Massage Balls for Chronic Foot Pain and Tension/Tightness

More and more of my patients with a variety of foot problems have turned to these spiky massage balls to help with their conditions. And, I have noticed some help to many patients. I love ice for inflammation in the form of a frozen sports bottle, or heat for tissue loosening with warm water in a metal bottle, but there is a place with chronic conditions just to massage.
