Tools for Self Massage

When scar tissue build-up in the soft tissues is neglected long enough, problems often result. Through hands-on massage or the use of a self-massage tool, these fibers are broken up and reabsorbed, thereby restoring the original state of the tissue.

Getting a professional massage is worth its weight in gold but can be costly. That’s why self-massage is so beneficial. You can extend the time between professional massage visits with just a little bit of effort daily.

Here are some tools that will help you master your self-massage.

Foam Roller

Great for larger muscle groups of the legs. Hamstring, quads, calves, etc., etc.

Massage stick

If rolling around on the ground isn’t your thing or on the go, the stick is great for all portions of the legs.

Lacrosse Ball

Great for targeting deeper muscles of the glutes and piriformis.

Golf ball

Great for the tight areas like the bottom of the foot

Foam Block

Great for elevating the golf or lacrosse ball for added pressure
