How is the Meteor’s vibration special?
The Frequencies that the Meteor vibrates at are 30, 60, and 90Hz. The levels of vibration, particularly the lower settings, have been found to be in the optimal ranges for pain relief and muscular recovery

What does heat do for my body?
Heat is a great modality that improves blood flow which in turn speeds the rate of nutrient replenishment. Heat can help your body to feel better and recover faster.

While cold can be effective for the first 48 hours after an injury, after that the healing effects of cold are limited. Heat brings you the same pain relief while also speeding recovery.

Therapeutic Heat
With temperatures up to 120 F The Meteor’s the only self-heating massage ball that reaches therapeutic levels of heat!
Through the therapeutic self-heating, The Meteor improves blood circulation leading to faster recovery and reduction in pain. This process replenishes your body’s depleted nutrients after workouts.
Soothing Vibration
The Meteor utilizes MyoStorm’s Ultrasoothe vibration technology that has multiple levels of scientifically-backed, therapeutic vibration optimized for treating chronic pain and reducing muscle stiffness.
It’s perfect for stiff muscles, knots, soreness after workouts, and is perfectly calibrated for everyday aches and pains and even the most tender spots.
The soothing vibration gives your muscles a deep massage that's more effective at pain relief and muscle recovery than anything on the market.
The vibration also increases blood flow, enhancing and accelerating the effects of heat maximizing it's effectiveness.
The Meteor decreases muscle stiffness by 50% after only 30 seconds of use, reducing recovery times drastically.
Ideal Size For Trigger Point Release
What makes The Meteor the ultimate tool in recovery is the ability to hit trigger points and target any sore or tender spots like the neck, back, hamstrings, calves, quads, arms and everything in between.
It’s TSA approved! And its compact size and rechargeable battery make it easy to take anywhere on the go.
How the Meteor Came to Be
The METEOR was designed based on ground-breaking research conducted by our co-founder Jonothan DiPeri in conjunction with our scientific advisory board.
