This is the perfect companion for your trip! Try massaging your entire body with a foam roller!<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

\u00a0Descriptions and advice in about 300-500 words. Photos and illustrations are also included.
In the previous post, we introduced the muscle ball. This time, we will introduce another useful tool for regular body care: the foam roller.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While a myofascial ball stimulates a specific area in a pinpoint manner, a foam roller is characterized by its ability to stimulate a wider area with its surface. By using your weight to roll slowly over it or move your body on top of it, it is also suitable for self-care of large areas such as your back and legs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Self-massage using a foam roller has been reported to temporarily increase joint range of motion and flexibility. It may also reduce muscle soreness and the perceived intensity of pain after exercise. On the other hand, the effects on recovery from fatigue and overall athletic performance are limited, so it is recommended to consider it a \"self-care method to make the body more flexible and easier to move.\"<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This time, it is more likely to clump together while traveling.

We will introduce 4 places where you can try this. Instead of enduring the pain and pressing hard, try it with a gentle stimulation that allows you to breathe slowly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
