Fascia Rolls
Great fascia rolls for competitive athletes, recreational athletes & therapists
What are fascia?
Fascia are part of the connective tissue of the human body. The fascia envelop all muscles and organs and keep them in shape. The fascia or the fascia tissue forms its own organ system. This tissue can twist, harden or stick due to incorrect loading, lack of movement or incorrect positioning. This can result in muscle tension in the neck, shoulder, back or legs. Fascia training or targeted training of the fascia can relieve this muscle tension, keeps the connective tissue soft and elastic, combats pain and increases the flexibility of the muscles. It is precisely in this fascia training that the so-called fascia rollers or massage rollers come into play. In addition to the fascia rolls, there are also fascia balls. Compared to fascia rolls, the fascia balls serve the same purpose.
What are fascia rolls?
Everyone completes a first fascia training in the morning when he gets up and extensively stretches and stretches. Fascia rollers ensure true therapy and treatment of the fascia. Because to relax the fascia and make the tissue elastic again, targeted movement therapies and massages with the fascia rollers help. The connective tissue is extremely receptive to pressing, pulling and kneading with the fascia rollers. The fascia rolls can be used professionally by physiotherapists. On the other hand, everyone can use the roles for self-massage on their own body at any time while lying, standing or sitting. At the beginning, beginners should have the exercises with a fascia roller shown by a physiotherapist or have them give exercise instructions. In addition, you should adjust the pressure on the tension to the individual pain sensation. All exercises with a fascia roller have the goal of squeezing the fascia so that the tissue can then absorb liquid again. In addition, trigger points are specifically addressed during the massage with fascia rollers. Fascia rolls are not only used to treat pain, but many competitive athletes or athletes in the fitness area also use the rolls when warming up the muscles and after exercising. This promotes the regeneration and mobility of the muscles or fascia tissue. The rollers can also be used for stretching exercises. The intensity of the treatment or fascia training can be dosed yourself. The more pressure is exerted on the fascia roller, the higher the effect or intensity of the training.
Buying the right fascia roll
The selection of fascia rolls, massage rolls or hard foam rolls is large. In general, we recommend beginners to use softer rollers and advanced users to use harder fascia rollers. You should also adjust the degree of hardness to your own pain sensation during the exercises. The size or diameter (in centimeters) of the fascia roll is based on the region of the body in which the roll is to be used. In addition, the fascia rolls are not only available in different sizes or with different diameters (in centimeters), but also with or without grooves. The grooves on the fascia roller promote blood circulation because the surface with grooves causes the roller to vibrate during treatment.
