Regular use of a foam roller can decrease delayed onset muscle soreness (DOMS) after intense workouts, helping to speed up the recovery process.
Improves Flexibility And Range Of Motion
The pressure applied by foam rolling can help release knots or "trigger points" in muscles, which can contribute to stiffness and pain. This helps to restore the muscle’s normal range of motion.
Prevents Injury
Foam rolling helps address muscle imbalances that could contribute to improper movement patterns or overuse injuries. By working on the muscle groups that may be too tight or weak, it can improve overall posture and alignment.
Enhances Posture
By alleviating tightness in muscles that may be pulling the body out of alignment (such as in the lower back, hips, or chest), foam rolling can help restore better posture over time.
