Chinese Baoding Therapy Balls have been utilized for centuries as a therapeutic aid for relaxation and stress release, to relax muscles and joints, maintain suppleness and flexibility of the hands, help stimulate blood circulation, and an aid for emotional health. These balls are handcrafted using cloisonne enamel with gold highlights on metal hollow balls that contain chiming plates inside. Each ball has it's own unique rhythmical chime when utilized correctly. The sound aids in the relaxation process. Place them both in one hand and roll them with your thumb and fingers, continuously in either a clockwise or anticlockwise direction. Be careful where you practice using these as you are becoming familiar with them. The cloisonne finish is breakable, as I discovered many years ago. No two balls are identical and colors may vary slightly. The finish is not always perfectly smooth, often you will find a little bubble or two on them. Please note that this is a copied listing from the one sold. The balls & box are the same design & color. The Dragon and Phoenix are strong symbols of unity between a man and woman in the Chinese culture. The Chinese dragon is the embodiment of the concept of yang (male), while phoenix is the yin (female). The balls were purchased in bulk, the embroidered boxes are not in new condition. The box is approximately 4" x 2.25" x 2.25". Smoke-free home shared with 2 kitties. Bundle to save shipping cost, get a discount and a free gift too!
