a year ago,
I didn't know if I'd ever be able to type or do many everyday
activities again without the pain I was suffering.

I went to my doctor, but she was not useful and did not suggest
anything I could do, except wear splints on my wrists. I found these
constrictive and rather hot to wear. I also bought an ergonomic
keyboard and made sure I sat correctly when typing. I still do this
today, but nothing relieves my pain like the Powerball does.

I'd seen some of my friends with Powerball's, but they were using them
for just playing or competing purposes. It wasn't until a while later
that I realised the Powerball can also be used to help relieve the
pain of RSI and CTS. I hence bought one, and have never looked back.
Just a few minutes every day, or when it starts hurting, is enough to
make sure I can do everyday activities without the pain.

So thank you! You have relieved me of the worry that I won't be able
to do my work; especially at this crucial time - I have just completed
my A-levels and am about to start University at the end of this month.
It has also allowed me to continue many other activities, such as
playing badminton, playing guitar, playing computer games and
painting.

My only hope is that more people can benefit from the Powerball.

Thanks again,

Maria <surname withheld>

I never got bad RSI, but I did used to suffer a bit, partly from typing on a computer all day, partly from playing a lot of badminton. Although I don't play badminton anymore I still spend 6 or 7 hours a day at the keyboard, and I never have any RSI or wrist problems, thanks to the Powerball.

As with any exercise device, overdoing it can cause problems. I've hurt my muscles, my wrists, my fingers, my elbow AND my shoulder by overdoing it with the Powerball, but bizarrely, using it gently has resolved all those problems in double-quick time. (And at 35 I know that injuries take longer to heal these days, but Powerball seems to speed up that process.)

I'd also like to point you to this thread on the forums, posted by BasketCase.

His son had a serious wrist-break performing gymnastics, and was told by doctors that he would never get back a lot of the movement in his wrist, but thanks to a Powerball he's made a startling recovery.

Seriously, £15 to £20 on a Powerball is definitely money well spent.

[Lorica]

Thanks everyone above, very much. Okey dokey. I will buy one and report back after I see the results, whatever they may be. I appreciate the input on not overdoing it, going gently. I am even older than 30-something.

[skylerwd6]

Yes it's good to go gentle then to start off fast my mom i getting better after getting carpal tunnel and having surgery on it over a year ago it has helped her wrists a bit which is nice to know well i'll catch you later

I hurt my elbow lifting weights years ago, I lost all of my strength in my left hand because of it. I bought a Neon Blue Pro and couldn't get over 5000 with my left hand because of the pain in my elbow. Now I can hit over 10,000 with my left hand WITHOUT ANY PAIN. Whats weird is if I stop powerballing for a week or so, I can start to feel the pain a little, but not nearly as bad as it used to be. Just 1 or 2 short sessions relieves the pain and I am back on track. I highly recommend one and as Enda said it has a money back guarantee, you can't go wrong. As long as you don't over do it you should "feel" the results. And believe me people tend to over do it when they first get it, don't over do it.

[W. Irving]

It does work! I work with a computer (far too much) 10 hours / day. Since getting my Neon I haven't had much problem (in fact, the only time the pain returns is when I haven't PB'ed for a few days). A typical session starts with a few minutes at 5000-7000 RPM, and ten minutes later, when I'm warm enough, I go for the record.
I also suffer(ed) from an unrelated neural injury to my right hand which often set off a constant ache or sensation of coldness. The two physicians (GP's) I consulted said I might be stuck with it for life, but frequent powerballing has relieved my problems entirely.

Additionally, my wrists are much stronger today (quite noticeable when hauling heavy bags of grocieries, or carrying my bike to and fro the balcony) and my lower arm looks truly brutal!

Well Irving those are GREATS news.
Happy for you
