(Health-NewsWire.Net, May 28, 2015 ) London, United Kingdom -- Everyone can experience tightness, cramping and general muscle soreness in their body after a workout, not just the professional athletes. However this does not mean going to a personal masseuse to alleviate the pain and soreness as it isn't always financially viable.
Luckily foam rollers provide an affordable and simple way to self massage in order to loosen tight muscles, with the added benefit of choosing the area of massage and the amount of pressure being applied.Using a foam roller can provide an effective myofascial release as well as quickly releasing muscle tension and soreness.
What is myofascial release?
Fascia is the biological fabric that holds the body together. The body has approximately 70 trillion cells all humming in relative harmony; fascia is the 3-D spider web of fibrous, gluey, and wet proteins that hold them all together in their proper placement. How fascia works as a whole – the biomechanical regulatory system – is highly complex. Understanding fascia is essential to the connection between stability and movement – crucial in high performance, central in recovery from injury and disability, and ever-present in everyday life.
When fascia is in its normal state it is relaxed and supple. When it becomes restricted due to long periods of inactivity, injury, or overuse, it is rigid and less flexible, which creates tension, restricted movement, discomfort and pain.
Myofascial release or foam rolling is a safe technique that is designed to relieve skeletal muscle pain and immobility by applying trigger point pressure to the specific parts of the body that have been affected. It is effective for increasing function, flexibility and reducing pain in virtually any area containing soft tissue.
Myofascial release therapy has also been used to treat other conditions including temporomandibular joint disorder, carpal tunnel syndrome and even migraine, headaches and fibromyalgia. The myofascial release technique can improve blood and lymphatic circulation in the muscles. It is possible to help increase athletes performance, making it not only an effective tool for assisting recovery from an injury, but also a useful way of preventing injury occurring by keeping the muscles relaxed and enhancing muscle performance. The spokesman for TLV Fitness was thrilled about the new product release on Amazon, saying " Even if you're not a fitness buff. It's a great way to give yourself an amazing therapeutic massage." The Foam roller is currently on sale on Amazon and 50% off the original price.
