OPTP PRO-Roller Soft Density Foam Roller — Half-Round, 36" x 3"
The flat-bottomed half roller I use for spinal alignment, chest opening, and balance work — it stays put under you instead of rolling, and the soft density makes it comfortable for people who prefer not to use a firm roller.
OPTP PRO-Roller Foam Roller (Standard Density)
My clinical-standard roller — firm, durable, the right density for most people.
Two soft, palm-sized balls and an illustrated guide for gentle release work on the floor. You rest on the balls under your back, neck, hips or knees and let the tissue let go with slow breathing instead of forcing it. It's a good starting point for people who find foam rollers and lacrosse balls too intense.
Aegero Massage Lacrosse Balls (2-pack)
Cheap and effective for pinpointing a knot in the back, hip, or foot.
Shaped to work safely alongside the spine — great for the upper back and neck.
A roller stick for targeted work when you can’t get on the floor.
Red Light Therapy for Body and Face, 660nm 850nm 940nm
Infrared Redlight Therapy Lamp Device with Large Panel and Stable Stand.
FDA-cleared targeted red/near-infrared light for joints and muscles, hand held device.
Segment-by-segment spinal mobility and release along the back and between the shoulder blades — firmer and more targeted than a foam roller for the muscles beside the spine.
Trideer 9-Inch Pilates Ball (Small Exercise Ball)
A small, firm ball for core activation, gentle spinal work, and between-the-knee support in the home exercises I assign — inexpensive and genuinely useful.
Lifepro Rumblex Plus 4D Vibration Plate
A whole-body vibration platform for low-impact circulation and mobility work at home — useful for people who need movement input without loading a joint. Comes with resistance bands and a remote; 500 lb capacity.
RENPHO Active Thermacool 2 Massage Gun
My value pick for soreness and warm-up — heat + cold, FSA/HSA eligible.
