Chinese Healthy Balls (or Iron Baoding balls)
Chinese health balls date all the way back to the Ming Dynasty (1368-1644). The balls are used to activate pressure points in the hands, leading to a multitude of health benefits. Each health ball is hollow and have chiming sounding plates inside. The chiming creates vibrations that help to activate acupressure points and reduce stress. To learn more about the use of the Chinese health balls and some of the history, you can visit the following pages: Chinese Health Balls and How To Use Baoding Iron Balls.
I don't pretend to be an expert in feng shui. The following is information gathered from various sources, people who should know, but... However, we do have some very good feng shui information on our learn stuff pages for those that would like to learn more, and decide for themselves.
The Sun & Moon Used in Feng Shui ~
The Half Moon & Sun is a symbol of balance and completion, much like the yin yang symbol. It is said to be a very strong tool that gives energy to the space. The space that you place these symbols will assist you in completing or finishing cycles in your life.
Metal Element In Feng Shui ~
The Chinese iron baoding balls are metal. In feng shui, the element of metal relates to success, money, and power, even destruction and transformation. The Metal element is represented by the colors of gold, silver, white, or anything made of metal. To enhance your success sector, place something made of metal in the South, hopefully pleasing to the eye like our sun & moon iron balls.
Cloisonne is an enamelware art form. Basically, the design is laid down in thin metal and the hollows are carefully filled with layers of colorful enamel. The pieces are then fired, buffed, filled again, re fired, buffed, etc., until the piece is complete.

Health Ball Details:
These cloisonne health balls come in the Sun & Moon design, a red sun on one ball and a pale pink half moon on the other. Sometimes, colors may vary. If this is important, feel free to email us to ask what is available. Base colors may vary from deep blue, black or green. The individual balls measure approximately 1 1/2" in diameter.
Each set of Chinese exercise balls comes with 2 balls. Inside each ball is a chiming plate. Each set has a ball with a high tone and a ball with a low tone. They say the chiming is a Sun & Moon thing and part of how the balls have such a relaxing effect on people. You can read more about that here.
Each set of Chinese Sun and Moon health balls comes in a silk brocade box. Each therapy ball box comes in assorted colors, usually red, green, black, or blue. Each set of chiming therapy balls comes with basic instructions for use and brief history of the Chinese Iron Direction Baoding Balls.
As you rotate the iron balls in your hand, the vibrations stimulate the various acupressure points of the hand, enhancing the flow of energy, or chi, throughout the entire body. We have sold many sets to people that use them for relaxation and stress relief, arthritis, and carpal tunnel syndrome.
As always, check with your physician or practitioner before starting any new kind of therapy. Some things can aggravate, rather than help :)
