Iliopsoa Roll

Roll Iliopsoas

Positioning:
1. Start by laying face down on the floor.
2. Place the foam roller under your hip flexor area (iliopsoas) on one side of your body. The roller should be positioned near the top of your thigh.
3. Support your upper body using your forearms on the ground, positioning them shoulder-width apart.
4. Keep your legs extended behind you, with your toes pointed away from your body.

Movement:
1. Gently engage your core to maintain stability.
2. Slowly roll your body forward and backward over the foam roller, allowing it to massage your iliopsoas.
3. Focus on any tight or sore spots; you may pause and hold on these areas for up to 30 seconds to relieve tension.
4. Continue rolling for 1-2 minutes on one side before switching to the other side.
5. Remember to breathe deeply and relax your body throughout the process.

Tips for Beginners:
- Start with light pressure to avoid discomfort. You can increase pressure gradually as you become more comfortable.
- Ensure you’re using a clean and stable surface to perform the exercise.
- If you feel sharp pain, reduce pressure or pause the exercise.
