WHAT AFFECTS HOW INTENSE IT FEELS?
Contact surface size: Smaller contact area = deeper, more intense sensation. Larger area = 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 strong on particularly tight muscles. That's okay—it indicates that area needs the work.

WHAT IS A MINI MASSAGE ROLLER?
Helix is designed with two basic principles: it should be anatomically correct and it should be portable. The Helix's shape fits perfectly on your back and reaches exactly - and only - the muscles you want to treat. And because of its size and weight, you can easily take it with you wherever you go.
HOW DO I USE IT?
Simply place the Helix on the ground and lie on it with 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 RAD Roller YouTube channel or download the RAD Mobility app.
WHICH TOOLS CAN I COMBINE IT WITH?
The tunnel running through the centre of the Helix is designed exactly to the diameter of the RAD Rod. By driving the Rod through the Helix, you can treat the muscles near the shin in a very comfortable and effective way ... but you can also treat anyone's back, thighs, calves.
WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE COMPARED TO A TRADITIONAL CYLINDER?
The shape of the Helix is completely different from that of the foam cylinders. It fits snugly against your back without irritating your spinal column. With regular, short daily use, it can help you get rid of the sloppy posture that more and more of us are developing from stroking small screens.
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 after, say, 3 years, let us know and if the break is due to a manufacturing defect, we'll 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 PORTABLE MASSAGE ROLLER
BACK MASSAGE ANYWHERE
The RAD devices designed for the back have one thing in common: they all spare the spinal column. Thanks to the indentation in the middle of the device, you can treat the muscles next to the spine without affecting the sensitive bones of the spinal column.
COMBINABILITY
By guiding the RAD Rod through the Helix, you get a tool with a handle that can be used on a myriad of major muscle groups in the body. Try this new sensation on yourself or your client/partner.
DESIGNED FOR EFFICIENCY
Did you know that if you develop muscle tension somewhere in your body - say in your intercostal muscles - it puts extra strain on your mid and lower back muscles? So basically you get a painful chain reaction. The Helix is made from a special polymer that is soft enough for full-body weight-bearing exercises, but tough enough to be durable. So you can effectively use it to loosen up your back muscles, which will then follow through to the rest of your body. This polymer doesn't get soggy, doesn't soak up sweat like a regular foam roller and doesn't change shape or consistency with regular use.
