What is Self-myofascial release

Self-myofascial release (SMR) is a fancy term for self-massage to release muscle tightness or trigger points. It provides the user the ability to control the healing & recovery process; releasing trigger points & applying pressure to specific points on your body can assist with re-establishing proper movement patterns & pain free movement which will help enhance performance.
