9. The Original Body Roller
I never thought a roller massager would be helpful until I tried one after a particularly strenuous workout. I could immediately feel the difference in my muscles and didn't have any cramping, either. I was lucky, though. Some friends have used cylinders that were too hard and made cramping worse. The Original Body Roller is 16.89 inches by 12.71 inches by 5.47 inches of just-firm-enough foam to release knots and adhesions. You can use the spiky side to massage your feet, and that's especially soothing for those with plantar fasciitis. Of course, it's also great for your quads, glutes, upper back, and other body parts.
