How to Get Real, Powerful Results with a Foam Roller

You Denver locals likely know me as "the girl who steps on people" and helps her clients get incredible results. While I do highly recommend having this work done, there's no need to fear, non-locals! You actually can get similar results with a foam roller.⁣

How, you ask?⁣

Because I teach foam rolling based on my Fascia Remedy principles.⁣

Fascia doesn't change easily, so in order to get it to let go and release, we need:⁣

 

#1. A powerful compression⁣

#2. Intentional, 3D cross-fibering action⁣

 

In my practice, that powerful compression comes from my foot (check out the above video).⁣

When you are at home, you can get a less intense, but still effective compression from a foam roller.⁣

Once the area of restricted fascia is pinned, it's time to cross-fiber the tissue to release it!

 

In my practice, I talk people through an intentional, specific range of motion.

When you're at home, I teach you very similar (or the same exact) movements while you are on your roller.⁣

While it's true that the level of compression is greater when I am "stepping on you", we are still able to change fascia using these two basic principles. In this time when we might be unable to see a practitioner in person, it's still possible to relieve pain and refresh your movement with a simple, $15 tool. 

Ready to ditch your excuses and heal your pain from home?
