Customer Review: A Study in Opposites: Rings & Thuds
Summary: 5 Stars
Having read various product reviews on Chinese healthy balls and having sampled some sets of them for myself, I decided to give this set of balls a try too. I thought it might be nice to have this extra set for my office. I also wanted to have a pair of Chinese balls that featured a different design than my other ones.
Chinese healthy balls are meant to be a kind of personal relaxation / skill building therapy. The ideas of stress relief, of increased dexterity, and of pain reduction for working / busy hands appealed to me because I do a lot of computer work and other specific handiwork that requires limber, strong hands. Being interested in world cultures, Eastern ideas, and art, I loved the Yin Yang / MANDALA designs.
This ball set arrived in a nice, red storage box, which could also serve as a display. Each of these balls was smooth and heavy. Inside the storage box, there was a direction booklet, "Iron Ball Direction," which contained text in both Chinese and English. The statement from this booklet that captured my attention was this: "Of a pair of balls, one sounds high and one low." That fact just begged to be tested--just as I had tested my other Chinese balls! :) I discovered that this YIN YANG set was very different from the other ball set (phoenix / dragon) that I had. In this Yin Yang set, one ball produced the resonating, bright bell-like sound that I expected from a meditation ball. The other ball produced a sound that was definitely lower, almost thud like, as if it were mute or as if it wasn't perfect or as if something wasn't quite right inside. I had read a review somewhere on Amazon about a product similar to this that had the same "affliction," and the reviewer believed that the product might have had a defect inside that spoiled the sound. However, the more I thought about this, the more I wondered if this so-called affliction was actually an intended feature for the "personality" of this particular ball set: Yin Yang... a study and / or recognition of opposites, the duality in the world. What could be more opposite from a resonating ring than a muted thud? As I played with each ball separately and then together, examining them carefully for any visible damage, I began to belief that this was the case; Yin and Yang were intentionally present in sound in this set. No affliction! :) [The balls had been shipped nicely, and the storage box was in fine shape. There was nothing to indicate a problem / defect or any mistreatment. ]
Except for the sound, the thudding ball operated in my hand the same as the resonating ball. When I move the balls, I can feel their unique vibrations passing from the metal into my hand. These vibrations do have a calming affect. The opposite nature of these balls offers the meditator a subtle reminder of things operating in harmony and balance. Some people may NOT like this aspect of this particular ball set; I recommend that they try the phoenix / dragon set, where both balls produce resonating ball-like tones.
These healthy balls are worth getting if you want to treat your hands to gentle, but effective exercises.
Note: if you have small hands, these balls might be a handful, especially if your a a beginner to this type of therapy. Small-handed people might prefer to begin with smaller balls such as those in the Running Press Zen Meditation Balls mini kit, which is available on Amazon.
