Foam Rolling 101
Foam rollers are only intended to help with general stiffness and soreness from normal physical activity. Foam rollers are not intended to treat injuries. You should seek medical care for any injuries you experience.
Use our foam rollers at home, the gym and wherever feels good. Oceanfoam rollers are firm and work great to roll out areas like the bottoms of your feet, legs, arms and upper back before or after a workout or physical activity.
Our full size roller is more suitable for use on the ground to massage all the muscles in your body properly. Our travel roller works great standing up (for the bottoms of your feet) or seated in a chair (providing lumbar support for your back and neck) or on a counter or raised surface (massaging your arms and legs).
Talk to a trainer or medical professional for advice before you foam roll. If it hurts, stop and get proper instruction.
For beginners, limit the time you are foam rolling to 30 seconds per area to avoid bruising and over-rolling your muscles.
Experts do not recommend foam rolling your lower back, neck or IT bands. For more information, check out the article here.
