Review: Small but incredibly effective (use with intention) - I am beyond obsessed with this foam roller. I’ve tried just about every roller out there, and once I got the RAD Helix, I honestly never looked back. It’s compact, high-density, and incredibly effective. Despite being smaller and travel-friendly, this roller packs a serious punch. I even travel with it because it works so well and doesn’t take up much space. It’s great for targeted muscle work and really getting into tight areas. Personal thought: This roller can feel very strong — even painful — if you’re not using it correctly or if you’re extremely tight. That’s not a flaw, but something to be aware of. When used with intention and control, it’s powerful in the best way and delivers real relief. If you want a foam roller that’s small, durable, and actually effective, this one is worth it.
Review: great tool for my SI - not for everyone, this is a pretty aggressive tool but it was perfect for ironing out my unhappy SI

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ great tool for my SI
*by K***B on May 26, 2025*

not for everyone, this is a pretty aggressive tool but it was perfect for ironing out my unhappy SI

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Offers more direct pressure over standard foam roller - great for upper back & shoulder blades
*by D***O on August 28, 2018*

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.
