“We all suffer from aches and pains. From the casual fitness fan, professional athlete and weekend warrior, to the everyday person looking to feel and move better, anyone can and should experience the benefits of foam rolling,” said Marco Garsed, VP of marketing for Implus, parent company of TriggerPoint. “As the category leader, TriggerPoint celebrates National Foam Rolling Day to bring awareness to the need and benefits of foam rolling and to encourage everyone to include it in their everyday routine.”

Research shows that foam rolling is an important and effective practice used to keep muscles and fascia healthy, releasing tightness and improving overall flexibility. Users can reap many benefits such as increased range of motion, improved blood flow, faster recovery, improved athletic performance and overall decrease in muscle pain and discomfort.

TriggerPoint is the industry leader in foam rolling, with a product line including its best-selling patented GRID® foam roller, to specialty-designed products like the MB5, MB2, STK and NANO, which target specific muscle groups to effectively release trigger points. In July, the company's new GRID VIBE roller will be available at tptherapy.com and select retailers.
