The Benefits of SMR (Self-Myofascial Release) aka Foam Rolling

Everyone can optimize their physical potential
with a simple performance enhancing technique used by some of the world's greatest athletes, dancers, and fitness enthusiasts to help promote and maintain muscular flexibility and ideal range of motion.

I'm sure you've seen these foam rollers

Maybe you've even used one
Many people haven't, and those who have are usually using them incorrectly.
To reap the benefits of SMR it should be performed SLOWLY, and the first few times, under supervision to ensure that you are doing it correctly.

SMR "Self Myofascial Release" aka Foam rolling
is a performance enhancing technique, used by some of the world's greatest athletes, dancers, and fitness enthusiasts to help promote and maintain muscular flexibility and optimal range of motion.
It is also used as a recovery technique prior to and after intense workouts.

SMR is essential for every active individual.
It is excellent for anyone who experiences sore muscles, excessive tightness or decreased range of motion; anyone who wants to maximize their physical potential; anyone who needs a massage but doesn't enjoy a stranger's touch.

SMR is an excellent tool
It helps to improve flexibility; is a perfect supplement to professional massages; is essential for anyone who lives an active lifestyle, and is looking to maintain a balanced, well cared for body.

Please Note
SMR can be uncomfortable at times, sometimes painful.
I usually suggest that participants attend at least one Breath-Control and Mindful-Movement Workshop or a Restorative/Relaxation Class at The Controlled Burn Fitness Studio prior to attending an SMR Workshop in order to give participants the awareness/tools to deal with the discomfort one may experience while performing SMR.

When performing SMR
Breathe and Relax

Please feel free to contact the Controlled Burn Fitness Studio
with any questions and to schedule your own private SMR Class/Workshop. Maximum 4 Participants
