The Original Stick™

Are these the same as "The Stick"?

Yes! The Original Stick™ is the same product that has been the consumers' favorite for 30 years -- now with a new name. We truly appreciate your support over the years and are excited for what the future holds.

What separates The Original Stick™ from other massage rollers?
  • The Flexible Core: We specifically designed the core of the Little, Travel, Body and Flex Sticks to be firm, yet flexible. This allows the stick to contour to your muscles so you can evenly apply your ideal amount of pressure, giving you more effective results. Don't fear the flex. While The Original Sticks™ are flexible they are extremely durable and snap resistant!
  • Freely Rolling Spindles: Our proprietary design of freely rolling individual spindles will actually "roll" allowing pressure and compression into your muscles instead of sliding along like less effective knock offs. They will not get stuck on your clothing. They are smooth and safe to use on bare skin. Our advanced engineered spindles will not pinch your skin or pull at your hairs.
  • A Product Made To Last: Each of our massage sticks are made with a highly durable, snap and break resistant core. Unlike EVA foam rollers, that break down and lose their firmness, The Original Stick™ will not only stay as firm as it is on the day you receive it, it will also last for years.
  • No Battery Life Hassles: Whether it is before a marathon, after your toughest leg day, or hiking across the Appalachian Trail when you're ready for some muscle relief, the last thing you want to deal with is a massage gun with a dead battery. The Original Stick™ offers instant massage recovery anytime and anywhere you need it. No charging necessary.
Which stick is right for me?

While we do offer several variations of The Original Stick™ each one is a little different and you might be wondering "Which stick is right for me?".

This depends on a number of factors but here are the main points to consider when purchasing one of our massage sticks.

  • Which muscle groups do you intend to massage most frequently?: If you are a long distance runner looking to primarily roll out your legs and glutes then you should be fine going with a Little or Travel Stick. If you are a strength athlete looking to massage your particularly wide back then we would direct you towards the Body or Stiff Sticks. If you are a rehab patient with limited mobility the Flex Stick is a great option.
  • How do you intend to transport your stick?: If you are going on any camping trips or multi-day hikes then you know every inch of gear space matters. If you have minimal space available in either a backpack or gym bag then we suggest the Little or Travel Stick. If you are going to be keeping your stick in the bedroom to roll when you wake up or just before bed, or in your home gym for post workout recovery then portability is less important. Consider again our first point, which muscle groups you are desiring to massage and let that direct your purchase.
  • Summary: To put it simply the shorter sticks are compact and convenient and can massage most but maybe not all your desired muscle groups. The longer sticks can provide full body massage rolling relief but are not as portable.

If you are still struggling to determine which stick is best for you please send us a message on our Contact Us page.
