Yamuna Body Rolling
Yamuna Body Rolling is practiced on 6-to-10 inch balls and is like a therapeutic deep tissue massage. Using the dynamic power of your own body we start by stimulating the bones, release tendons, then stretch out and elongate the muscles so that the body can relax into proper alignment. This will create a strong, toned, restriction free, full functioning healthy body. Body Rolling also empowers people to create new mind-body connections. Releasing muscle and fascia alone cannot correct structural issues. These balls are used to help the body to remember where and how things (bone, tendons, muscles, internal organs, etc) are supposed to be organized to restore function at our optimal level whether you are an athlete, have old or new injuries, looking for preventative help, or just want to be comfortable in your own body.
YBR heals the body’s problems at the same time that it helps get us in shape. Here are some of the main benefits:
- Increased range of motion, muscle length and tone, and circulation as muscles are freed from each other, from bone and from connective tissue
- Tones and elongates muscles
- Improves musculoskeletal alignment
- Better bone quality
- Freedom from old restrictive patterns caused by injury
- Increases circulation
- Develops and maintains core strength
- Stimulates nerve routes
- Increases metabolism
- Relaxes the nervous system
- Expands the lungs and deepens breathing
- Increases body awareness
