Pilates Foam Roller Massage and Stretch; Pilates Lifestyle

At the end of an intensive foam roller Pilates workout I aways treat my clients to a mini-massage.
The great thing about the roller is that once you have bought it, you will have free massages for life! Once you try a massage on the foam roller I think you will be hooked.
It can be really intense and quite painful. You discover for yourself which muscle groups you use more than others depending on how sore they are to massage.
I have tried to cover each large muscle group. When you find one and can feel the knots, stay there for a bit longer and aim to massage it out. I think this is an essential piece of equipment for every home!
Enjoy the treat :)
