Foam Rolling 101

Tight muscles? Feel like you need to stretch all the time? Foam rolling may be the missing piece of your puzzle! 

What is foam rolling? Foam rolling is a form of myofascial release, a technique used on skeletal muscles to decrease tightness and improve blood flow. It applies pressure to the fascia on your muscles using body weight and a foam cylinder. Foam rolling helps promote muscle recovery and improve mobility.
