Trigger Point Performance Mb2 Double Massage Ball Roller For Back And Neck Relief

Had this for a few years now and it has become an indispensable little tool for all kinds of back and neck aches and pains. Clever design and durable.

This product really helped alleviate my back pain.

Years ago I managed to sprain my mid-back, and in hindsight, I don't think I did nearly enough at the time to address the injury. Ever since, I've been prone to back pain, especially around my mid-back area, and especially after periods of prolonged sitting, such as during air travel.I've found myself sitting more recently, due to work and travel, and so have been trying to take steps to prevent and manage any potential back pain. Really just simple, basic things like making sure I've got good lumbar support and proper posture.I decided to try this roller out, and am very glad I did. It's not a silver bullet, but I find that if I roll out my mid-back regularly, especially before and after a flight, back pain or discomfort is kept to a minimum, and sometimes it's non-existent. This roller seems to be just firm enough to really dig into the muscles and work out any knots and areas of tension.I find it most effective when I place it on a hard floor, and lie down on top of it (stomach facing the ceiling) and slowly roll forwards and backwards on it. I tried using this while upright against a wall, but found that I couldn't easily generate enough pressure by pushing myself back onto it. Better when I can lie on it and apply my full body weight. Perhaps a firmer roller would allow you to more effectively use this while still seated.I've noticed that after just a few weeks of usage, it has started to feel slightly lumpy and uneven, which makes me wonder about the durability of this roller. But for now, it works, and it's been a huge help.

I use this a lot for my shoulder & back pain. I love how you can adjust the width. It has been very helpful.

Overall, works good to release back stiffness, but cold be improved. The balls are on the soft side so if you use against a wall, in extended mode they will compress also bending the middle bar that then results in an uneven role to one side or the other. In the compressed option is even thought the ball ends a little uneven. Also, leaves marks on the wall which can be wiped off.
