Body Rolling
By Sharon Truelove
Want to ease those aches & pains; or better yet prevent them?
Body Rolling is a therapeutic self-care practice that can help prevent headaches, low back problems, and tension from repetitive stress in the back, neck, and shoulders.
Using a two-pound Pilates ball:
- Lie on it and allow your body weight to sink into it
- Roll gently back and forth to help release muscle tension
To alleviate backache at your computer during the day, place the ball between your low back & the chair & lean against it.
Ahhhhhh…….
wow, this is actually helpful thanks Ross!
I can see where this would be a useful practice; and I could actually see myself using it on a regular basis. Could this be adapted for use in a car, as well?
Yes this would be great in a car. It would help in long distance travel. It’s great for truck drivers.
I had to do some of these exercises and these pictures make them look easy, but they are not. They do help if you do them daily or often.
This looks very helpful to do and im will be trying them to see how it benefits me.
Very informative and thorough information
