REI Members get back an estimated $ 2.80 on this item as part of their annual member refund.

The REI Member Dividend

The REI dividend is a unique benefit of membership in the REI co-op. It's comprised of your member refund—typically 10% back on eligible purchases—and/or your REI Visa® card rebates.

Each March, active REI members and REI Visa cardholders who earned a rebate receive a refund in the form of an annual dividend notice.

Only active members receive annual dividend notices. To maintain your active status as an REI member, you need to make net merchandise or shipping purchases of at least $10 per year, unless you joined that year. Member numbers are issued in one name and only that person receives the member refund. Your number can be used by others in your family, but it cannot be transferred to someone else.

Questions? Call us at 1-800-426-4840 for more about your dividend or its redemption.

Comments about Pro-Tec Athletics Roller Massager:

I thought that REI buyers were supposed to test as many products as they could in a category and then choose to carry the best peforming products for the best price. Unfortunately for REI customers, REI buyers failed at their jobs. There are definitely better hand-held "massage rollers" out there including The Stick and the Tiger Tail. Do yourself a favor and buy the best somewhere else.

Comments about Pro-Tec Athletics Roller Massager:

I am an avid runner and so is my boyfriend. I have the "travel stick" as well as the Protec massage roller. I actually prefer the protec roller better because it is sturdier. The stick bends if you put too much pressure and gets old easily in my opinion. I have to say that this massage roller works much better when someone else rolls you with it. When I use it on my own it is ok but when my boyfriend massage rolls me with it, it is great. We are both runners and when we don't use this we notice a huge difference. Our muscles are sore and tight and it takes longer to recover. I was surprised to see negative reviews because it has been great for us.

Comments about Pro-Tec Athletics Roller Massager:

The Roller Massager is just one of the products that I use by Pro-Tec Athletics and it works great! I've used it before and after all my training and several marathons and it's really improved my flexibility and reduced tightness and soreness.

I've also used their IT band wraps and they helped me get through a half-marathon when I literally couldn't run at all a few days before. Great product, great company!
