Opening the Shoulders

What's a Smartroller®?

The Smartroller is the only patented foam roller, and was designed by Stacy Barrows for her patients. The word soon got out and OPTP.com (the largest foam roller distributor) licensed and made the SR to Stacy's specifics. Learn more here. Below are two sample classes that were recorded to try with your Smartroller to improve your moves.

Lessons

Here are two lessons that can be performed while working with your Smartroller. Please do them only if you are able to lie on the Smartroller comfortably. Take the necessary rests you need to observe your comfort, and refer to the Smart Guidelines for learning. Once you have done these lessons, you can skip the directions and use the Smartroller as a part of your daily routine. If you do not have a Smartroller, you can purchase one at these sites: Amazon or OPTP.

The anatomy of your shoulder is designed to provide a wide range of motion, allowing for a broad range of use of your arms.

However, if your movement is done poorly, your shoulder mechanics may present challenges while you sit at a desk, lift objects or perform finely coordinated skills with your hands. When the SMARTROLLER is flipped over, the oval shape will support your upper body, allowing your shoulder blades to move easily on your back. This idea will help restore a balanced muscle support in your arms and full body.
