Whether you’re at the gym, at home, or on the go, a muscle-rolling massage stick can be your best friend—even when you’re using it to put the hurt (so good) on your muscles!
If you’ve read our article on foam massage rollers, then you know that massaging your muscles can be very beneficial to your health by preventing injury, releasing stress, and relieving pain. But what’s the difference between a muscle roller and a massage stick?
Muscle rollers use body weight, while massage sticks use the pressure you apply with your hands and upper body. Another important difference is that massage sticks are notably more portable than muscle rollers.
So if you’re interested in portability, as well as pain relief and prevention, check out our top picks for muscle-rolling massage sticks!
