Can I use my ChiBall if I am unwell or pregnant
ChiBalls are some of the safest equipment that can be used for complementary therapy or during pregnancy. ChiBalls comply with the world’s strictest environmental regulations, including the Californian state legislation proposition 65 which prohibits the use of over 550 chemicals that are known to the State of California to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm. The prohibited list contains a wide range of chemicals, including phthalates, BPA, dyes, solvents, pesticides, drugs, food additives, and by-products of certain processes.
How is my ChiBall made?
Your ChiBall™ is uniquely handcrafted and infused with a ChiAroma™, and may vary slightly in size, texture and colour. These variations are perfectly normal and add to the character of your ChiBall™.
ChiBalls are made from plasticised PVC and comply with the world’s strictest environmental regulations, including the Californian state legislation proposition 65 which prohibits the use of over 550 chemicals that are known to the State of California to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm. The prohibited list contains a wide range of chemicals, including phthalates, BPA, dyes, solvents, pesticides, drugs, food additives, and by-products of certain processes. We have tried to ensure your ChiBall contains nothing harmful!
What is in the ChiAroma and where are they made
All our products are made in Australia.  Our ChiAroma is made from ethically sourced essential oils, teatree oil which is added for it’s anti-viral, anti-bacterial and anti-fungal properties, purified water and a natural plant based emulsifier which binds it all together.  The ChiAroma’s are made by Buckley and Philips who are based in Victoria.
What's the best way to inflate my ChiBall?

Inflating your ChiBall™ for the first time:
1. Remove the plug from your ChiBall™.
2. Hold your ChiBall™ against a hard surface and insert the inflator tube.
3. Do NOT over inflate. Blow into the inflator tube until your ChiBall™ attains desired firmness. (If you don’t have an inflator tube, you can simply blow directly into your ChiBall™’s valve or use a drinking straw.)
4. Quickly remove the inflator tube and pinch the plug hole with your fingers to prevent the air from escaping, and insert the plug into the hole.

To re-inflate, simply remove the plug, balance the ChiBall™ in the palm of your hand and allow the external air to draw back into the ChiBall™.

Do not over inflate the ChiBall with a mechanical pump. The ball should be soft when correctly inflated and is not designed to be inflated under pressure. The ChiBall is not meant to be fully inflated and it should be soft enough that when holding it, your hand can place enough pressure on it to allow you to practice your grip and engage the muscles in your hand.

After repeated use, your ChiBall™ will no longer need the inflator tube. For some ChiBall™ exercises it may be necessary to reduce the size of your ChiBall™. 

Why are there 10 ChiBall Colours
Each Chiball is tied to an energy phase from the yin yang energy cycle and represents one of the five elements – Wood, Fire, Earth, Metal and Water. Each of the elements has yin and yang associations and each of the ten ChiBalls represent the yin or yang of each of the five elements.

What region are your DVDs suitable for?

 

The Original 6 DVDs created by Monica between 2006 and 2008 (Energise and Tone, Release and Relax, Awaken Your Spine, Posture and Flexibility, Dance of the Dragon and The Power of Relaxation) were produced in PAL format.  This format is suitable for use in Australia and Europe or an any PC/Mac.  If you are based in North America you will need an NTSC version of the DVD.   In 2009 a new format became available which allows the DVDs to be dual formatted in NTSC and PAL.  As such all other DVDs produced after this date will play on any DVD player.  All our videos are also available for download in MP4 format.
