Roll Away A Sore Back

Learn Easy Foam Roller Exercises To Relieve Back Pain & Stiffness

Using a foam roller is both a form of self-massage and a recommended warm-up technique for physical activity. It can be used before or after exercise or whenever you notice tightness that could use a light massage.

Foam rolling is a form of myofascial release—a technique used to target and soften or “release” tight connective tissue that surrounds muscles. These tight spots are known as trigger points. When connective tissue is too tight, it restricts mobility and blood flow and can cause muscles to become stiff and sore. By regularly foam rolling, you can gradually free up these trigger points, possibly reducing muscle and joint pain or tension.

Benefit Of Foam Rolling

  • Reduce muscle stiffness and delayed onset muscle soreness (DOMS)

  • Increase range of motion and flexibility

  • Increase your pain pressure threshold

  • Promote faster injury recovery and rehabilitation
