TheraFlow Small Dual Foot Massager for Plantar Fasciitis Relief - Foot Massager for Neuropathy, Foot Roller for Foot Pain Relief | Feet Massager for Pain Relief and Circulation - Ideal Gifts for Mom

It's well made for the price. I can't say yet whether it will help my Chemo-induced neuropathy.

I'd noticed my feet were a bit sore, cramped, and seemed to be missing some blood-flow. I finally had time to examine the situation, and got a can of corn; put it on the floor and rolled my foot over the can. Great! There were various spots on the bottom of the foot that actually hurt when I did the rolling. But that went away, and I guessed I was dealing with trigger points, stress points, and muscle tightness. So I did more research, and read about the fascia.This fascia thing is what our body is made with. Some people call it connective tissue, others call it collagen. It's a sheath, a body filler and everything else. And we have a lot of it on the bottom of our feet. That fascia gets all kinds of knots, locks, bumps, and whatnot, and all that needs to be massaged out -- loosened. Learning this, I did the can of corn some more and lo and behold, I felt better. I'd been worried about that bit of pain, thinking I had a broken foot I didn't know about. No...just fascia trigger points.You really can't get these out by stretching the foot, wearing different shoes, or doing a typical foot rub. They really need to be rolled out. Just look up some videos on why people use foam rollers. Same problem, larger muscles. But a foam roller is too big for the bottom of your foot. Hence...a foot roller.The corn can slipped all over the place, making it hard on my legs as I tried to both roll my foot and keep the can in place. So, I went to Amazon and found a couple of different foot rollers. When I looked in Walmart, I also found a roller, but on the "wheel" part, it was very smooth. I knew it would slip. Then I looked more at Amazon models. I saw one with a sort of tread on the rolling wheel, and also ran across this product.The Theraflow was the same basic price point, but on the ends there's a base with a non-slip footing. Additionally, the rollers are more "bumpy," designed to get a better, closer and a little deeper massage. I was ready to buy that one. Then, in the "also looked at," I saw the same device, but with two rollers! Combined. With one for each foot, that roll independently, and at mostly the same price.First time using it, I immediately noticed how it didn't slip (on the carpet, by the couch). That made it a lot easier on my thigh muscles. Then I noticed how much of a better effect there was, as opposed to the can of corn. I'd gotten an email note with some tips from the company, when they got the order, suggesting going in opposite directions when using both feet. I did that, and it was perfect!Then I stood up...after about 15 minutes of just having fun, rolling my feet. Holy Cow! Suddenly I could feel my feet, I could feel the floor, I could feel the carpet, and I realized I walk funny! Over the past while, I've learned how to better balance myself on my feet, which also helps reduce knee pain. I sleep better, since my feet don't feel like they're in a pair gloves. And my feet don't get tired from walking through really big stores.All in all, this is a really superb little product, which doesn't cost a lot of money. But you get all the benefits of some expensive massage therapist. I'd wish for the rollers to maybe be another inch in diameter, just to make it a little more comfortable and somewhat easier to roll on. I've compared the size of the rollers to the can of corn, and there's a little bit of difference. It's not that big a difference, and the advantage of the smaller roller might be getting into the fascia, maybe.Whatever the case, I really like this product. I'm tempted to get a second one, just so I can sit on the couch and not worry about keeping my legs close together. After all, exercise should be comfortable, right? Right!

I recently started having pain on my feet and got this to alleviate it. I like that it’s light and easy to carry in my back when I go to the gym. The price was perfect.

When I found my daughter using a glass jar under her desk to roll her foot I went on here to find a better option. These rollers are much smaller than the jar and are not really great for reaching your arch but she uses it more as a fidget thing while studying. Seems pretty durable and it was worth the money but as far as a massage the rollers are pretty small. So if you are looking for more of a flat foot massage then this would work for you. As far as a fidget it helps to keep your feet moving while sitting.

I am amazed at how well this product works to relieve plantar fasciitis. I’ve been suffering from pain with Plantar Fascitis for about 3 months now. I went to the doctor about it and she gave me a script to get an X-ray to confirm her suspected diagnosis, I haven’t scheduled the appointment yet but decided to do some research and see if I can get some relief by doing exercises or so. The same day I ordered this, I went to the Tube and learnt of the pulling toes exercise that helps relieve the pain. I got some relief with the toe pulling exercise and once this came, I got much better results that I was able to exercise doing jumping jacks and rope jumping. I wasn’t able to do that before due to the pain and now everyday I try to run my feet on this little device in attempt to get rid of the pain once and for all. Initially, when I first used it, it was very painful but I heated through the pain and I’m glad I did because the relief I felt the next morning was priceless. I tried on my other foot that fine and noticed it was very annoying. I’ll have to bear through the annoyance to keep using it to prevent plantar fasciitis once I no longer have the condition in my left foot.I highly recommend this product and for the price it’s definitely worth a try. I recommend beating through the pain on the initial use as there will be pain if you’re current experiencing pain due plantar fasciitis.

I am a 40 year old over-weight woman workin' on that overweight thang and recently just got back into the workforce after far, far too many years away. I now work retail, and those of you who also work retail, well, you know the number it can do on your feet. I have some insoles to help support me right now as I save up for some really good arch support / plantar sneakers, but at the end of a shift my feet are usually as tired as I feel and look.I'd been doing some shopping around here on amazon, reading reviews, comparing prices and found the Thera flow foot massagers line. I was originally going to buy the larger one with multiple rollers, but I wasn't suuuuurrreeeee if it would work for me, you know? Sometimes feet and people are picky and what works for one person won't for the other. So I decided instead to try out the single foot roller and see what it felt like.It arrived via Prime yesterday afternoon and, admittedly, I have been using it near CONSTANT since! I placed it right under my computer desk and have been rolling my feet for a little bit each day and it feeeellss sooooo GOOD! It has been a delight. If I use it long enough, my feet begin to feel very warm, relaxed and almost tingly. Not the bad, fall-asleep-static-tingle, but just an overall well massaged tingle (if that makes sense?)I go back to the land of retail working tomorrow, so I look forward to coming home and trying this roller on my very well worked feet!As this is only day 2 of owning the roller, I will wait about a month to come back and edit this review with how well its held together after a full 30 days of use. But, so far, so good!
