RAD Helix I High Density Foam Myofascial Release Tool I Self Massage Mobility and Recovery Roller

this is a quality roller which is brilliantly designed.. personally i would characterize this as an intermediate/advanced level of roller since it does require some know-how and experience to use for your body type beyond what you read in the provided guide. i also love that it has a hole/void in its design whereby it can be fitted onto a thin pole for use as a sort of manual roller or tiger tailmy only gripes about it have to do with the size and weight, which were both quite a bit higher than i anticipated and thus not incredibly ideal for travel in my carry-on luggage (measures out at ~13.25oz/0.83lb in weight and ~12.25" in length).i get that a roller this size at just shy of a full pound is not exactly super hefty, but when it comes to minimalist traveling as my partner and i tend to do, every ounce counts

The quality seems good, I like the size of the roller as well as the contour to accommodate the spine (though this could be slightly narrower). The main complaint that I have is that the grooves (deep with sharp edges) leave significant marks on my back when I use this (wearing a shirt). It's like getting a bunch of oddly shaped hickeys on my back. I guess I'll be using it only while wearing a sweater or something. Seems like a poor design choice.

I am glad that I followed my chiropractor's advice and I ordered one of these for my upper back pain. Because of the gap in the center, the RAD roller offers more direct pressure along your spine without actually pressing down on your spine. Basically, it reaches your pressure points better than a foam roller.I have had upper back pain in between my shoulders for 2 years now and this is the only thing that has helped me relieve my own pain at home. It's definitely not meant for people who haven't foam rolled before. It can be very painful for some people, but for me it's the exact type of relief that I am looking for.It's great for the upper back in between your shoulder blades. It also provides relief on my lower back right above the hips. I am usually not as aggressive with it as I am with a foam roller. The RAD roller is made of hard rubber. I slowly creep over my pain spots and I even just hang out on it while I relax my neck and hands.I recommend this to everyone. I can't speak on how it works with the rod, but this one does not come with it.

I bought this from recommendation from Tim Ferris show . Fisrt i was skeptial thinking another BS product . One i staterd using it my pain gone for 4 hrs . Then do it gain angain pain goes away . try to do thre times a day you will see the resulty. Buing 2nd one to keep in car or in office .
