The RAD Atom is a large, extra hard massage ball that is ideal for treating larger muscle groups such as shoulders, glutes and adductors. Its design allows for deep, controlled self-massage to help release muscle tension and promote recovery.

Two types of use:

Self-contained use: The RAD Atom is an effective tool in itself and is recommended primarily for massaging larger muscle groups. Due to its size, the pressure exerted by the Atom is not as intense as with a smaller massage ball.
Combined use with the RAD Rod: by passing the RAD Rod through the centre of the Atom, a precision tensioning device is obtained, allowing deeper, controlled pressure and more effective mobilisation of fascial tissues.

RAD Atom’s material and surface design provide just the right amount of grip on the skin, helping to loosen surface tissues and reach deeper layers. The spherical shape allows for multi-directional pressure, which is particularly effective in treating flattened, constricted fascial areas.

Description

WHAT AFFECTS HOW INTENSE IT FEELS?

Contact surface size: Smaller contact area = deeper, more intense sensation. Larger surface = more even, diffused pressure. This explains why tools of the same firmness can feel different.

The surface you're working on: The sensation is softer on a soft carpet, firmer on the floor. If something feels too intense, try it on a carpet.

Muscle tension: Even a softer tool can feel intense on particularly tight muscles. That's okay—it indicates that area needs the work.

WHY IS THE ATOM BETTER FOR LARGE MUSCLE GROUPS?

The larger muscle groups are ... well ... larger. 🙂 The size and hardness of the Atom is adjusted to help you handle these big muscles effectively. For example: pectoral muscles, gluteus, hamstrings.

USE OF THE ATOM AFTER A FOOT DAY

The Atom is perfect for the feet. It's just right for your glutes and tall enough to reach your groin, hamstrings and calves. The power is with you, so you can precisely control the weight you put on the tool, and thus the intensity you apply.

WHICH OTHER TOOLS CAN I COMBINE IT WITH?

RAD Atom can be combined with Rod and Axle. Plugging the end of the Rod into the Atom gives you a kind of "crowbar" that you can use to twist layers of fabric together, or roll yourself into it by plugging it all the way in. By putting the Atom on the Axle, you can comfortably massage your pecs, opening up your shoulders and upper back.

SHOULD I CHOOSE THE ROLLER OR THE ATOM?

Well, that's a difficult question. It would be best to have both... The Roller is mainly for the muscles near the spine - although it has a wide range of uses - and the Atom is ideal for the larger muscles of the body.

WHY SHOULD I TREAT MY HIP?

When you feel tight in your hips, it is a sign that the systems above and below are overstretched (such as the muscles in the lower back). If your hips aren't rotating enough, the lumbar section is being forced to help out, putting strain on the vertebrae and ligaments in your back. In short: free up your hips, freeing up your back!

HOW DO I KNOW IF MY GLUTES OR HIPS ARE TIGHT?

Can you squat down completely without your heels coming off the ground? Can you sit in a squat position with your knees touching the ground? If not, it's quite likely that your glutes and/or hips are tight. But don't worry! Use the Atom regularly, get mobile and see the progress!

WHAT GUARANTEE APPLIES TO THE PRODUCTS?

So-called lifetime guarantee. This means precisely that we provide a continuous guarantee for the products for as long as the production of the product is not stopped. This only applies to manufacturing defects. So if you have a RAD Roller that breaks after, say, 3 years, you let us know and if the break is due to a manufacturing defect, we'll send you a new Roller.

DO THE PRODUCTS CURE ANY DISEASE?

No. These products - although they are health aids - and they help to regain/improve our mobility and flexibility (even with very spectacular results), they do not cure a specific disease.

WHAT ARE THE CONTRAINDICATIONS?

Severe osteoporosis. (If you have mild osteoporosis, consult your doctor.)
Breakage.
Cancer.
Around open wounds.
On parts of the body with oedema and haematoma.
If you are pregnant, consult your doctor or physiotherapist.

IF I AM NOT HEALTHY, CAN I USE THE PRODUCTS?

It depends on what the problem is. If you have cancer, you should not use them. If you just have a cold, feel free. If you are unsure, consult your doctor or ask our physiotherapist for advice.

HOW OFTEN SHOULD I USE THEM?

Preferably every day. The effect of manual therapy is permanent if it is used regularly. Experimental results have shown that at least 2 weeks of therapy is recommended for long-term results.

HOW LONG SHOULD A TREATMENT LAST?

5-10 deep breaths are enough for each position.

WHAT DO I NEED TO FEEL TO KNOW I'M DOING IT RIGHT?

You will feel a slight pain during the treatment. A little more severe pain in the worse resections and sensitive nodules (trigger points). However, it is important to remember that it is not good if it hurts too much. If you trigger too much pain, your body's defence mechanism kicks in and you involuntarily contract your muscles, which is exactly the opposite of your goal (to relax your muscles).

WHEN WILL I FEEL THE EFFECTS OF THE EXERCISE?

Contact us using the contact details at the top of the page or by filling in the contact form. You can also call our physiotherapist directly at +36309895315.

HOW CAN I ASK FOR HELP IF I AM UNSURE?

Right after the treatment. In some cases, the change in mobility and flexibility will be very spectacular. Any pain you may be experiencing will also be reduced almost immediately. However, the effects of a single treatment wear off relatively quickly. Long-term change can be achieved through regular use.

DO I NEED TO MOVE AFTER AN SMR TREATMENT?

You don't have to, but if you want to permanently increase your range of motion, it's a good idea to do mobilisation exercises to lock in your newly acquired range of motion.

THE MEASURE SIZES

When you think of spot muscle relaxation, you probably think of tiny massage tools that can work on the tightest of areas. When you think of self-massage on a large surface, the first image that probably springs to mind is of a big, cumbersome foam roller. RAD Atom is the happy medium between the two. It's the perfect size to use on hard-to-reach areas such as the inner shoulder, hips or trapezius, but it does so with a much smaller surface area - and therefore more pressure - than a foam roller.

ATTACK FROM ALL DIRECTIONS

Surprise! The RAD Atom is round for a reason. When you look at muscles under a microscope, you realise that they are more spatial than planar. That is why fascial force transfer occurs in all directions, not just linearly. A spherical device such as the RAD Atom can "attack" the depressions and constricted fascial parts from multiple angles (especially in combination with the RAD Rod). This 360 degree attack is incredibly effective.

FOR FREE HIPS

Thanks to the RAD Atom's size and precisely targeted hardness, you'll have excellent access to all the big muscles you want to work. With the most dynamic tool in our range, you get the benefits of two worlds: the precision of a massage ball and the 'rolling' experience of a massage roller. The Atom is particularly recommended for the following:
