Foam Rollers

Foam Rollers

You may have seen foam cylinders in the sporting goods section of your favorite store and figured that this was a misplaced bedding product or odd-looking pillow for real fitness seekers. However, these foam rollers are actually a fantastic way to relieve tension and ease muscular pain.

When properly used these foam rollers will apply even and firm deep tissue pressure to an area of contracted muscle and provide a myofascial release to areas of muscular discomfort. In addition, foam rollers can be used to aid in stretching exercises and increase flexibility in once tight muscles. Foam rollers are like buying a massage therapist and a stretching session in a box. Give it a spin and iron out those kinks in your muscles.
