WHAT IS THE
MYOFASCIAL SYSTEM?
The Myofascial System is a superficial fascia (a thin sheath
of silvery tissue) that wraps around the outer surface of
muscles and individual muscle fibres. For various reasons
including inactivity, repetitive motions and injuries, this
silvery and underlying muscle tissue may bind together
causing painful ‘knots’ or ‘trigger points’. This Muscular
binding restricts movement, reduces flexibility and causes
muscles to fire improperly during exercise.
Why is rolling it out essential to your life?
Rolling it out using our Power Roller stretches muscles and
tendons releasing the fascia. Increasing blood flow and
circulation to the soft tissues, allowing muscles to fire at
peak efficiency during exercise.

BODY RESET.
IMPROVE YOUR RESULTS.
Rolling it out warms up the muscles, increasing flexibility by
breaking down adhesions within muscle fibres increasing
your metabolic rate by allowing more blood to pump
through your body. As with everything Consistency is the
most effective way to improve the appearance and function
of your body.
Tips for rolling it out safely and effectively:
•	Roll on soft tissue and avoid direct contact over bone
	 or joints.
•	Roll over each area (a minimum of) ten times unless
	 otherwise noted.
•	If you find a particularly painful area (Knots), hold on that
	 position for a few seconds and allow it to soften.
•	Expect some discomfort. You may feel very tender or
	 bruised at first. As you continue to roll it out, it will feel
	 less painful and more pleasing.
TOP TIP! Roll it out before your work out to
increase circulation and warm up your muscles.
