Spotted someone's status update the other day. Something along the lines of Foam Rollers being a special kind of torture.
Well, dug mine out today, as I pulled my calf.
OMFG! It is a special kind of torture! Such a tight spot in my calf, it is soooo sore rolling over this thing.
I think I need to find a BDSM Domme to make this kind of pain worth it!
Any tips for foam rolling?

"I have the sticky rollers for gettimg fluff off clothes, will that work 
Oh yeah! Just when I thought it couldn't get any more painful, just rip the hairs off my legs while you're at it.
 "
Ah fantastic torturous idea, I was going to go over clothes, naked it is then |

Yes. Got one a while back. Physio had recommended it as part of rehab for my son's knee pain.
Good for tendon and muscle pain, and general prevention. |

I have both a soft foam roller and the harder one with knobly bits and I tend to just endure it. I recently got a massage gun though whi h perfectly replaces the foam roller and possibly my sports massage sessions saving me a ton. |

Sorry to have changed tack from the slightly more sexy comments - thinking about getting one myself. Good to hear they work, cheera |

"The thighs are the most satisfying, that really hurts
My chest is fine, before you get any more ideas! 
And the lower back around your waist area makes you squirm a bit "
Oooh! I bet you'd have me squirming alright!  |

"I love my foam roller and the grateful pain it brings.
I also have a massage gun which is powerful and brings next level incredible pain! "
What in the world is a massage gun?! |

"I'm staring at the foam roller and the massage gun and I already know which one I'm going to pick "
Some have made their own from parts off Ebay fraction of cost and just as good , the pain of them is hard to take , I mix it up with a freeze treatment less pain |

I'd hardly call them painful though, I decided to get one when two sports massage therapists I visited used them on me instead of their hands which I thought was downright lazy of them.
My quads seize up after a run and they help immensely |

Foam roller is a bit meh, doesn't get to the hard to reach bits. Good for quads and that's about it.
Hockey ball is where the real pain is, it's amazing.
Also have a massage gun which helps with generally keeping things nice and loose and helps recovery.
Still not as good as a proper sports massage though. |

"It's ouchy god help me on my IT bands. Unfortunately what I need"
If you already have the ITB syndrome then rolling it isn't usually the best solution. There's a tretch you do where you lay on the floor with your knees bent at a 90 degree angle, crossed St the knee and pushing against the wall that helps.
I basically stretches the band at the glute where it originates |

The roller is the advice I've been given and it's helping, but thank you. |
