Zen Core
TRIGGER POINT
MASSAGE
The Zen Core Massage Balls & Peanuts offer an incredible do-it-yourself trigger point massage option. Zen Core originally started with sports socks, but they have long since gone beyond that. With the Zen Core Massage products, the painful trigger points can be optimally treated and tension in the muscles relieved. But not every massage ball and every massage peanut is the same. Here you can find out everything about the different Zen Core trigger point massage products.

Here, too, you can optimally massage the tension thanks to the three different degrees of hardness:

Orange → medium
Red → hard

The Zen Core Peanuts are primarily used on the back along the spine. They take the pressure off the spine and massage the muscles by the spine. The distance between the two balls serves to protect the spine and ensures that the muscles next to the spine can be treated.
The Massage Peanuts are not difficult to use either. We have also prepared a small tutorial for you.
Trigger Point Massage
Peanut Soft
The difference to the peanuts included in the set is the material, because instead of normal rubber, which has a cavity in the middle, we have used soft rubber without a cavity. The peanut is therefore a bit firmer and more stable and can release even stronger tension as even more pressure can be exerted.
You can see how easy it is to use the Zen Core Massage Peanut Soft in our tutorial.

What is a
Trigger Point Massage?
80-90% of all muscular pain can be attributed to limited local muscle dysfunction and muscle hardening. The trigger points themselves are very small and often do not cause pain, which makes them all the more difficult to locate. When they transmit the pain to other, distant parts of the body, trigger points become a problem. For example, hardened muscles in the neck often cause a tension headache. With a trigger point massage, these trigger points are then pressed or massaged, which relieves the pain and its side-effects, such as the tension headaches.
Effect of
Trigger Point Massage
With targeted and regular massages, it is possible to increase muscle elasticity, prevent muscle fatigue and enhance performance. What athlete can say no to that?
hard / hart
medium / mittel
soft / leicht
Application of
Trigger Point Massage
The self-performed trigger point massage is also called myofascial relaxation and has been a part of many training plans for some time. At this point we have to mention that trigger point massages are painful. However, every athlete knows that the path to improving performance can be painful.
When using the Zen Core massage devices, it is important to know that you do not necessarily have to go to the maximum pain limit when you carry out a massage yourself. Excessive pressure can cause further contraction instead of relaxation. An increase in the intensity of the trigger point massage can be achieved, for example, by first using the Zen Core massage devices vertically on the wall and only then lying on the floor in the second phase.
