Self-Massage Your Muscles Self-massage your pain away with a Core Balance 45cm Foam Roller. Short and portable to target smaller areas of your body and easily pop into your gym bag, the roller has a medium-density foam construction and smooth surface to deliver a more soothing muscle massage. /// Medium-Density EPE The muscle roller has a medium-density EPE foam construction. It’s firm enough to deliver a deep massage without feeling too unbearable. Although it might feel firm when you press it with your fingers, it has far more give than other rollers when greater pressure is applied to it. Short 45cm Roller The 45cm roller provides a more targeted massage than a longer roller and allows for greater versatility when rolling. Its shorter size makes it perfect for massaging smaller areas of your body that a 90cm roller is too long to reach, such as your calves, arms, lats, and thighs. Ideal for Beginners If you’re new to rolling, or you only moderately exercise, a medium-density roller is an ideal option. This is because your muscles need time to acclimatise to the pressure applied by a roller. If it’s too hard, the pressure applied could be too painful for your muscles to handle. Benefits of Rolling Overworking your muscles can cause the fascia tissue around them to tighten up and knot. This can make your muscles feel tight and painful. By rolling your muscles, you can increase blood flow to the area which helps to loosen knots and soothe aches, pain, and tension. Warm Up & Cool Down Foam rolling before a workout stretches the fascia tissue and loosens your muscles up to increase your range of motion and reduce the risk of injury. Once you’ve finished a workout, you can self-massage your muscles to relieve tightness and speed up your recovery time.
