| description | Introduction: Foam rolling is becoming one of the most popular treatments performed to prevent injuries in sport.Objective: The aim of this study is to determine the effect of a single-session, self-massage with a roller on functional limitations of the musculoskeletal system.Material and methods: The study included 101 persons (69 women and 32 men) aged 19 to 23. Group 1 consisted of 55 people who received training in self-massage with a roller. Group 2 comprised 46 participants who constituted the control group. All patients performed the Functional Movement Screen (FMS), without a warm-up and next (after one week), carried out FMS once again after the warm-up with foam rolling (Group 1) and a traditional warm-up (Group 2).Results: Significant improvement in the overall total FMS test score was observed after both forms of warm-up (exercises + rolling, exercises). The largest differences in Group 1 were noted in the Deep Squat and Hurdle Step tests (p0.001). In Group 2, a significant difference was found in exercise 6: Trunk Stability (p0.001).Conclusion: The roller-assisted warm-up had a particularly positive effect on the results of global movement tasks requiring postural muscle capacity and a high level of flexibility (Deep Squat and Hurdle Step). Using a roller in the initial part of the training is therefore fully justified. |
