Collection of exercises with hand massage balls

Our hand training collection contains specific exercises and techniques for musicians – from beginner to advanced – and for non-musicians. The collection comprises both videos and text descriptions of the exercises. The exercises are divided into five sections, each of which has a different focus.

A: rotating the balls in the upward-facing palm of the hand; three levels of difficulty.
B: tracing straight and diagonal lines in the upward-facing palm of the hand; four levels of difficulty.
C: combining circles, straight and diagonal lines in the upward-facing palms of both hands simultaneously.
D: rolling the balls with one finger, between the fingers or between a finger and a suitable surface while the palm of the hand is facing downward; three levels of difficulty.
E: is an extension of the previous exercises. By adding an easy-to-make accessory, you can further improve the flexibility of your fingers. This is particularly beneficial for instrumentalists. We also offer ideas for tailoring the exercises to different instrument groups based on the way these instruments are held.

Suitable balls

In principle, all types of balls can be used. We do recommend hand massage balls made of solid stainless steel. They have the advantage of being relatively heavy, thus achieving a more intense physiological training effect.

The exact size of the balls needs to be determined through trying out. As a general rule, larger balls have a noticeably greater effect; however, the size of the balls should be chosen with care: beginners are advised to train with smaller balls. You can find guidance of sizes, including guidelines and illustrations in the description of the recommended stainless steel balls.
