2. The fitness ball stimulates the second and third metacarpal bones of the palm, which is beneficial to regulating the function of the central nervous system, achieving the effects of calming the mind, invigorating the brain and improving intelligence, thereby enhancing the physiological functions of one's own internal organs and exerting the physiological effect of "movement keeps you healthy".

3. It is an indisputable fact that hand exercises are good for the brain. When playing with a fitness ball, one can focus his mind on his hands, eliminate all kinds of distracting thoughts, eliminate tension, and relax the brain. When playing with the fitness ball, the ball rotates regularly and makes a soft sound, just like pleasant "music", which will undoubtedly balance the excitement and inhibition of the brain nerves and achieve a proper relaxation.
