What is Foam Rolling?

Foam Roller

Foam Rolling is a self myofascial release technique.  Fascia is the layer of connective tissue covering our muscles and there is some evidence that this can become tight and cause pain.  Using a foam roller will help release tight muscles and fascia, and this will help recovery for anyone doing training.  For people training for an event this is essential, as myosfascial tension builds up as they progress their training programmes.

Try these foam rolling techniques below.  If you need a foam roller, call into the Motion Physio Clinic, Prosperous we have foam rollers in stock.
