A curated "playlist" of a few of my favorite MFR techniques for overworked shoulders -- perfect for surfers, athletes, and weekend warriors.
You will need a few props that you can commonly find around your home. For example, we’ll be using therapy balls to target tight tissues around the shoulders. I prefer to use the RAD Recovery Rounds that were created in collaboration with my yoga school, Yoga Medicine. I find that they are the perfect density to work into tender spots. If you want to treat yourself to some top-quality MFR tools - feel free to use my code “CAITRAD15” for 15% OFF your order at RADroller.com.
If you don’t have therapy balls, you can use tennis balls (or something similar - keep in mind the smaller & more dense the ball, the more intense). You don’t want this to be painful, so even a pair of rolled up socks could be helpful. You’ll also need a yoga block or a foam roller, and a couple of pillows or a blanket may also come in handy.
These are great to do at the end of your day or after a long surf or training session. I hope it’s helpful and please feel free to reach out with any questions you may have!
