Is it worth it? It’s more than worth it! It’s a bargain. It’s a good deal, it's affordable, and it’s reasonable. The Rehab Roller contains the functional elements of 6 products in one, making it affordable to have all of the fitness and rehab tools you need to take care of your body. This is one of the reasons we created it. We want patients to have a tool they can use for any exercise their therapist prescribes, take their therapist’s hand and techniques home with them, and spare the clutter of buying 10 products individually. Let us give you a story about a patient that inspired the idea for the Rehab Roller.
I was working with a patient and over the course of one year, on and off for different conditions, I realized that year she had every fitness product in our clinic, as well as a few others. So I looked in the physiotherapy magazines and brochures I got from the Canadian Physiotherapy Association to see how much money she had dished out for fitness products. She had purchased a calf stretcher, a peanut roller/acu ball back roller, and foam roller.
The plastic slant board that she purchased was $80.99 (these typically will range anywhere from $60-$120 retail).
The EVA foam roller she purchased was $59.99 (there is a lot of variety when it comes to foam rollers, but these also range from $19-$190).
The Peanut roller, she purchased from our clinic for $19.99 (These range from $15-$59).
Now, I’m no math major, I’m just a physiotherapist, but when you add that all up, she paid around $160.97 before tax and shipping, for 3 products. They were good, useful products, but they are all included in our foam roller. Our RehabRoller actually has 6 products in one. All of these products are incorporated in it, as well as a wrist/finger/hand stretcher (which doesn’t even exist on the market, to my knowledge, but lets say another $20-$30 value at least) and a pointed tip that can be used as a pso-rite, or active releaser that will mimic your therapists hand (~$99 value). This patient was also going to a chiropractor 2x/week for 4 weeks when her shoulder was hurting to get 5 minutes of active release on her shoulder. She could’ve just learned the technique used the RehabRoller at home and save (~$400). Now, the chiropractor probably was helpful with education and answer questions at the same time, but depending on the situation you can make a case for using the RehabRoller instead.
The Rehab Roller includes at least approximately $260.97 of value, all for $99.97. So, in conclusion; I think it’s a good deal, I think it’s affordable, and reasonable. Additionally, when you get one you become part of the Rehab Roller team on a quest to have a better functioning pain free and more functional, comfortable body. You get the added value of having videos, Instagram stories/posts/ info pages, reminders and instructions of how to use the roller, and more. So Instead of buying a single set of various fitness products that you’ll probably never use, or lose in the corners of your house for $260, buy two Rehab Rollers and give them as gifts to your friends and family, they’ll thank you, and you’ll have spent the less money.
