The Original Body Roller - High Density Foam Roller Massager for Deep Tissue Massage of The Back and Leg Muscles - Self Myofascial Release of Painful Trigger Point Muscle Adhesions - 13" Turquoise

Sometimes foam rollers can feel a little like Goldilocks looking for a place to sleep...too soft (and they fall apart), too firm (and they hurt more than they help) and then there's the one that is just right (like this one). This foam roller is firm and well made, the grooves really get in there to loosen up knots and massage nagging aches and pains and can be used in various applications. I haven't traveled with it, but it will fit in a carry on suitcase if you need to bring it with you. I use it a few times a week as part of a mobility routine to supplement my weight lifting program. Highly recommend.

This is the same roller as my gym uses, its an excellent firm roller designed to get into the muscles, highly recommended.

This is a longer and more personal review than I would normally write, but I think the info could be helpful to other people trying to decide if it's worth trying a foam roller.I got this as a sort of hail mary after months of nerve pain with no explanation from doctors. I finally turned to acupuncture and was able to manage the pain but still didn't know what was causing it. The acupuncturist thought it could be muscle tightness and suggested a foam roller. Seemed unfathomable that simple muscle tightness could cause this intense pain, and equally unfathomable that a piece of foam could fix it. But she reduced my pain significantly by poking me with needles, so I was willing to try anything she suggested.I started with my back. It was mildly painful but like a deep-tissue massage, not like an injury. The third time I used this for my back I felt a big pop and was worried for a second, but my back actually felt better after that so I think it just put something back where it should have been.Rolling my legs, which is where I have the most nerve pain, is kind of torturous in that same deep-tissue way, but way less tolerable/more intense. So I only do a few rolls on my legs at a time, but I notice when I roll the nerve pain intensifies for a moment, then gets way better. I've only been using this for a few days but have already noticed a further reduction in nerve pain on top of what the acupuncture did. It's not been long enough to say definitively, but at this point it does seem to be helping.I'm not saying this cures all nerve pain but I do think for me, a person who has been much less active since covid, it is helping to stretch out tense muscles that may be causing or contributing to my pain. I'm so convinced that I also plan to order the "peanut" shaped roller for my neck, which I have had problems with for years from whiplash.If you are in the position of being less active in lockdown/distancing times and noticing pain/stiffness I think it's worth trying this. I will say that it's not very long which is fine for a smaller person but you may want to measure the width of your back to make sure this will provide adequate cover for you. I think this could also be a good tool for people unable to get massages right now; not as good as an actual massage but better than nothing.

The quality is average, and the color is bright and fun. It is pretty firm and sort of aggressive in texture somewhat. It allows for great stretching, adding space in the back. Some of the hurt is a good hurt, but sensitive skin might need to put a towel over it first. My husband did bruise from use. I prefer it more firm than floppy but maybe if a little more squish was added into it, it would be just the right material.
