Baoding balls
Baoding balls, also known as Chinese medicine balls, are two or more small, weighted spheres that are traditionally made of metal or stone and are used for exercise and relaxation. Originating from Baoding, China, they are often rolled around in the palm of the hand to enhance dexterity, improve grip strength, and promote hand coordination. Many people use them for stress relief and to stimulate acupressure points, which are believed to enhance overall health. The practice often incorporates rhythmic movements and can be both meditative and physically beneficial.
