關於Foam Roller


Why Use the Roller?(此文來自健美操信息網)
---for Myofascial Release and Massaging Tight Muscles
釋放肌筋膜和收緊肌肉

Foam rollers offer many of the same benefits as a sports massage without the big price tag.
The foam roller not only stretches muscles and tendons but it also breaks down soft tissue adhesions and scar tissue. By using your own body weight and a cylindrical foam roller you can perform a self-massage or myofascial release, break up trigger points, and soothe tight fascia while increasing blood flow and circulation to the soft tissues.
泡沫軸作為一項運動按摩可以帶來很多的好處,而且價格便宜。
泡沫軸不僅能延伸肌肉和肌腱,它還能拆散軟組織粘連和疤痕組織。你可以用自身重量和一個圓柱形泡沫軸來自我按摩和肌筋膜釋放,打破觸發點,緩解緊張筋膜,同時增加血液的流動和軟組織循環。

二.How It Works ? (如何運作)
The superficial fascia is a soft connective tissue located just below the skin. It wraps and connects the muscles, bones, nerves and blood vessels of the body. Together, muscle and fascia make up what is called the myofascia system. For various reasons including disuse, not enough stretching, or injuries, the fascia and the underlying muscle tissue can become stuck together. This is called an adhesion and it results in restricted muscle movement. It also causes pain, soreness and reduced flexibility or range of motion.

表麵筋膜是一種位於皮膚下方的軟結締組織。 它包裹並連接肌肉,骨骼,神經和血管。 同時,肌肉和筋膜組成所謂的myofascia系統。由於廢棄、沒有足夠的伸展、受傷等多種原因,筋膜和肌肉組織可能會黏在一起。 這就是所謂的粘附,它會限制肌肉的運動。它也會導致疼痛,痠痛,降低身體靈活性和減小運動範圍。

Myofascial release is a body work technique in which a practitioner uses gentle, sustained pressure on the soft tissues while applying traction to the fascia. This technique results in softening and lengthening (release) of the fascia and breaking down scar tissue or adhesions between skin, muscles and bones. 。
肌筋膜釋放就是一名醫生用柔和而持續的壓力作用於軟組織,並使軟組織牽引肌膜的技術。這項技術可以放鬆筋膜,消除傷疤,黏合傷疤初的皮膚、肌肉和骨骼。
Using a foam roller is simple, but working some areas may take a bit of practice and some body contortion. You start by finding a relatively open area with some floor space. Position your body with the area you want to work on top of the foam roller. Your body weight creates the pressure that massages and releases tight spots in the fascia. You control the pressure by applying more or less body weight on the foam roller and using your hands and feet to offset your weight as needed. It's helpful to try a variety of positions and see what works best for you.
使用泡沫軸很簡單,但是要讓它對身體一些部位的起到鍛鍊作用還需要一些練習和身體的柔韌性。開始時,你應該找到身體需要鍛鍊的部位,將需要鍛鍊的部位放在 泡沫軸的上方。體重產生的壓力會幫助按摩並收緊筋膜。你可以通過手和腳的支撐控制身體對泡沫軸的壓力。試一試將身體的不同部位放在泡沫軸上,並找出那種方 法最適合你,這也是很有好處的。
三.Tips for Using a Foam Roller 提示使用泡沫輥
• 在試用泡沫軸鍛鍊前去檢查身體。
• 在熱身運動後在做泡沫軸鍛鍊。
• 將軸放在你想放鬆的軟組織部位下方。
• 輕輕在軸上滾動身體,來訓練需要訓練的肌肉。
• 將軸從身體中心到四肢緩慢移動。
• 如果您發現身體在軸上的部位疼痛 ,保持動作直到那個部位放鬆下來。
• 注意緊繃或很少運動的部位。
• 每一個部位在軸上滾動幾次,直到感到放鬆。有時可能會有些不適。
• 保證軸在軟組織部位下,不要直接放在骨頭或關節下。
• 第一次使用泡沫軸的時間要短,15分鐘足夠了。
• 在一開始時,在鍛鍊一段時間後要休息一會兒。
• 在鍛鍊後要喝大量的水,就如同在一個身體按摩後一樣。
• 如果需要的話,幾週之後可以增加訓練的時間。
• 如果你有任何心臟、血管疾病或慢性疼痛症狀,沒有醫生的准許不要使用泡沫軸。
