WHAT AFFECTS HOW INTENSE IT FEELS?
Contact surface size: Smaller contact area = deeper, more intense sensation. Larger surface = more even, diffused pressure. This explains why tools of the same firmness can feel different.
The surface you're working on: The sensation is softer on a soft carpet, firmer on the floor. If something feels too intense, try it on a carpet.
Muscle tension: Even a softer tool can feel intense on particularly tight muscles. That's okay—it indicates that area needs the work.

With massage bars, you roll on the muscles with your own force - whereas with massage rollers, you roll on the muscles underneath and use your body weight to control the intensity. Consequently, the massage bar has at least three advantages: it's easier to relax while you're doing the treatment; it's easier to apply the force more precisely; and you can take it anywhere and use it anywhere, without lying on the floor.
Rod is designed to be combined with several RAD devices. Running these tools through the Axle or Helix effectively gives you a handle, and placing them in the Atom gives you an ideal tool for twisting tissue. You'll find plenty of examples of all of these in our mobile app.
The plastic massage bars will bend (and may break over time), so the force and precision exerted is lost. The Rod is designed to give you enough force to work large muscles, but also for more delicate, precise massage, which is useful for neck treatment, for example (goodbye tension headaches!). In addition to all this, you can also use the rounded ends of the Rod and Rod mini for point massage.
So-called lifetime guarantee. This means precisely that we provide a continuous guarantee for the products for as long as the production of the product is not stopped. This only applies to manufacturing defects. So if you have a RAD Roller that breaks after, say, 3 years, you let us know and if the break is due to a manufacturing defect, we'll send you a new Roller.
- Severe osteoporosis. (If you have mild osteoporosis, consult your doctor.)
- Breakage.
- Cancer.
- Around open wounds.
- On parts of the body with oedema and haematoma.
- If you are pregnant, consult your doctor or physiotherapist.
It depends on what the problem is. If you have cancer, you should not use them. If you just have a cold, feel free. If you are unsure, consult your doctor or ask our physiotherapist for advice.
Preferably every day. The effect of manual therapy is permanent if it is used regularly. Experimental results have shown that at least 2 weeks of therapy is recommended for long-term results.
5-10 deep breaths are enough for each position.
You will feel a slight pain during the treatment. A little more severe pain in the worse resections and sensitive nodules (trigger points). However, it is important to remember that it is not good if it hurts too much. If you trigger too much pain, your body's defence mechanism kicks in and you involuntarily contract your muscles, which is exactly the opposite of your goal (to relax your muscles).

Right after the treatment. In some cases, the change in mobility and flexibility will be very spectacular. Any pain you may be experiencing will also be reduced almost immediately. However, the effects of a single treatment wear off relatively quickly. Long-term change can be achieved through regular use.
You don't have to, but if you want to permanently increase your range of motion, it's a good idea to do mobilisation exercises to lock in your newly acquired range of motion.

A TOOL FOR A SMOOTH, CONTROLLED MASSAGE.
This thin myofascial device beats concurrency when it comes to well-controlled muscle management. The thoughtful design, steel core and high quality materials deliver what they promise.
Combinability
Use it for your usual rolling, or up the ante by inserting one end of the Rod into the center hole of the RAD Atom to create a self-directed, crowbar-style shearing tool that pulls muscles open. Plus, by inserting the Rod through the RAD Helix or RAD Axle, you get a massage roller with handles, making it easy to massage others as well.

gentle touch
Just because the RAD Rod is made of durable steel doesn't mean it can't be sensitive. The entire surface of each Rod is covered with soft EVA foam. The well-designed density of the EVA foam allows you to Rod in bony, sensitive areas like the shin and forearm. Tough but sensitive. Winning combination.

IDEAL FOR THE LOWER BODY, FOR WARMING UP, FOR RELAXATION
Thanks to the soft EVA cover on the steel core, RAD Rod is pleasant to use but extremely effective. Take the benefits of the SMR with you wherever you go, because you don't have to lie on the ground to use it. Ideal before and after running, cycling or lower limb workouts.
