So it improves movement coordination. Yeah. You just gain better proprioception by rolling. It improves range of motion and mobility, and those changes can be obvious very, very quickly. Either rolling along the spine, you can change your shoulders. Rolling around the knee, you can help your hip, you can help your knee. So it works everywhere.

The surprising, I think some of the surprising thing is that the rolling improves torque. So when you roll, the muscle that you're targeting will be able to generate more forces afterwards. And this is specifically with rolling, not necessarily static compressive. So that I'm not sure of. I don't think anybody's done that research with torque necessarily.

That's great. It decreases pain.

You woke up, you're sore, get on the ball, roll yourself out and go practice again. It reduces arterial stiffness and improves vascular endothelial function. It's really good. You know, we don't want to have sticky vasculature, that's for sure. So getting stretch through this pressure and ringing, very helpful. It decreases delayed onset muscle soreness.

So whether that it times it out so that you get it on day three instead of day two, or you just had less of that inflammation. So that's a good thing. It induces physiological relaxation and parasympathetic features, which is One of my favorite parts about it.

It's a chill pill without taking a pill.

It reduces lymphedema and decreases local tissue inflammation. And there's some really cool research out of Harvard. Bo Ruscio did some research. Research with very, very soft tools.

I'm talking about the amount of pressure that a pencil eraser would exert if you dropped it into your hand when they destroyed some anterior tibialis of mice, and they did these very gentle oscillations using this implement. The mouse can't do self-myofascial release, so this was administered through these little tiny vices. But it was a very, very soft latex, not a hard...

So, I'm extrapolating here for that because the mouse did not roll itself, but it was a tool.

There's some research out of Germany. Dr. Robert Schleip is one of my favorite fascia researchers. He's one of the originators of the Fascia Research Congress and the Fascia Research Society. He has found with this group he's working with in a mental health institution there that the rolling is helpful for major depressive disorder.
