i've been recommended to buy a foam roller for treating a stiff ITB and other muscles.

Anyone know where i can buy from one???

I just bought "the stick" on recommendation from Pantman...seems to be pretty good + it was £10 of normal price...

Not foam but similar idea..Pants has the details although the guy selling them is off in Malta to do the marathon and have a few days holiday.
