    Ideally looking for a stability disc in a bricks & mortar store in Dublin to help with rehab - I think a genuine BOSU ball is quite expensive.

    Also interested to hear any experiences of using these for rehab and beyond - seems to be conflicting evidence of how useful they are (particularly post-rehab).

    Not a bricks and mortar shop per say but somewhere you can actually visit

    Your right they aren't cheap but for proprioceptive work they can be very useful. Have had great success with this sort of work in injury rehablitation with clients.

    Cheers - is the price difference between the BOSU + the unbranded stability discs justified or are you essentially paying for the name?

    In terms of them stability disks in the region of 30-50 I don't really find them great in terms of life span however the wobble boards are a decent start but yes effectively with the BOSU, most of the price is in the name.
