Abstract Siebert, T, Donath, L, Borsdorf, M, and Stutzig, N. Effect of static stretching, dynamic
stretching, and myofascial foam rolling on range of motion during hip flexion: A randomized …

Context: Many athletes report that foam rollers help release tension in their muscles, thus
resulting in greater range of motion (ROM) when used before stretching. To date, no …

Foam rolling (FR) is a method of self-myofascial release (SMR) implemented to reduce
tension in underlying soft tissue, leading to increased range of motion (ROM). The hip …

Background Foam Rolling (FR) has steadily gained in popularity as an intervention to
increase range of motion (ROM) and reduce pain. It is believed that FR can remove …
