The roller measures 45cm long to deliver a more targeted muscle massage. Its shorter size makes it perfect for massaging muscles that a longer roller is too cumbersome to reach. It’s also ideal for popping in your gym bag, so you can massage your muscles wherever you go.
Regular exercise and repetitive movements can cause the fascia tissue surrounding your muscles to knot which can make them feel tight and painful. Rolling increases blood flow to your muscles which helps them to relax, loosens knots, and eliminates soreness and tension.
Rolling before a workout stretches the fascia tissue and loosens your muscles to increase your flexibility, prevent your overstretching, and reduce your risk of injury. Rolling your muscles after a workout helps them to recover quicker, so you’re fit and ready for your next workout.
