Roller != massage
The foam roller just hits the hip bone and collapses around it, not actually reaching the problem area whereas my masseur can work thumbs into the problem area. #kinky
He's also been doing some weird skin stretching thing around the area which may or may not help but it's not making it any worse.
The stretching is to loosen the muscles around the nerve which again isn't really something a roller will do.
You mean getting a small Japanese woman to walk over my back while burning incense isn't what I should've been doing?
