WHAT INFLUENCES THE INTENSITY OF THE SENSATION?
Size of the contact surface: Smaller contact surface = deeper, more intense sensation. Larger surface = more even, diffused pressure. This explains why tools of the same hardness can have different effects.
The surface you're working on: On a soft mat, the sensation is softer; on the floor, it's harder. If something feels too intense, try it on a mat.
Muscle tension: On particularly tense muscles, even a softer tool can feel powerful. This is not a problem — it indicates that work is needed there.

WHAT IS A COMPACT MASSAGE ROLLER?
We cut off the excess. Axle has everything you need and nothing you don't. Its design makes it ideal for rolling your back and big leg muscles. It may be half the length of a traditional roller, but it's twice as effective.
HOW DO I USE IT?
Simply place the Axle on the floor and lie on your back. Make short up and down rolling movements, then place the tool a bit lower or more up and repeat the same. You can even turn slightly to the side for a more intense effect on the same side. But even - especially at the beginning - it's enough to lie down and try to relax, while paying attention to your breathing. For more ideas and exercises, visit the American RAD Roller YouTube channel or download the RAD Mobility app.
WHICH TOOLS CAN I COMBINE IT WITH?
The tunnel through the centre of the Axle is designed to exactly match the diameter of the RAD Rod. By running the Rod through the Axle, you can treat certain areas more easily ... but you can also massage anyone's back, thighs, calves. And you can insert the Atom into the two ends of the Axle to work on your pectoral muscles.
WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE COMPARED TO A TRADITIONAL CYLINDER?
The shape of the Axle is completely different from that of the foam rollers. It fits snugly on your back and thigh muscles without irritating your bones. It's also durable and fits in your gym bag.
WHAT GUARANTEE APPLIES TO THE PRODUCTS?
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, say, in 3 years, you notify us, and if the breakage is due to a manufacturing defect, we will send you a new Roller.
WHAT ARE THE CONTRAINDICATIONS?
- 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.
IF I AM NOT HEALTHY, CAN I USE THE PRODUCTS?
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.
HOW OFTEN SHOULD I USE THEM?
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.
HOW LONG SHOULD A TREATMENT LAST?
5-10 deep breaths are enough for each position.
WHAT DO I NEED TO FEEL TO KNOW I'M DOING IT RIGHT?
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).
WHEN WILL I FEEL THE EFFECTS OF THE EXERCISE?
Contact us using the contact details at the top of the page or by filling in the contact form. You can also call our physiotherapist directly at +36309895315.
HOW CAN I ASK FOR HELP IF I AM UNSURE?
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.
DO I NEED TO MOVE AFTER AN SMR TREATMENT?
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.
THE EVOLUTION OF THE MASSAGE ROLLER
Not too big. Not too small. At 36 cm long, it's exactly what it should be. Most massage cylinders are 50, 90 or even 130 cm long, which not only makes them a headache to store, but also makes them difficult to work with. RAD Axle's size is ideal for easy, efficient use while remaining portable.
COMBINE WITH OTHER RAD TOOLS
The Atom fits exactly into the Axle, which can be very useful when treating pectoral muscles. You can also thread the Rod through the tunnel in the middle of the Axle, giving you a massage roller with a handle to comfortably treat your leg or someone else's.
HARD INSIDE, SOFT OUTSIDE
It is a sin to use broken, deformed foam cylinders, and using rock-hard alternatives is too painful. RAD Axle combines a hard, durable inner core with a comfortable, soft EVA foam outer to provide the happy medium. The foam cover, which is also considered soft among RAD products, makes it excellent for beginners and a great warm-up tool. The design of the core, which includes spacers, ensures a long life even when used with heavier weights.

ideal for the back and legs
Finally, an SMR cylinder specifically designed for the human back. While the other cylinders have a flat surface, the Axle has a recess in the centre designed to be gentle on the spinal column, so that it (1) doesn't irritate the sensitive bones of the spinal column (2) and to give a little extra for massaging favourite areas like the thigh muscles, IT bands and the back of the shoulder. Axle is particularly useful for:
- Negligent maintenance
- Back pain
- Tight IT tape
- Muscle pain
- Muscle knots
- Muscle fever
- Tired thighs
- Tight hips
- Myofascial pain
