The "Belly Ball"-- A Rolling Technique to Help Improve Bowel Function
To the PractitionerThe Belly Ball is made of beautiful New Zealand radiata pine wood, a sustainable resource, grown for harvest.The Belly Ball is offered to your person to roll around their belly during a treatment, and it not only feels great, but helps encourage muscular action as well. The intention is to teach a rolling technique that will be both helpful during a Colon Hydrotherapy treatment, and as a self help aid used on a daily basis for continuing bowel care. I do a lot of massaging around the tummy before and during a treatment, then I invite the person to roll or slide the ball around their tummy at different times during the session. This also gives you a rest from massaging and gives them a chance to focus on their body. I also ask the person to bounce it around their tummy gently, and if a slow bouncing rhythm is continued around the belly, I have found the bowel muscle can connect to that rhythm and start releasing - it's great. It is also helpful just to hold the ball firmly in one place for a minute (as I do with the heel of my hand when I am massaging the belly), this action, with the ball, around the mid transverse area is great to help move trapped gas.  I have been using the "Belly Ball" during treatments and have found that even the more reserved person who normally wouldn't want to do any self massage will be happy to use the ball. It is good to rub some oil on the ball from time to time (I have used grapeseed oil as it does not leave a strong smell), and this will prevent the wood from drying and will enhance the grain. I have written a booklet of instruction, which includes easy to follow diagrams, that comes with the "Belly Ball", and it is presented in either an orange or white organza bag.The ball has a flat base so it can stand on the bedside cabinet or coffee table for regular use, and it looks very attractive too. It is a great little self help tool and the perfect gift to yourself, family or friends."Regular Rolling, Regular Maintenance Work, Regular Movement"Cost: NZ$ 19.95 + GST + Freight TO PURCHASE EMAIL Janice Hamilton hydrohealthspec@xtra.co.nz
