THIS PRODUCT IS NOT RETURNABLE DUE TO IT BEING A MEDICAL/HEALTHCARE PRODUCT. CTAR Ball Premium. Our newest addition to the TheraSIP Family of swallowing treatment products! CTAR Ball Premium offers the same resistance as the CTAR Ball Original except with refinement of the soft, thin feel of the ball’s skin and its ability to be adjusted to the size of the patient via reducing or adding air. This ability to adjust the size without losing the resistance or the shape allows for better comfort for the patient. This product is based on research by Yoon WL et al. (2014), “New Method For Enhancing Suprahyoid Activity Using a Shaker-type Exercise”. CTAR Ball Chin Tuck Against Resistance is a swallowing rehabilitation method used for enhancing suprahyoid muscle activity in lieu of using a sustained head lift (Shaker-type) exercise. Use of the CTAR BALL works to help with the opening of the upper esophagus which allows food to enter the stomach. It works well with elderly clients and for those with neck difficulties who are unable to do the sustained head lift. The CTAR BALL can be used for both isometric (sustained) and isokinetic (sustained) exercises. It also can be used for jaw rehabilitation- JOAR Jaw Opening Against Resistance exercises. Included is a wallet-sized instructional card which can be written on to designate the prescribed number of exercises the clinician recommends for the patient. Ideal addition to any pharyngeal swallow prevention program for radiation patients. Review: So soft and comfortable - I love love this ball. It’s so much more comfortable and easy to use than the original acrylic CTAR apparatus. I used that one for years and suddenly went missing so when looking for a replacement I found the CTAR ball. It’s so easy for my patients. It’s soft, comfortable, easy to clean and easy to carry. Love it! Review: Does the Job - Over priced but quality ball for rehab exercises. Adjustable by air pressure too. Glad I bought it.

A therapy ball when you need it. It is a little "sticky"
Due to some medical issues, my therapist recommended I buy this ball to help me strengthen my neck muscles. It is four inches in diameter and comes inflated. There is a valve on the ball, and you can adjust the inflation using a standard basketball needle and pump. It works perfectly for my exercises, but I do have one issue. The surface of the ball is textured rather than smooth and shiny. This might be to ensure it stays in place while you exercise, but at least in my case it causes the ball to stick to my skin and that's a little uncomfortable during exercise. The discomfort is not enough to prevent me from doing my routine, but it did lead to a four, rather than five star review.
