Rolling the erector spinae with a foam roller helps alleviate tension and improve flexibility in the lower back. It is an effective self-myofascial release technique that targets the muscles along the spine, promoting better mobility and reducing discomfort from prolonged sitting or strenuous activity.

How to do it

  1. Lie on your back with a foam roller positioned under your lower back.
  2. Bend your knees and keep your feet flat on the floor.
  3. Lift your hips slightly and shift your weight onto the foam roller.
  4. Slowly roll from the lower to mid-back by pushing through your feet.
  5. Continue for desired time, maintaining relaxed breathing.
