Questions & Answers

Can you tell me where this is ?

I have no idea. It is the best roller I have ever used for my IT band &amp knees Laying flat on your back / PT for your rotator cuff. We also have the extra soft, which we prefer.

It has a lovely soft density roller (PSFR36B), but I've been searching for a travel version with a 12 inch diameter. Would you be able to direct me to a soft roller that measures 12 inches?

I am not aware that they make a 12" There is one that is 18" in length.

Would it be possible to purchase this unit in a 24" or 30" length? I think I may find it is exactly what I need to heal my rotator cuff injury. ?

This is the size of mine In addition, you can buy a model that measures 36" by 6". If you want the best OPTP experience - get it Not a rival's knock-off, but a roller It's "off". There can be a wide variety of durability, squishiness (soft, medium, hard) between manufacturers.

The pink roller is softer than the blue roller?

As for the blue roller, I don't have it. I only have the

A better roller than a firmer one

5/5

A medium-sized tape measure had been all I had I used a hard foam roller for a couple months (based on the recommendation of a physical therapist for pain in my knees) and it was so All my friends told me to hang in there, that it would get better, etc. It did not. As I continued to put myself through so much pain in order to get rid of pain, I began to wonder why I was doing it. No matter how hard I tried, I couldn't get A softer roller might be better than a hard one. I really like this one It does not cause pain to use In any case, the purchase has been a good one for me. frankly, it really doesn't seem like foam rolling with either a hard or soft roller is going to resolve my primary issue. In my opinion, the only way to deal with the pain is to take a break from the activity. However, in the meantime, I feel as though I'm rolling on a soft log instead of a hard one.

For beginners, this is the perfect kind of quality and density

5/5

The gel is effective in relieving back pain and stiff neck. I bought this roller so that I can stretch the spine daily. My back and neck hurt less from the stiffness and pain from the roller. In my experience as a beginner to rolling, this density is just right, it is not too soft or too hard, it is just the right amount to avoid bruising and discomfort when one is new to this, yet it is durable enough to last for years while still maintaining I am willing to pay a bit more for this brand, even though I believe the quality is worth it.

Ask your physical therapist for one if they recommend it

5/5

It's up to you. I find that it is very useful. In addition to recommending that I use an 18" Soft OPTP Foam Roller, my PT also advised me to start a serious stretching program. I was shown how to operate it by him. My connective tissues really received a workout from him after several stretches he showed me. Several of them hurt like deep tissue or sports massages. Laughter filled his face as he said "Yes, that is exactly right. ". In addition, you will not have to pay $45-$50 I will charge you $60 per hour if you enjoy it. The thing is, I've reached the age of 54 and cannot stretch like an 18 year old. Due to an injury program I was on, it helped me rest up for a month. This way, I could work my way back into shape after missing a month of training. It was some of the best money I've ever spent to see a physical therapist and get a foam roller.

I love that it works

5/5

This roller is way more comfortable to use than the hard roller I was using prior to it. The roller is soft and I love it. As long as I use it to stretch on, there is no pain.

Shin splints benefit greatly from this product! As a result of my sister's suggestion, I bought this foam roller to ease the pain from shin splints after I run or play After running and before, I've been using it and it works wonderfully! My shin muscles are massaged while I run so that I am not too tight for running, and when I get back from running I am less stiff

5/5

I also find my calf muscles respond well to it. For upper back or other muscle areas, I think this foam roller may be too soft.

The kind of foam roller that I am going to It was recommended to me by my physical therapist that I use foam rollers

5/5

My local hardware store sold me a standard (hard) one for a reasonable price. It has been used I was in a lot of pain. I've heard about softer ones, but my roller, though it says medium, is both soft enough not to cause excruciating pain and hard enough to do what it's supposed to (untwisting my IT band in my case). The way they are now should be the way they will always be. Those with a hard time are devil's work!.

For muscles that are tight and spasms! It is soft and extremely effective! Patients who suffer from fibromyalgia will love this product! It's great to have this roller around! It was used for the first time in PT when the teacher asked what the name of it was

5/5

Due to my fibromyalgia, the hardness of the roller against the opposing leg was too much for me. Initially, they had me use one that was stronger, but since I have fibromyalgia, I couldn't stand it. This was brought out by another therapist after I spoke with her. The world is a wonderful place! Using the foam roller to reduce or eliminate tight muscles and spasms throughout my body has proven to be more effective and less painful. It does not adversely influence the density and effectiveness of the inner material, despite the softer roll. Does exactly what it's supposed to! People who suffer from fibromyalgia should absolutely check this out!.

This massager is great for the back

5/5

A lot of times, my mid/high back aches, so I bought the massage stick to relieve the pain. Place it between my back and the wall as I stand up against a Apparently, squatting and standing make my back feel better instantly after a few repetitions. This one is not squishy soft, but is softer and does not feel like I am rolling on hard plastic. I've tried a couple of other brands and they were too hard. There is just the right amount of firmness for what I require. It is also the perfect size. I try to use it every night before I go to bed, since I can instantly tell what is happening.
