What is an EVA Foam Roller, and how do you use it?

A yoga stick is a yoga aid typically used for massaging and relaxing muscles. Made from sturdy materials, it comes in various lengths and diameters, with surfaces that may have different textures to provide varying massage effects.

 How to Use a Foam Roller :

1. Muscle Relaxation:
   - Place the yoga stick under the targeted muscle area and use your body weight to roll over it, which helps to relax tight muscles.
   - For example, you can sit on the floor with the yoga stick under your thigh, supporting yourself with your hands as you gently roll the stick to massage the thigh muscles.

2. Improve Blood Circulation:
   - Massaging with the yoga stick can promote blood circulation, reducing muscle stiffness and fatigue.
   - You can stand or sit and roll the yoga stick over your calves or forearms to stimulate circulation.

3. Increase Flexibility:
   - The deep massage provided by the yoga stick helps open up muscles and joints, enhancing flexibility and range of motion.
   - For example, place the yoga stick under your back while lying on the floor, and use your body weight to roll and relax your back muscles.

4. Relieve Muscle Soreness:
   - After exercising, using a yoga stick can help alleviate muscle soreness and promote recovery.
   - Gently roll and massage the sore areas, ensuring not to overdo it to avoid discomfort.
