Dr. Robert Schleip: New Perspectives in Fascia Rolling with the Rollga Roller

World Leader, Robert Schleip, Ph.D., has dedicated his life to the studies of fascia and movement. Here is what he had to say about the Rollga Roller.
"So I just got the Rollga, and I love it. In Germany, we have all kinds different rollers with needles sticking out and different things. This one makes you play with it. It has all these different contours and it is an invitation to see how it fits to your body. You can put it into ways where you can focalize more, which is good, because you have more pressure on one spot. But you can also find ways where you distriute more and I like it because it is an invitation to explore. And in the old German foam rollers, it's not an invitation, you must do it a correct way. Here, like I said, you find a way where you fit into it. There are some applications where you want an even surface and contours. For instance, for the sponge effect, where you squeeze the water out of the sponge especially if it is old dirty water... You have areas in the connective tissue, where you have a lot of free radicals and other waste products. We think we can squeeze them out and then fresh water comes in to replace it, so a contour like the Rollga is much better. I love it."
