Presentation

Hello Everybody! My name's Lex, I'm Physical therapist and osteopath, 30 yo from italy. I've been into trigger point and Mysiofacial Syndromes for 4 years since I've seen a collegue in swiss, where i've studied, treating a front shoulders' pain from the infraspinatus muscle, and that's behind thew shoulder. I nmade a strange face asking myself if she was nuts to not go directly to the pain's place, but rubbing for some minutes kicked out the pain that the patient had.


Since then i use the trigger points as my main source of pain relief.


i've been through some stressful situations in my past that "tenses up" my muscles taking me to a close situation called "fibromialgia" that means short stamina, general muscle pain in the trained muscles and tons of frustration as my expectations of young man willing to improve his human machine got close were non achieved.

This blog is about my experience on foam rollers, a device that everyone can use for self treating these muscle knots that limit the true potential of our muscles capacity of expression.

There are loads of foam rollers on the market but I built my own for around 7$ instead of 30-50$.





















I made my own from a plastic tube that is used for connecting your house to the main sewer system, the foam is for wrapping the aircooling tubes and it's between soft and hard, and black ducktape for electrical uses as it's a bit elastic and squeeses well the foam on the tube.

I checked some exercises on the net and started my journey for muscle change...

A BIG thanks goes to Cassidy Phillips, the creator and CEO of TRIGGER POINT PERFORMANCE, the guy i got inspiration from, do check his page
