Can a Vibrating Foam Roller Boost Recovery Time?
Vibrating foam rollers help with myofascial release. Science shows that they help your workout performance, reduce muscle soreness, and actually reduce cellulite. (Yes, you heard me right!)
Myofascial release is the process of massaging your connective tissue. Consequently, it allows for increased blood flow and reduces the fascia to help with flexibility and recovery. So, the question is, do we need a vibrating foam roller to have the proper myofascial release? Or do the regular foam rollers have the same effect on our muscle tissue?
Increase Circulation With Vibration
Vibration actually increases circulation, which helps with warming up your muscles before your lifts. In fact, it can help with any of your favorite sweaty workouts. This increased circulation also helps with recovery post-workout as well. The vibration helps relax muscles more, which is incredibly important during your warm-up and cool down. Because of this fact, many athletic performance gyms and physical therapists use vibration myofascial release tools.
