College sport team coach required that The Stick be purchased for our college athlete son. I saw a variety on the market by this same brand and worried over what made the prices different. This is actually fanatastic and it is one of the lower priced ones. As you use it, the white things and the whole stick bends a bit. So you can use this on your neck, it wraps around a curve. It kills on the legs and it does get the knots out and works out soreness after a workout. I used it for a few weeks before my son went off to college and it's a good deal. Rating 5 stars = Love It. NOTE: When shopping for THE STICK note the sizes and lengths, buy what you need, the price goes up depending on length which makes good common sense. You may not need a giant one, the travel one has been all we need even though it is used at home and at college in the dorm.

UPDATE: Comparing to Gaiam similar product, the Gaiam has different texture rollers but the center stick does not bend or flex at all. The texture is painful at time to use and I miss the flex of it compared to THE STICK. These more flat rollers for THE STICK work just fine, the texture is not necessary.

Legs that feel like new!

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on August 1, 2012

My trainer used the stick on my legs and I found it so beneficial that I bought one for my husband and myself to use at home. It's easy to use and highly effective! I had worked my legs without regard to irritating the IT band with overuse and my new trainer, who is all about getting muscle groups to work together, noticed how tight my IT bands were. He used a large foam-style roller at first and then moved to The Stick.

I saw how easy it was to use both the foam roller and The Stick and bought both - however The Stick remains my most used and favorite of the two. After just one week of daily use of The Stick my legs are much more flexible and there is no more IT band stiffness.

Use on the IT band: I begin by applying gentle pressure just above the knee and move on top of the IT band, continuing in an upward rolling gentle pressure until I reach the hip. I've learned to 'feel' the IT band's movement under The Stick and keep just enough pressure to stretch out the IT band including the nasty knot that formed about 6 inches on the band above the knee. It's tricky, but if you keep just enough pressure on the knot you can get it to 'give' as you stretch out the IT band. Look here for information on the IT band: [...]

The Stick has worked so well that I am doing dead lifts with no residual stiffness or pain. I do The Stick after every dead lift session. It feels great! This short stick works best for me on the outer portion of the lower leg, calf, and of course the IT band. It's amazing - my legs feel like new!

My husband and I also use it on each other for areas such as the back of the arm and back of the leg.

So much pain relief!!!

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on February 7, 2021

Verified Purchase

Bought this after my physical therapist used it during a session. Works better than a foam roller or lacrosse ball on the big thick muscles of the legs. It’s worth the extra cost compared to the cheaper ones available because of the flexible center core which really allows you to get into the muscle. A difference I wasn’t aware of until my physical therapist point it out. That small 1” flex/bendability really allows you to follow the curve of your muscles to get all those tight hidden knots. Don’t be fooled by the imitations, I’ve used both and this is legions better. I use it several times a day. I leave on my bed because I get leg cramps at night and this helps to calm the muscle down. I’m considering buying another one for the office because I walk a lot at work and it would be great to take a few minutes during the day to relieve the tightness. I have been using it for about two weeks now and have seen a huge difference in my pain level. Also having less leg cramps at night, so this is a life saver.

Without a massage therapist close by this Stick is a great support when my legs are sore and tired. I also like it on my arms when needed.

plantar fascitis

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on June 24, 2011

Verified Purchase

first of all i want to say that i ordered this yesterday, and by the time i got out of work today it was on my doorstep! From nj to ohio in one day tells me a lot about this seller, so immediately i was impressed. Now on to the meat and potatoes. I suffer from a severe case of plantar fascitis in both feet....its so bad that from feb to may of this year i was on crutches and im still experiencing quite a bit of pain. Needless to say my recovery is very slow. Part of the reason for me still having problems is the fact that all the doctors that i have seen just want to feed me pills and tell me to rest. Later after a lot of reading i discovered that the majority of the pain in my foot is actually coming from my calves and shins. The remedy? Myofascial relief of trigger points. So far i have been making good use of a foam roller and a tennis ball, and i made very good strides almost immediately. After a bit though i was having difficulty getting deep enough of a massage for it to work as well. And that is when i decided to purchase The Stick.
So here is my initial reaction to The Stick:

Quality: very simple design, all plastic, but feels very sturdy. Has a really nice solid feel to it with a little bit of weight.

Effectiveness: definitely as advertizes for my calves and thighs. It is much easier to use The Stick on my lower body than a foam roller or a tennis ball. As for upper body, i think its more practical to use a tennis ball and a wall, you get a deeper massage and can pin point a trigger point much better.

Overall a very solid product. I would definitely reccomend The Stick for anyone suffering from something similar to what i am going through, or for just about any active person who takes their recover seriously.

Highly recommend. Easy and enjoyable to use, very effective, get results in minimum amount of time and with little effort. I suffer from tight calves which resulted me in getting the very painful condition plantar fasciitis. This simple tool helps to massage out any tight knots in my calves but it can be used more or less all over the body. Your in control so can adjust the required pressure. Its sturdy and well made. So pleased l bought this.

Left me amazed...genuinely

Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on July 18, 2014

Verified Purchase

I'm not sure how many people say this but I genuinely never write reviews! But this is sooo worth writing a review for because if it can help me, it can help anyone!

I initially bought the travel stick for DOMS (delayed onset muscle soreness) as I'd seen plenty of great reviews on YouTube, so that was a given. But where it really came into its own for me is for it's trigger pointing properties.
I'm an ultra runner and though I now stretch regularly, when I was a kid I thought stretching was a waste of time. So surprise, surprise I had an unhealthy amount of scar tissue in my calves, particularly the left one.
When I first tried the stick on my left calf it was agonising, but after 3 weeks of using it daily (about 2 or 3 times a day for 5 mins - schedule it in during advert breaks) I have no pain in my calf!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Genuinely amazed!!

My favourite technique is putting the stick on the carpet and then resting my calf on top and rolling myself over it (only try this after a few days, it hurts more!)

The only downside is I bought the travel stick, which as a plus is really portable, but makes rolling your upper back quite difficult without someone else to help.
The original stick is quite a bit longer and therefore you can do it by yourself!

Anyway, I hope this review helps someone! And remember if you're unsure, it still costs less than one physio session! (And I've paid literally thousands to crappy physios!!!)

Regards
Scott

Wow. I'm normally a sceptic but this is brilliant. For months, during and after running, I've suffered from knee and hip pain due to tight IT bands. I seen a sports physiotherapist, been religiously stretching and using a foam roller with some success but never was 100% right. I bought The Stick purely on the reviews here as I was getting very frustrated. It arrived in perfect time, I met the postman at the front door delivering it just as I arrived home from a long run and so was able to incorporate some Stick time in with my usual post run stretches. The effect was instant, for the first time in months I wasn't hobbling and stiff after a run, my muscles and joints felt refreshed. Incredibly simple to use, instructions are included but only take seconds to read. Wish I'd found this months ago. Only down side is it is a little pricey but when you consider it costs less than a single physio session it's actually a long term bargain.

Everyone who does any kind of training should own a stick. This size is easy to bring with you as it fits in a bagpack. The stick goes very nice and deep on your muscles, and it doesn't hurt. Actually it sometimes tickles. Get someone to help you and it might hurt a but when you penetrate the muscle really deep. But the feeling afterwards is so nice.

Great Calf relief

Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on October 6, 2013

I have been using the stick for a couple of months now, and it has helped me reduce sore calfs after longer runs (10+ miles). The quality is excellent, and feels like it will last. Easy to use and there are plenty of videos on youtube if you want to perfect your technique. For the price it is well worth it.
