3 tips for buying a foam roller
Foam rollers come in various styles: smooth or ribbed, and with different levels of firmness. If you're new to using a foam roller, it's best to start with a smooth and soft one, allowing you to ease into it without causing pain.
A frequent mistake is choosing a roller that's too firm, resulting in discomfort and discouraging continued use. As you become more comfortable with the roller, you can progress to firmer options, either smooth or ribbed.

A ribbed foam roller, also known as a trigger roller, offers a more intense massage and is effective at targeting knots. It's a suitable option for individuals seeking advanced trigger point therapy to help alleviate stiff muscles.
Besides firmness and ribbing, think about the size of the foam roller you require and whether you need one that offers a deeper massage than a standard roller.
- A longer foam roller, around 50-60 centimetres, is ideal for treating larger muscle groups, like your back.
- A small foam roller is convenient for travel or taking to the gym, and it's also great for addressing smaller muscle groups.
- A battery-powered foam roller with a vibration mode brings an extra-effective massage experience, as the vibrations boost your blood circulation too.
