The Myo-Roller is one of the most effective ways to give yourself a soothing deep muscle massage targeting trigger points, which ultimately reduces pain and discomfort. The process when using your Myo-Roller is called Self Myofascial Release (SMR), which is a technique used to release tension and realign the body.
Myo is Latin for "muscle" and fascia meaning "band". Fascia surrounds every muscle, bone, nerve and organ in the body.
Gluteus Medias:Sit on one side of glute area with your ankle of opposite foot across your quad.
Balance on hand and one foot holding the "hot spot" until pain diminishes. Roll
from the top of glute to the middle.
Iliotibia Tract:
Begin with the roller at your hip bone on your side. Keep your body perpendicular
to the ground. Balance on your forearm. Slowly roll to the "hot spots" and change
emphasis slightly by rolling from side to side.
The Myo-Roller can be used in myofascial release exercises and movements to assist in equalizing muscle tension throughout the body. It can also be used for thoracic
mobility. In addition, they can be used for precision in core/balance training.
