For my lower back I use a squishy ball (like Barre3 or Coregeous) but not my foam roller. I also use it for my bad hip when it is really hurting. I use YTU balls for my upper and mid-back. I use my harder roller for my hams, quads and calves and my soft roller for my shins.
I really like using P90X2 Recovery+Mobility if I want to use a DVD to follow. Also Denise Beatty's Fitness Fix has a short foam rolling segment (and beautiful scenery).
