Foam Roller, a yoga prop illustration

Mobility

Foam Roller

A massage from a tube.

What it's for: A light cylinder for gentle self-massage and mobility work along the back and legs.

Try it gently

  1. Lay the roller under the area you want to soothe.
  2. Roll slowly, pausing on tender spots.
  3. Skip the lower back and joints, and breathe throughout.

No foam roller? A soft massage ball for small areas, used lightly.
