Stability Balls

[Jancorrin]

Does SNM sell the larger stability balls? I have only seen 55cm and 65 cm balls on sale in the stores. I know that they come in 75cm and 85cm, because my physical therapist has those larger sizes. Does anyone have any suggestions? My ball is too small because when I sit on it, my knees are up too high. Thanks!:7

Hi, I would like to konw also. Why don't you ask your physical therapist where he/she ordered their's from and post again. Thanks.

I don't think SNM sells the stablility balls but here is a link from their Home Page that features the balls that Cathe uses. My husband & I both have one and are very happy with them. The link also provides you with a size chart for your height.

I don't know if you have a Target store in your area, but they did have a 75 cm ball when I was in there yesterday. It comes with a pump and video for $29.99. You might be able to get it thru their website too. www.target.com good luck...Carole

I went to Sports Authority and Target, but the 75 cm balls were the same size as the 65cm balls when I blew them up. The Sports Authority ball had a slow leak! I'll try the website. Thanks.

Hi, The link that Debbie gave you I also have one and it is great. It is alot different then the one at Target. I also have one that I did get from Target and I can't stand it. A big waste of money IMHO.

I guess I was lucky. The stability ball I got from Target a year ago (65cm) has worked really well without any problems......my hubby has started doing some exercises on it too....although I do think he should get his own ball!......Carole

My physical therapist gets the stability balls from a special supplier. They are "Theraband" balls. The physical therapy assistant stated that she could order a ball for me (75cm), but did not have any idea about the cost. I don't know about you, but I want to have some idea about how much I will have to spend before I order it. I don't want to have a big bill at the end!!

You could get Theraband balls at www.fwonline.com. I would recommend getting the anti burst one. It's much better than the ones you get at the retail store. They are anti burst (of course), inflate better, stay inflate better, maintains its shape better, and in many ways will make your workout harder!

You could also get anti burst balls at www.fitness1st.com. They both have great service. They are fairly reasonably priced at both sites. I got mine at www.fitness1st.com.
