Used by an abundance of fitness enthusiasts and athletes, foam rolling has now become arguably the most popular form of self-manual therapy, overtaking other techniques such as: self-massage and self-trigger point therapy. Although these techniques are often referred to as self-myofascial release therapy, there is currently great confusion amongst experts regarding this definition as the true effects of foam rolling on myofascial release are still not entirely understood. For the meantime, perhaps the use of ‘self-manual therapy’ should be the preferred term to avoid any confusion or confliction of opinions.
This form of self-manual therapy is often used for three primarily reasons:
Increase flexibility.
Reduce the delayed onset of muscular soreness (DOMS) and improve recovery.
Improve short-term athletic performance.
