Practically in every club now you can see bright, colorful rollers and massage balls.
Is everything really as simple as it seems?
In reality, there are features, techniques, methods, precautions, and knowledge about musculoskeletal tissue interaction.
Myofascial release (MFR) is a technique that combines self-massage using various equipment (rollers, balls, percussion massagers, and other devices) with breathing techniques for working with pain, improving athletic performance, increasing range of motion in a joint or group of joints, and effective recovery.
Aside from its mechanical effects, MFR also influences the body's nervous system. The mechanism is simple: working with mechanoreceptors sends a signal to the nervous system to relax muscles. In particular, myofascial release has a powerful effect on increasing range of motion in joints.
The rolling itself does not take long, but if you reinforce it with movement, our software gets updated, and the entire muscular system begins to work much more efficiently.
