Myofascial Release is not only an awesome and highly effective treatment technique to receive during a therapy session, it can be used at home and this is what makes it stand out from the crowd. Self Myofascial Release using a small inflatable ball feels good, can reduce your pain and symptoms as well as prevent them in the future.

It is similar to using a foam roller, trigger point massager, yellow ball, theracane, but slightly different in technique. A tennis ball, like a foam roller, can often be too hard or too much pressure, and an inflatable ball can allow you to stay in one position for 3-5 minutes. Place it where you feel tightness, tenderness, restriction or pain to allow the tissue and your body to release completely without feeling like you have to protect yourself due to intense sensations or pain.

Disclaimer: As always, please use common sense, do not work, exercise or treat yourself through sharp and shooting pain and if you feel like your problem or pain needs further evaluation by your physician or physical therapist, please give them a call. If you have a recent injury, fracture or If you are pregnant please skip the psoas work in your stomach and if you have osteoporosis or compression fractures please avoid using the ball directly under your spine. If you have any questions or concerns about weather these exercises are right for you please check with your healthcare provider.
