What is a Peanut Foam Roller?
A peanut foam roller features two rounded massage surfaces connected by a center groove, creating a shape that resembles a peanut. This design allows you to roll along either side of the spine, targeting paraspinal muscles while keeping the spine itself in the protective center channel. Unlike traditional cylindrical foam rollers that can put pressure on the spine, peanut rollers provide spinal-safe deep tissue massage.
What is Gription Technology?
Gription is Tiger Ball's patented surface texture that mimics a fingerprint pattern. This innovative design creates friction between the roller and your skin/clothing, preventing the roller from slipping during use. The result is sustained traction that allows the massage surface to grip and release muscle tissue and fascia more effectively than smooth foam rollers, delivering deeper, more therapeutic results.
What Areas Can You Massage with the Peanut Roller?
- Back & Spine:Ā Roll along paraspinal muscles from upper to lower back while protecting the spine
