RAD Helix

The central dip is specifically engineered to cradle your spine, ensuring that the pressure is applied to the muscles on either side of the vertebrae rather than directly on the bone. This allows you to safely target deep tissue tension without causing discomfort to your spinal column.

It is suitable for most users, though the firm polymer construction provides a more intense massage than standard soft foam rollers. If you are new to myofascial release, start by using it on a carpeted surface to slightly dampen the pressure before moving to a harder floor.

While the Helix is optimized for spinal release, the cone-shaped ends and ridged surface are also effective for targeting smaller muscle groups like the calves, hamstrings, or shoulders. However, its specialized shape makes it less ideal for broad, flat muscle groups like the quads or glutes compared to a traditional cylindrical roller.

Because the roller is made from a non-porous polymer, it is fully waterproof and sweat-proof. You can easily wipe it down with a damp cloth and mild soap or a disinfectant wipe after each use to keep it hygienic.

The ridges are designed to create waves of pressure as you roll, which helps stimulate blood flow and assist in flushing out metabolic waste from tight muscles. This provides a more targeted, kneading sensation than a smooth roller, which typically offers a broader, more uniform pressure.
