Chinese Balls Information

Health Benefits of Chinese Baoding Balls

Chinese balls, also known as Baoding balls, are believed to have originated from the Baoding region of China during the Ming dynasty. Chinese balls can be used in a variety of ways, for example, they can be used for exercise. Rotating the Baoding balls in one hand one should try to maintain constant contact between them whilst being able to switch the direction of rotation. With experience more Chinese balls can be added to the exercise and, the eventual aim is to be able to rotate the balls without them making contact with one another. These exercises increase both grip and forearm strength and require much practice.

Chinese balls are also very popular in alternative medicine as they massage the acupuncture points of the hand. Traditional Chinese medicine views the hand as having connections to the energy points of the body, through stimulation with Chinese balls it is believed circulation is improved and energy levels increase. In fact, the balls are sometimes prescribed by Chinese doctors to those with low energy levels!
