- A muscle roller stick like the one from Doeplex can be a great way to help relieve muscle knots and sore muscles almost anywhere on your body. Purchase the Doeplex muscle roller stick here: amzn.to/2Mz4dZA (affiliate link)
The Doeplex muscle roller stick is very sturdy, and its independently spinning rollers are great for getting deep down into the muscles to provide targeted pain relief.
Roller sticks are very useful when rolling out muscles because you can use them almost anywhere, and you can control the pressure on the muscles. They can be used on larger muscle groups like the quads, calves, and lower back. You can also use them on smaller muscle groups like the anterior tibilias, wrist extensor and flexor muscles, as well as neck muscles.
Muscle roller sticks are also great for trigger points. Trigger points are basically knots in the muscles that are very tender to press on. They can also have referred pain to other areas of the body. Using a roller stick to relieve trigger points and sore muscles can be a great way to get pain relief.

Incredible info, my roller arrived today, the last 2 months had left knee pain, it was becoming embarrassing, I'm nearly 60 years old from afro Caribbean descent, using the roller today, upwards to the heart, cannot believe the knee pain i had has subsided, will be using it for 10 - 2 - 15 minutes daily, incredible equipment and incredible video, thanks.
Thanks, and you're welcome. Glad it's helping.
Thank you so much for this great video.
You're welcome.
So glad I found this video! I am a wheelchair and my thigh muscles are super tight so besides physical therapy, I bought a stick similar to yours. I hope it helps. 🤞🏼🤞🏼
I hope it helps too.
It works!!! Buy it you will not regret it. I do her video and it works for my knee.
Thank you for this. I have a foam roller but I feel secure holding myself up while using it. I’ll go with this
You're welcome.
Great Video 💪🏽
Thanks!
Thank you for this informative video!
I'm thinking of investing a fascia roller for my back. Thank you!

Thank you so much for helpful video
You're welcome.
Thanks for the cool info
You're welcome.
Wow 😮 this is so cool 😎 thank you 🙏 For this video
You're welcome :-)
This thing is a necessity for skateboarders. It hurts when you use it but then the tension goes away after use. Really effective to use in between gym days on a split, or before and after a skate session.
Just thought about getting one for this
I ordered this..and how many times a week and how long, how many minutes, thank you very much😊
Thanks Doctor Jo. I just ordered this muscle roller stick. Wisconsin was hit with a foot of snow ❄️ today. After 3 hours of plowing, I know I’m going to have sore muscles. :-)
Not that I’m looking for sympathy, lol
You're welcome. I think you will really like it. Wow! Yes, you might be happy to have it after all that :-)
AskDoctorJo I have used the muscle roller stick and I really like it. Thanks.

You're welcome.
Can Rolling pin use for back thigh knots
You are awesome! Thank you!
Thank you, and you're welcome!
Can I use this for lymphatic drainage
Is there any risk in putting in too much effort? Like arteries and veins?
Thank you .👏
You're welcome.
Do these help with shin splints
Do you have to press down when you do it? :(
Excelent
You recommended a vibrating massage ball which I purchased and I like a lot. What is the difference? The roller looks like it would feel great. Would having both be redundant?
The massage ball is great for specific trigger points, but I like the roller for general muscle soreness, and maybe more than one trigger point since it allows you to move the stick a little more freely and it's not quite as much specific pressure. I like both, and don't think they would be redundant :-) Good luck.
What do you think about the Tiger Tail? Thrift store special, lol. I'm trying it out tonight.
They all are pretty similar. I hope it helps!
@@AskDoctorJo thanks!
Any good roller for lower back n glutes.
Probably be better off with a good foam roller for those
Looks better and more user friendly than the foam rollers.
I agree!
How long do I roll on my thigh to get rid of knots.
Did you ever find out?
2 hours a day for a year
How do you know if the muscle stick is working? Does the pain go down/away immediately after use?
I excercise a lot.
I've been dealing with a calf ache for over a week.
I used a massage stick, rolled slowly, and firm, over the achy spot.
It hurt like a sunuva gun!
I used the stick daily, sometimes 2x a day.
It took 3-4 days and the ache went away, in my case.
I've used a massage stick other times and the aches went away in one day.
It promotes blood flow, they're effective.
Just don't think your going to rub the pain away in 30 seconds.
Hope this provided you with some clarity.
Dr. Jo, can I use the roller on my knees?
It's best used on the muscles, not the joints themselves, but it can be used on the muscles around the knees.
Can you use this on your pet?
I just used it on my dog she loves it
Used it on my cat, she hates it 😅
💎💎💎🏋♂️🙏🌟❤️
😮hi
It works!!! Buy it you will not regret it. I do her video and it works for my knee.
How long should you roll one muscle?
It really depends on what muscle and if it’s just for muscle soreness or an injury. In general, I would only start with 15-20 seconds and slowly progress from there if there is no increased pain to a few minutes.
