Foam rolling is a self massage method used to prevent muscle dysfunction, reduce muscle tension and soreness, and also enhance relaxation (especially after exercising!) 😄
Here is an example of a foam rolling routine Dr Izzy does after an upper body workout at the gym! 💪
- Lie down with a roller across your upper back, with hands on the ground by your sides or crossed over your chest, your feet flat and knees bent.
- Brace your core and push away, rolling down your torso from your upper back to your mid-back, straightening your legs.
- Then pull back, rolling on your spine from your mid to upper back.
If you have any questions about foam rolling, ask Dr Izzy or Dr Kate at your next chiropractic appointment! 👐 You can book online at waverleyroadchiro.com.au or call us on 9572-0277
