Review: Good massage if you're careful. - I use this roller for my back. It accommodates the spine nicely, having no ridges in the center. On the floor, I roll from my low back to the top of my shoulders. Carefully but with full weight, feet on the carpet, using my legs to push my body up and back with the roller traveling from lower to upper back and returning. I keep my spine in the center of the roller. I gives me a very nice back massage. With full weight overtop this roller, it gives a pretty deep massage. So I'm careful to start with speedier passes for a gentler intro. Then I transition to slower passes that go deeper. If I'm careful, it seems healthful. If haphazard, it has made me sore. UPDATE: after using this around a year, I've gotten used to it and grown to like it more and more. The "Y" shaped ridges really work on your back, they knead the muscles well. The design keeps ridges away from the spine, unlike many other roller designs. I upgraded my rating from 4 stars to 5 stars. It is the best roller I've found for my back. Review: Doesn't do miracles but does help lower back pain due to arthritis and sitting in a chair all day - I have lower back pain, related to arthritis and sitting in a chair working at the computer all day. I saw this roller, and thought it might be useful, though was a little skeptical since these things often don't actually work. I've had it for a month now, and it does help my back. I use it twice a day for a few minutes each time, rolling on it up and down my lower back, putting as much weight from my back on it as I can. It doesn't entirely remove the stiffness and pain, but probably reduces it about 50%. If I used it more, it might do more. One downside is the instructions are limited so you have to play around with it to figure out how to use it with your own particular problem. That takes some time. It does seem durable and hasn't noticeably degrade from having my weight on it over the month. I definitely would buy it again. And I was not paid by the company to review the product, I paid full price for the product. ## Features - FIRM SURFACE FOR AGGRESSIVE MASSAGE: Thin outer layer of foam provides a firm, high-density surface, perfect for deep tissue massage.

I looked for a cheaper version for a long time and finally gave up. Definitely over priced but I couldn’t find anything cheaper. As for the use, it is surprisingly uncomfortable and harder to roll up and down on your back then you might think. You need a surface that your feet can really grip on so carpet does not work. As a medical doctor, I believe his theory has some merit and I’m willing to try it. He is correct that all the bodies connective tissue is connected and they just don’t teach that in medical school the way he presents it. And it is certainly true that you can develop contractures and tight spots/trigger points in muscles and joints. Currently I have no disc problems but just arthritis in the posterior elements of the spine. My only pain now is in one SI joint, and I’m really hoping this will help because I have to wear a back brace to get through the day. My other comments are about the ball exercises so I will put them under my lacrosse ball purchase. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.gr/products/1441453-pro-tec-athletics-foam-roller-deep-tissue-massage-roller-recovery](https://www.desertcart.gr/products/1441453-pro-tec-athletics-foam-roller-deep-tissue-massage-roller-recovery) --- *Product available on Desertcart Greece* *Store origin: GR* *Last updated: 2026-04-23*
