Of all the fitness accessory tools introduced over the last 20 years the foam roller is one of the most effective, inexpensive and versatile pieces or equipment. Foam rollers are used by athletes and fitness enthusiasts as a balance trainer, therapeutic massage roller, pilates core training and stabilization and for back care & massage. Chiropractors, physical therapists and athletic trainers use foam roller therapy for treatments and conditioning. The foam roll is an excellent aid for self massage of the upper and lower back, hip, ab & adductors, plus calf, hamstring, glute and quad muscles. The roller is especially popular and useful for IT (iliotibial) band syndrome. The secret to the foam rollers success is this: The user controls the amount of pressure at the point of massage by adjusting the amount of force (body weight) applied and the force is high enough to relieve the muscular tension.
Since full round foam rollers offer a significant balance challenge, we recommend foam roller balance training within a professionally supervised training session.

"Tiny bubbles- yes, that's what makes a great foam roller like our PE2 roller. The PE2 is produced with millions of microscopic bubbles uniformly spaced from the core to the outer edge of the roller. This consistency gives the roller the ability to slightly compress or what we call "deflect" at the surface then rebound to it's original shape. Our roller will "give" ever so slightly at a focused pressure point and rebound back to it's original shape immediately. The size and uniformity of the bubbles in our PE2 roller makes it more comfortable to workout on and more durable. It's easy to test a foam roller for deflection and rebound. Just press your thumb down hard on the foam roller for 5 seconds then release. The PE2 foam roller will rebound back to it's original shape within a second. Our rollers are also uniformly round with no flat spots and they're manufactured utilizing a precision extrusion process." - Hal Lier,Owner- Nefitco.com
Our new 18" PE2 foam roller offers more versatility than the 1' full round. It's long enough to accomodate many of the exercises performed with a full 36" roller. For example, the 1' full round is excellent for massage of quads, hamstrings, IT bands, etc. but the shorter length is not ideal for rolling across the back. The 18" roller is better suited for this exercise. The 18" long roller is easier to transport than the 36" long roller as well.
