Join the Winter Rolling Series—January 9th-30th

  • Here's why you should start foam rolling TODAY!

  • Muscle Tension Release

    Foam rolling targets specific muscles, releasing tension and tightness. This physical release can translate into a sense of relaxation and reduced muscular stress.

  • Increased Blood Flow

    The rolling action stimulates blood circulation, enhancing the flow of oxygen and nutrients to muscles. Improved blood flow is associated with stress reduction and a sense of well-being.

  • Trigger Point Release

    Foam rolling can help intuitively target trigger points or muscle knots. Releasing these knots through self-massage can alleviate pain and discomfort, contributing to stress reduction.

  • Mind-Body Connection

    Engaging in an hour of foam rolling session involves mindfulness and focus on the body. This connection between the mind and body can have calming effects, reducing overall stress levels.

  • Endorphin Release

    Like any form of exercise, foam rolling can stimulate the release of endorphins, the body's natural feel-good chemicals. This can lead to an improved mood and reduced stress.

  • Relaxation Response

    Foam rolling, when done properly, can activate the parasympathetic nervous system, triggering the body's relaxation response. This counters the stress-induced fight-or-flight response, promoting a state of calm.

  • Improved Posture and Alignment

    Rolling out tight muscles and fascia can help correct posture by releasing tension that pulls the body out of alignment.

  • Enhanced Muscle Recovery

    Rolling over tight muscles can help release tension and increase flexibility, allowing for better movement during workouts and daily activities.

  • Injury Prevention

    Regular foam rolling can help identify and alleviate muscle imbalances, reducing the risk of injury during physical activities.

  • Cost-Effective Self-Massage

    Foam rolling provides a self-massage techniques that's accessible and cost-effective compared to professional massages.

Our Winter Series is Live and Starts January 9th!

Join this 4-part class series, dedicated to unraveling upper body tension, stress and pain. This is going to be a special series that focuses on melting through the layers of tension we build up around our necks, shoulders, upper backs, chests and faces. Each class will be a slow, moving meditation through revealing and treating upper body tension patterns.

This series is limited to only 11 in-person participants! This will be a small, special group of DIY releasers. Join in person in Oakland, Ca, or through Zoom from your own home.

Can’t wait to work deep into releasing postural patterns and upper body pain relief with you!
