Product Description
With a muscle-friendly foam cover, the Tiger Tail Rolling Muscle Massager is a muscle massage tool that helps relieve muscle aches, cramping, spasms and stiffness by helping restore muscular balance. Designed for both individual and partner use, the Tiger Tail makes it easy to massage muscles that are usually tough to reach. The innovative, proprietary and patented massage foam instantly adjusts to skin temperature. Never cold to the touch, the high-density massage foam subtly molds around muscles and the skeletal structure - making it comfortable to the touch. The durable, non-absorbent, easy-to-clean foam improves over time instead of deteriorating like most foam. Our high performance, ergonomically designed, non-slip grips increase comfort, reduce hand fatigue, and facilitate greater massage pressure. The independently rolling massage bar smoothly glides over bare skin or clothing. Great for travel. Washes clean easily with a wet wash cloth. Made in USA! - An easy-to-use, natural pain relief and healing aid. - Controlled muscle manipulation smooths, loosens, relaxes and soothes. - Assists individuals in performing solo deep tissue massage, solo trigger point therapy and solo sports massage therapy. - Recommended and used by athletes, sports trainers, massage & physical therapists and chiropractors. - - Ergonomically designed, non-slip grips increase comfort, reduce hand fatique and facilitate greater massage pressure. - Independently rolling massage bar glides smoothly over bare skin/clothing. - Portable, easy-to-pack design is great for travel. - Washes clean easily.

Have for over a year and it's a no go! July 31, 2010
Lincoln County MT (Extreme NW Montana)
Had high hopes for using this item but it doesn't cut mustard so to speak.
It is difficult to apply and use on your lower legs and calves as well as shins.
It's a waste of money for me and I might look into the ones that another reviewer here
says has some flex to them and therefore might work better. This is awkward to use
at best.

I am a Physical Therapist and our clinic has both a "Tiger Tail" and "The Stick". It is really a matter of personal preference which one works better for patients...

Tiger Tail is good for people who like to apply more pressure while rolling out a muscle and it WON'T pull your hair out, so Men in particular tend to like the Tiger Tail better. The Tiger Tail seems less flimsy than The Stick so in the clinic we use Tiger Tail more frequently than The Stick unless I have a "sensitive" individual (in that case, I use The Stick)

The Stick is preferred by people who don't like as much focal pressure on any one part of the muscle. The more pressure that you apply with The Stick, the more it "gives" and curves around the body area, thus decreasing the focal pressure on any given area. So if you tend to be more sensitive with pressure this one may be better for you.

As far as actually getting into any trigger points in a muscle, a Backnobber or Theracane is more appropriate for that (again it is a matter of personal preference as to which one is right for you).

compared to the stick? May 20, 2010

I do not think it is reasonable to compare this product to The Stick. It is not on the same level. The stick has spindles that penetrate the muscle in ways that a foam roller can't, and since a foam roller can't, tiger tail can't. Tiger Tail also has no flex to it, it does not give so it does not wrap around the muscle and it is too stiff for many users. The marathon stick, and travel stick both have a good deal of flex to them. The comparison is not accurate.
