When Bala first debuted on Shark Tank back in 2020, it took the fitness world by storm. Proving style and substance could go hand in hand, the brand’s hero product—the Bala Bangle—was a fresh take on an otherwise ho-hum workout enhancer: the ankle weight.

Sleek, stylish and downright fun, the Bala bangle was at the top of everyone’s wish list, surging in popularity during the pandemic and continuing to sell out from there. Since then, the brand has proven it’s so much more than a one-hit-wonder with the release of the Bala Bars, the Power Ring and the Bala Beam (to name a few), all equally sparkly as they are sweat-inducing.

And now they’ve done it again.

Bala

Meet The Massage Trio—Bala’s newest suite of products that’s about to level up your recovery routine. Designed for “self-myofascial trigger point release, acupressure, plantar fasciitis and reflexology,” according to the brand, the trio includes Mini Orb (perfect for feet), Hourglass (hello, calves) and Bumpy Ball (glutes, baby!) to help hit every sore spot no matter how small or hard to reach.

Myofascial trigger point-a-what? Allow us to explain. Myofascial release therapy is a specific type of pressure massage that can help relieve tightness and reduce inflammation throughout your myofascial tissue (aka the thin connective lining that surrounds basically everything in the body, including your muscles). Releasing those areas can help improve your muscle and joint movement, leading to less pain and more gains over time.

Made from Bala’s signature baby-soft silicone that’s easy to clean and easy on the eyes, The Massage Trio is available now in two bright colorways (Charcoal/Blush/Sand and Sea/Sage/Heather) for $49 at shopbala.com. Each purchase also comes with a mesh carrying case for easy storage and travel.

Happy fascia freeing!
