Have seen a product called The "MASSAGE ROLLER" discounted at WINNERS http://www.gofit.net/massage-roller.php
***** HAS ANYONE TRIED IT??? ******
imagine it must be similar to something called "The STICK"... when I was injured a few weeks ago and Stolly suggested a Rolling Pin (like you use for baking) I tried that but found it didn't have much effect...
since then I have started using a Foam Roller >daily< which I'm finding is good (i think)
as in it's very very good when I STOP ...but excruciatingly painful when I'm doing it ...hopefully becoming less painful over time
and making my muscles work better
FWIW, you can get a pretty good reflexology massage with some other items you may have around the house
especially a golf ball under the foot; a tennis ball under the glutes, ITB, shoulders/pecs; or a glass bottle (sideways) under arches
