The main difference is the added benefit that the PATrigger gives you. In fact, many years ago I also owned conventional fascia rollers. These served their purpose to some extent. I could massage myself on them. But nothing more. And even for that they were not optimal: too short, too thick and too unwieldy. I came up with the idea of optimizing the geometry. The PATrigger was developed shorter and thinner. I integrated holders for two additional massage tools and thus created a miracle of space. Thus, the PATrigger is suitable for much more than the so-called "fascia rolling".
