RAD Atom is a large, extra hard massage ball that is ideal for treating larger muscle groups such as shoulders, glutes and adductors. Its design allows for deep, controlled self-massage to help release muscle tension and promote recovery.

Two types of use:

Self-contained use: The RAD Atom is an effective tool in itself and is recommended primarily for massaging larger muscle groups. Due to its size, the pressure exerted by the Atom is not as intense as with a smaller massage ball.
Combined use with the RAD Rod: by passing the RAD Rod through the centre of the Atom, a precision tensioning device is obtained, allowing deeper, controlled pressure and more effective mobilisation of fascial tissues.

RAD Atom’s material and surface design provide just the right amount of grip on the skin, helping to loosen surface tissues and reach deeper layers. The spherical shape allows for multi-directional pressure, which is particularly effective in treating flattened, constricted fascial areas.

SIZE MATTERS

When you think of spot muscle relaxation, you probably think of tiny massage tools that can work in the tightest of places. When you think of a self-massage on a large surface, the image of a big, cumbersome foam roller is bound to spring to mind. RAD Atom is the sweet spot between the two. It's the perfect size to use in hard-to-reach areas like the inner shoulder, hips or trapezius, but it does so with a much smaller surface area - and therefore more pressure - than a foam roller.

ATTACK FROM ALL DIRECTIONS

Surprise! The RAD Atom is round for a reason. When you look at muscles under a microscope, you realise that they are more spatial than planar. This is why fascial force transfer occurs in all directions, not just linearly. A spherical device such as the RAD Atom can "attack" adhesions and constricted fascial parts from several angles (especially in combination with the RAD Rod). And this 360 degree attack is incredibly effective.

WHAT SHOULD YOU CONSIDER?

SIZE MATTERS

The size of the tool you choose will affect how your body reacts. For example, treating your tight hamstrings with the normal firmness Roller will give you a more intense sensation than using the Rod. Although the table shows that the normal Roller is softer than the Rod, it has a smaller surface area in contact with your body and therefore "penetrates" the tissues better. Because of the Rod's larger contact area, and the fact that you're applying the force with your arms, it's less intense.

THE SURFACE YOU'RE LYING ON

Use on a softer surface, such as a carpet, to reduce the intensity. On a hard surface - such as lying on the floor - the instrument feels harder, the sensation is more intense.

MUSCLE TIGHTNESS

Even a softer tool will have a powerful effect on particularly tight muscles, especially if it is a tool with a smaller surface area. For example, if your hamstring muscles are very tight and you are using the soft Roller, even this relatively soft tool will produce a more intense sensation than the harder but more oversized Axle.

WHY IS THE ATOM BETTER FOR LARGE MUSCLE GROUPS?

The larger muscle groups are ... well ... larger. :) The size and firmness of the Atom has been adjusted to help you work those big muscles effectively. For example: pectoralis muscles, gluteus muscles, hamstrings.

USING THE ATOM AFTER A LEG DAY

The Atom is perfect for the legs. Just right for your glutes and high enough to reach your groin, hamstrings and calves. The force is with you, so you can precisely control the weight you put on the device, and therefore the intensity you apply.

WHICH OTHER TOOLS CAN I COMBINE IT WITH?

RAD Atom can be combined with Rod and Axle. Sticking the end of the Rod into the Atom gives you a kind of "crowbar" that you can use to twist the layers of fabric together, or you can roll yourself into it by sticking it all the way in. By placing the Atom on the Axle, you can comfortably massage your pectoral muscles, opening up your shoulders and upper back.

SHOULD I CHOOSE THE ROLLER OR THE ATOM?

Well, that's a difficult question. It would be best to have both ... The Roller is primarily designed to work the muscles along the spine - although it is extremely versatile - and the Atom is ideal for the larger muscles of the body.

WHY SHOULD I TREAT MY HIP?

When you feel that your hips are tight, it is an indication that the systems above and below them (such as the muscles in the lower back) are overstretched. If your hips don't rotate enough, the lumbar section is forced to help out, putting strain on the back vertebrae and ligaments. In short: free your hips, freeing your back!

HOW DO I KNOW IF MY GLUTES OR HIPS ARE TIGHT?

Can you squat down completely without your heels coming off the ground? Can you sit in a squat position with your knees on the floor? If not, it is quite likely that your gluteal muscles and/or hips are tight. But don't worry! Use Atom regularly, go mobile and see the progress!

WHAT WARRANTY APPLIES TO THE PRODUCTS?

So-called lifetime guarantee. This means precisely that we provide a continuous guarantee for the products for as long as the production of the product is not stopped. This only applies to manufacturing defects. So if you have a RAD Roller that breaks after say 3 years, you report it to us and if the breakage is due to a manufacturing defect, we will send you a new Roller.

DO THE PRODUCTS CURE ANY DISEASE?

No. These products - although they are health aids - and help to regain/improve our mobility and flexibility (even with very spectacular results), they do not cure a specific disease.

WHAT ARE THE CONTRAINDICATIONS?

Severe osteoporosis. (If you have weak osteoporosis, consult your doctor!)
Fracture.
Tumour disease.
Around open wounds.
On parts of the body with oedema and haematoma.
If you are pregnant, consult your doctor or physiotherapist.

IF I AM NOT HEALTHY, CAN I USE THE PRODUCTS?

It depends on what the problem is. If you have cancer, you should not use them. If you just have a cold, feel free. If you are unsure, consult your doctor or ask our physiotherapist for advice.

HOW OFTEN SHOULD I USE THEM?

Preferably every day. The effect of manual therapy is permanent if it is used regularly. Experimental results have shown that at least 2 weeks of therapy is recommended for long-term results.

HOW LONG SHOULD A TREATMENT LAST?

5-10 deep breaths are enough for each position.

WHAT DO I NEED TO FEEL TO KNOW I'M DOING IT RIGHT?

You will feel a slight pain during the treatment. A little more severe pain in the worse resections and sensitive nodules (trigger points). However, it is important to remember that it is not good if it hurts too much. If you trigger too much pain, your body's defence mechanism kicks in and you involuntarily contract your muscles, which is exactly the opposite of your goal (to relax your muscles).

WHEN DO I FEEL THE EFFECTS OF THE EXERCISE?

Contact us using the contact details at the top of the page or by filling in the contact form. You can also call our physiotherapist directly on +36309895315.

HOW CAN I ASK FOR HELP IF I AM UNSURE?

Right after the treatment. In some cases, the change in mobility and flexibility will be very spectacular. Any pain you may be experiencing will also be reduced almost immediately. However, the effects of a single treatment wear off relatively quickly. Long-term change can be achieved through regular use.

SHOULD I MOVE AFTER AN SMR TREATMENT?

You don't have to, but if you want to permanently increase your range of motion, it's a good idea to do mobilisation exercises to lock in your newly acquired range of motion.
