As I have bought it for a present for an eye surgeon who needs a lot of hands care, I had to test drive it first.
It’s a wonderful product! I rolled it all over my breasts and lymph nods after shower. Never felt better in my life the next morning.
Thank you. Super awesome gift!

I have Duputyren's contracture in both hands that results in either discomfort or pain in my right (dominant) hand. I ordered the aku ball in hopes of receiving some relief. I really like this little black ball. It absolutely does provide relief and I find myself reaching for it often. It's really addictive,
but I consider this to be a very positive addiction, like committing to a clean, healthy diet. In fact, I've decided to order the roller next. I highly recommend these products.

This is a wonderful sensation. Too early to say how effective it will be. Great customer service. Thank you.

I purchased the aku ball because of bone spurs from a neck fusion. I originally wanted the aku roller, but purchased the ball due to be sold out. Initially I tried rolling over the strained area (which helps), however, when you find the right reflex spot...oh boi. For my neck strain, it's the elbow, what a feeling or just rolling the ball in my hand helps.
P.S...I had a set of aku rings, I have no idea how they work, but to me they WORK. Thank you aku

Best product EVER

I love this ball! I use it regularly, both at the gym and at my desk. It provides such relief!

So last week I went to play a drop-in hockey game and had tied my skates way too tight (haven't played in almost 2 years). Both foot arches ended up cramping and I could barely walk when I got home. Tried heat pack and massage, didn't do much. Then I remembered I had the akuspike ball, so I hobbled over to give it a try. It didn't make the tightness and pain go away completely, but just a few minutes of rolling this around with my feet and it felt much much better. We'll enough that I could walk normally again. It was like magic.

Relaxes you just rolling it on your hands great product.
Juanita K.

Love the Aku ball. I roll it on my arthritic fingers and even rolled my feet tonight- amazing!
Really appreciate the rings to- help my fingers feel so much better!
Marie-Eve P.
Perfect after a workout for hands. Also a good stress relief!
Nicole L.
Love it! My son is a hockey player and gets sore hands from shooting so many pucks. He uses it every day:)

Works wonders on my hands after a long day at work!

The spike ball is almost addicting to play around with in my hand and roll around on areas I need circulation in!
Thank you for including free rings, they help when my hands and fingers go cold/numb on my desk job.
Darin S.
Fees great and easy to use
Gareck G.
Haven't gotten to use it a lot or on areas for muscle repair, but have felt the warm sensation from rolling it around on my arms/wrists which is a neat feeling. This also helped my arms feel looser which comes in handy with a typing/handywork job.
Good stuff!
Daniel L.
I have been using the ball on my hands, neck, arms, ankle...where ever I feel I need to like lactic acid after working out.
Adão T.
Excelente!! Estava com 2 dedos sempre dobrados e com dores,depois de começar a usar ,os dedos voltaram praticamente à normalidade e sem dores.
Recomendo, porque quando recebi o Aku ball e experimentei, notei logo uma diferença enorme.
Sidney M.
I really wanted to buy the mat but thought that I should start with the ball - to try it out. I am still experimenting with the ball, but so far, I like it. It does give me tension relief especially on my shoulder / neck / jaw areas. I believe as I become more skilled with use, my relief will increase. I picked this product because of the metal and amount of surface spikes. Thanks AKUSPIKE.
Garett O.
I am getting used to it but would like to use it on my back more. However, I need someone else to run it over my back and wonder if the roller would have been better. The ball is cool though. I am still figuring out how to best use it. The Aku mat intrigues me for my back problems and I wish I could try it first. The only thing I think that would make this/these products better is having the ability to try it first to get the proper product for what I need.

02-20-2021 AKU Roller and AKU Ball Review, This is a High Quality Roller. I have used this for 3 days so far, best way to sum up both my wife and my experience is "WOW!! This is AWESOME!! my wife has Sciatica for about a year now the AKU Roller has provided the MOST relief so far to date. The Feeling need to start with light pressure, then about a minute into a session more pressure Feels Great!, I Noticed a release of Tension/stiffness everywhere I used the Roller on, But the Neck, Once I was Finished with the Roller on the Back, I did NOT feel a great deal of heat Front Base of Skull Down to Feet, UNTIL I used the AKU BALL on the NECK, Once I used the Ball on the Neck, a Sensation of Heat, that was fairly Hot travelled down from the Base of the Skul into the shoulders, down the Complete Spine, Down the Legs, and Into the Bottoms of Feet all the places we used the roller on, it was Like the AKU Ball used on the Neck Actived a major Heating of Complete Back of the Entire Body, it was a Very strange feeling That I Really LOVE. The Neck is a Very hard to get area and REQUIRES the use of a AKU Ball. I should Note that After My wife used the Roller on my complete Back, From Shoulders down to Bottoms of Feet cover all areas of the Back of the Entire Body, I noticed My Neck afterward Got Very stiff, and felt a Energy Congestion in the Neck Only, at that point is when I rolled the Aku Ball all over in a Vertical Pattern down the neck, my Neck Cracked many Times as it Loosened up all stiffness in the Neck, this created the Hugh amount of Heating down the entire spine, this has happened the same way every time of have used Both of these Product together, For me the Aku Roller and Aku Ball Must be used together to get a Total Benefit, From Head to Toe. Sleep, I noticed a Autonomous Nervous System Shift to Parasympathetic, My sleep was Deep and Long. My wife and I both Love these Two AKU Spike Products and are waiting to receive the AKU Mat.
Cameron Langlois
I work at a desk all day long and use the Aku ball to roll out my wrists and forearms. I find it's helped immensely with my wrist strain from using my keyboard for extended periods of time.
Not only that but it just feels great to fidget with.
Would recommend without question.
Corine Eli
I received my ball in 2 days with my Prime order. I keep the AKU ball at my desk and roll it between my palms multiple times day. Its so invigorating & has been helping with the carpel tunnel in my wrists & stiff fingers. I also love gently rolling it under my feet & along my neck. I really feel like its helping with circulation. I highly recommend the AKU ball its great!
Hamish Davidson
I’ve been struggling with recurring joint inflammation in my neck that has caused intense referred pain into my upper back and shoulder blades. This has been going on for months and I have tried everything from physiotherapy, acupuncture, chiropractic adjustments, massage and even high powered shockwave ultrasound. Through trial and error I’ve found that bi weekly massage, along with a targeted stretching routine has been the most helpful method of treatment. Because the muscles around the joint are so tight I need to loosen them up before I can adequately stretch, and the only thing that has allowed me to do that in between massage treatments is the Akuball. Every day I roll it along my upper neck and between my shoulders and within 5 minutes I have relieved enough tension to gain the proper of motion that lets the stretches be effective. It hurts a little at first, but in a way that lets you know that you are really targeting tight muscles. It feels fantastic. This thing has honestly been a lifesaver; it’s allowed me to stay in the gym and workout as well as play golf 4 times a week. Being able to keep these things in my schedule is what keeps me sane. Thank you AKU!!!
Chris Baker
The Aku ball is a great companion to the Aku mat as it can get to areas like the sides of the neck and it's nice for the hands. It has been amazing at relaxing my fingers and providing blood flow while in between typing at work. It's a great size for traveling with and has good build quality.
Bruce Bain
Size makes it convenient to take along in trips.
Melissa Komins
My gf got one and I had to after trying hers. It does help with circulation and I would even buy it as a gift because its that good. Feet, hands, shoulder, my elbow, I have tendonitis and it has helped with the pain at my inside elbow as I have rolled it around. It does work people, not a gimmick!
Shantel Kalakalo
I am enjoying this product.
Fiona Gaid
Only used several times. Product is good quality.
Cannot assess benefits yet.
Kevin Waterhouse
It has been the best thing I have tried to releave the pain from planter fasciitis.
Kat Valeris
This tool was recommended to me by a family member, who happens to be a doctor. The benefits of using it on an everyday basis are extremely valuable for maintaining a healthy body and a healthy mind. I would recommend it to anyone who suffers from tense muscles and other tension related aches in their body.
Gary Hughes
Great product.
Ernest Chow
Great concept but doesn't actually get used much. It hurts your hands to apply enough pressure needed for sore muscles, and so can only really be used for bottom of foot. Wish it came with some sort of protective glove.
Randy Seaton
Love the product. Looking at buying the mat now.
Henry Cleghorn
I bring my AKU BALL with me everywhere. This ball is essential for athletes, but it is also incredibly helpful to anyone looking to reduce stress or tension. I use it before and after workouts and I've noticed that my recovery time is so much faster since using it. I recommend it to everyone!
Kirsten Smalls
It look smaller than the pictures
Priscus Hants
Really simple to use. Really simple to take with you.
Great for taking a few minutes out of your day to reduce anxiety/stress
Alex Clarke
I love the versatility of the ball compared to the mat. It is easy to pack and take with me while travelling or to keep at work and use on my hands or shoulders when feeling tired or stressed. My body craves my Aku products now!
Charlie Backs
This product has become a key part of my warmups before the gym and hockey. It's hard to describe the feeling you get with this product. I find it allows me to open up my lungs and calm my nerves before games. I highly recommend this product. In addition, they have great customer support and stand by their product.
Dale Peters
Has hundreds of sharp points that stimulate wherever you choose to apply pressure. It does help to control chronic pain. I also use it carefully on my scalp and it is relaxing to a point.
Norman Campbell
Feels good
Alice Mard
Amazing worth the money
Kids love it
Wife loves it
I love it
Even my cat loves it
Tracy Milne
The acupuncture pins help stimulate blood flow to injured area and decrease numbness in my hand. Tried it on my feet and it collapsed. It didn't remain a sphere, one side concave and other side convex.
Victoria Field
I had the opportunity to see and try the product at an event recently, and couldn't believe how satisfying the product was to roll around in your hands. My hands felt great afterwards - which is saying something, because they never feel great! I struggle with carpel tunnel and poor circulation which makes working on a computer incredibly difficult. I was excited to learn about the benefits of acupressure and what Aku could do for me. Excited to receive my product tomorrow to really put it to the test! I am looking forward to the benefits on my wrists, hands and tight neck.
Also - having had the opportunity to meet the folks behind the brand, I can say that they truly stand behind their mission to promote self care and healthy living. Great guys!
Leif Hanson
Overpriced but works
Dennis Mohyluk
Exactly as advertised.
Red Sonya
This ball has been life-changing for me! I have lived with chronic pain for decades and this spike ball helps me self-massage parts of my body that I normally couldn't reach. It instantly tackles tension and pain in ways that nothing in my large arsenal of tools could even come close to! It has become my favourite, go-to tool for tackling my chronic pain.
Michael Banks
Received my Aku ball in the mail today, and as a new mom,it helps soothe my neck and arms after a long day of carrying and feeding a baby. I also ordered the Aku Mat which I use to unwind at the end of a long day. Both products are awesome and I would highly recommend.
James Frank
Great Product. As someone who carries stress in my shoulders and neck I found this as a great tool reduce the pain. I have tried similar products however have found this to be the most effective in relieving stress to my hands, arms, neck, and shoulders. I keep the aku ball at my desk and find myself using it throughout the day. It would also make for a great gift for someone you know who could use some stress relief!
Pasha Eshghi
This is the best purchase I've made in a while. As a filmmaker, I often spend long hours holding my camera in uncomfortable positions which in the past has led to numbness and tingling in my forearms and hands. The Aku Ball works incredibly well to promote blood flow to the areas and restore sensation. It's also a lot of fun to just squeeze and use as a stress ball. Highly recommend!
Nicole Smith
Best stress ball ever!
Mohamed Ali
I often don't leave reviews, but this product is pretty stellar. I saw it while watching Dragon Den and got curious so did my research on it and decided to purchase it. I have been using it for a couple of days now and I can already feel the benefits. I am just starting to get back into the gym and it helps with sore muscles. I also suffer from anxiety and this helps to centre/ground me. I'm trying to incorporate it in my morning and night routines. I recommend this for anyone looking for a cheaper yet effective alternative to traditional acupuncture therapy.
Harris Barns
the ball allows one to target specific areas of tension or pain. it's very effective. holding it in your hand to apply it also helps stiffness in the hands as well
Spencer Main
I have extremely tight and sore neck/shoulder muscles from living an active lifestyle and also sitting in front of a computer for hours at a time. I have tried other massage tools, however, they don't offer the long lasting and immediate benefits that AKU Ball does. I use the AKU ball each day by rolling it along the neck muscles to relieve any built up stiffness - it is amazing how well it works and makes stretching so much easier. The AKU Ball has done wonders for my neck stiffness is now part of my daily morning and night routine!
Ariel Hurst
I have both the Aku Ball and Aku Mat and have been very impressed with each of them. The Mat has been particularly helpful for my feet. The distributed acupressure points have helped release tension; really great after any strenuous sporting activities.
The ball has been just as effective as the mat. I’ve found it easiest to use around the arms, neck and shoulder areas, all of which have felt the tension release after just a few minutes of use. The ball is light easy to toss into your gym bag - I suggest keeping the small box it comes with as a travel case.
