It is known that a single bout of foam rolling (FR) or stretching can induce changes in range
of motion (ROM) and performance in non-directly adjoining areas of the dorsal chain (ie …

Background A single foam-rolling exercise can acutely increase the range of motion (ROM)
of a joint. However, to date the adaptational effects of foam-rolling training over several …

A single bout of foam rolling (FR) can acutely increase joint range of motion (ROM) without
detrimental effects on subsequent muscle performance. Similarly, long-term FR training can …

The purpose of this thesis is to examine the effects foam rolling has on performance
outcomes. Twenty-one male participants, sampled from William Paterson University's …

Introduction: Foam rolling (FR) is a popular tool for providing self-myofascial release. The
long-term use of FR is suggested to improve range of motion (ROM), flexibility, and a variety …

Background Self-administered foam rolling (SAFR) is an effective massage technique often
used in sport and rehabilitation settings to improve range of motion (ROM) without impairing …

Background Physiotherapists and other practitioners commonly prescribe foam rolling as an
intervention, but the mechanistic effects of this intervention are not known. Purpose The aim …

It is known that high-intensity exercise can cause inflammation and damage in muscle
tissue, and in recent years, physical therapists and fitness professionals have begun to use …

Purpose The chronic effects of unilateral foam rolling (FR) or FR with vibration (VFR)
intervention on the rolling and non-rolling sides (cross-education effects) are still unclear …

The purpose of this study was to determine the acute effect of hamstring foam rolling on
proprioception at the knee and hip joints. Twenty-five participants completed two …
