Aiming to achieve symmetry between both halves of our body is essential for keeping our body balanced and injury-free. It's good to practice symmetrical movements both during exercise and as we move throughout the day.

Parkinson’s disease is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder that can cause tremors in the hands, limb rigidity, motor issues and cognitive challenges, all of which can make exercising very challenging. With the Gravity Ball’s unique system, it makes using weights possible for people with Parkinson’s disease. The Gravity Ball’s adjustable, high strength Velcro straps secure to your hands or feet during exercise allowing you to use weight without having to grip on the weight.
We are passionate about empowering people to achieve life long health through the practice of consistent resistance exercise. Gravity Ball Health Systems was founded by physician and entrepreneur, Dr. Mark Chavez who invented the Gravity Ball™ and The Gravity Ball Method™ of Grip-Free Resistance Exercise™.
