- In this video we will be covering ways to use a foam roller for low back pain.
We are using a multi zone medium density foam roller. The 3 unique massage zones replicate the thumbs, fingers, and palms so you can get the exact massage you’re looking for.
🌀 You can get this foam roller off amazon here: amzn.to/41iUL1g
Foam rolling is one of the most common and effective methods of relieving muscle tension, myofascial release, and deep tissue massage. In general, foam rolling is an excellent therapeutic tool for relieving tight muscles and creating more space in the body. Foam rolling is a great form of recovery for athletes, yogis, and anyone with a sedentary lifestyle.
In this foam rolling tutorial we will cover the following:
Lumbar Mobility
Supported Bridge Pose
Glutes and Piriformis
Hip Flexors
Hamstrings
Now that you’re equipped with these foam rolling exercises to relieve lower back pain, keep up the good work by making foam rolling a part of your wellness routine. You’ll continue alleviating tension and creating space in the body, and as a result, you’ll reap the benefits of reduced pain, increased range of motion, and a greater sense of wellbeing overall.

I had so much back pain from sitting down a lot and sleeping wrong. This help me relieve my lower back pain so much! Thank you!
As a runner who is training for a marathon, these foam rollers czcams.com/users/postUgkx9XSsjzA4f84VmhBCHlyhec7XILIxennL are really good for sore and tight muscles. This one is a good size (mine is the purple, 36 inches) not too big but big enough to work and roll both my legs at the same time - I took a photo holding the roller next to me just to provide a better representation of its size. I noticed some reviewers who complained that this is, “just a foam noodle”… and yes, that’s exactly what it is. It’s a high density foam roller. It is absolutely NOT the same consistency/strength/durability/ or texture as a ‘pool noodle’ thought and I disagree entirely with those that say so. As a former collegiate athlete and marathon runner, I’m comfortably giving this roller 5 stars. It’s lightweight and durable and does just what I need it to do at a budget-friendly price. Overall, I have no complaints and am happy with it!
Yep!
This video is the best instruction manual. I purchased foam roller while back, but this is the first time I used it so well with this video, I am feeling better from the day 1.. I will add more comments as I see more results
Not the sort of self massage I’m used to, but I’ll give it a go for my lower back pain.
You are an excellent teacher. I did all your exercises and it really helped my tight hip flexors! Bless you!
I hurt my lower back due to exercise recently and this helped immensely. I am definitely sticking to this routine. Thanks a lot 🧡
Wow, great job! Foam roller coming tomorrow and will use all these exercises. You rock!!!
It's amazing how much we forget that sometimes the pain is connected to another muscle in trouble. This totally helped relieve my lower back. Thank you.😊
Very true and so glad this helped you, Tracey!! Thanks so much for sharing your experience 😊
Thank you! Love the tutorial and precise instructions!
Been struggling for a while with lower back pain after cycling - after doing this for the last few weeks three or four times a week I feel like a new man!
This is so great to hear, Cycling Labs! Thank you for sharing and I'm so happy this video helped you. =) Ashton from YogiApproved
OMG, I have been suffering from upper and lower back pain and sciatica pain on my right from sitting in front of my computer 12 hours a day. This video tutorial has been so helpful and after doing all these exercises I have felt so much better. Words cannot express my gratitude for this well thought out and instructional video tutorial on foam rolling. God bless you!

This video is so helpful with my back pain and muscle relaxation , I am so thankful ❤️💖🌹
I finished my yoga practice and realised terrible lower back pain, very strange as I'm very cautious about my lumbar spine. I decided to release the pain foam rolling and looked up YT and found your amazing tutorial. I can't express the relief I got from your video. Calm, soothing voice and such an informative video. My gratitude to this beautifully explained video 💞😊
Just did the first exercise and it relieved pain immediately...thank you

Thank you! I feel better already after doing your video.
I followed right along with you and OMG thank you. I ordered my roller off amazon and didn’t know quite how to use it. This was fantastic !
Amazing to hear, faeriespirit and so glad you found this video useful! Thanks for sharing your feedback and namaste =)
Thanks a lot! This is my very first time using the roller! Feeling good!
I used the roller part of an endo board and it worked just fine. Interested to try other varieties of rollers though. Thank you Ashton!
It was my periformus that was so tight, thanks a lot!
I suffer from Advanced Arthritis of the Lower Spine and bought my first foam roller last week. I am using the TriggerPoint Grid and used your instructions and thought these exercises worked great. I'm on fifth day using the foam roller and am noticing some subtle improvements. Thank you for this tutorial.
I actually consult this video regularly, usually in the morning before I commute to work by bike.I appreciate the time and thought put into this video, one of the best for hamstring and lower back pain, thank you very much.

"You never wanna roll your joints." - What?! Well, how else are you gonna make them?
I see you sir
Hire someone, that's what snoop would do...
🤣👍
*giggle snort!*
Good one dude☮️✌️
I always come back to this video when I feel the tightness in my back/hips. Thank you so much!!!❤
Love to hear that! Thank you for practicing with us :)
Thank you so much for such professional and helpful video! After one time I already feel better! Wonderful
Thank you for the video. It really helped me to understand how to use my Foam Roller and I felt immediate relief.
You are so welcome, sandra! I'm so glad you enjoyed and found this video helpful. Thank you for watching and providing your feedback! Ashton from YogiApproved
Thanks for Sharing. Excellent video & instructor. Generally, I hate stretching as I feel it's boring. But done as said couple of times along with the instructor, and time went by very fast. You are one great teacher!
I have used these routines for a few months now and I can say its helped me with my foam rolling. I also added some (other) routines but I can honestly say this has made a big difference. CZcams algorithm has worked a treat to bring your video to me during lockdown in the UK. Thank you!
I'm so glad to hear this video has been beneficial to you!! Thank you for sharing your feedback with me! =) Ashton from YogiApproved
I like your voice. Like those narrative voice in dysney movies. Anw, great video i rlly need it for my lowbackpain release
Amazing video Ashton, thanks for simple and effective tuition. I’ve been suffering with lower back for weeks, finally took my new roller out of the bag and instantly feel so much better..! Thank you so so much 🙏, big love from the UK 🇬🇧 xx
This was such an informative and well put together foam roller session. I love my foam roller but it’s always so helpful to be reminded of placement and shown additional ways to use the foam roller. My piriformis and side glute were especially tight and I thought it was my lower back that was bothering me, crazy how connected the body really is!
Exactly! Foam rollers are not as straightforward as we sometimes expect them to be. It's nice to have a little guidance. Glad you found this helpful :)
Oh my goodness this is life changer! My back has been hurting constantly for at least 3 weeks and nothing really helped, not even exercising for lower back pain but this helped me like immediately! Im so thankful I've bought the roller today and watched your video. I can't thank you enough ❤️
Ooooh we are so happy to hear this helped with your back pain! Hope to see you in a class again
This is actually so good my back felt so relaxed
Thank you Evie! Glad it helped.
Thank you for this! I felt so relaxed after trying all the exercises! Love from the Philippines
So glad you enjoyed and felt relaxed after this video, Nico! Thank you for sharing your experience and sending love from Colorado, USA! In gratitude, Ashton from YogiApproved
I used this video to relief my stress. Thank you.
Oh my god. I've been dealing with such intense back pain since pregnancy and postpartum. My job required hiking in the wilderness with 60+ lbs everyday, as well as sleeping on the ground for as long as a week consecutively. Financially, I didn't have the option to quit when I became pregnant, so I was still doing this at six months pregnant. Now my baby is 10 months, and nothing has helped relieve the back pain. I've been to chiropractors, massage therapist and experts in holistic medicine, but with no relief. Thanks to this video, I have finally found enough pain relief to begin exercising again. Thank you for sharing!! Also, you are beautiful, and I appreciate your calm energy as well as your explanations of both cause and results. It has been so helpful.
SO AMAZING to hear, MiRaLu Ferg!! Thank you for sharing your experience and I can't express how grateful I am to hear this video has helped you. YAY!!! Wishing you all the best
This is so helpful! Lower back pain makes it really hard for me to sleep, and the first exercise helped right away. Def adding this to my nightly routine
So happy to hear this class helped you. Thank you for practicing with us.
really appreciate this. thank you
So glad this video was helpful, BVB BVB! Thank you for sharing =) Ashton from YogiApproved
Ngl I’ve had the worst back pain lately.. so I thought using a foam roller would be a good place to start. After searching about it I started to read so much about the dangers of foam rolling the lower back which made me a bit reluctant to trying it. Honestly after doing this routine once I felt so much relief. I will be continuing to follow this! Definitely recommend 🙌🏼☺️
Amazing instruction!super specific! Love it. Thank you so much
You are so welcome!
Still valid in 2021! :D This was a great introduction to foam-rolling. Thanks.
Awesome video, instant relief!! Thank you
Thank you for this tutorial. I feel more comfortable using my foam roller
Thank you! I just ordered a foam roller, on it's way and can't wait to use it now!!!yay! 🙌
Yay! You are so welcome, stephanie! Enjoy this video in conjunction with your new foam roller!
Wow this felt great! I've been doing yoga everyday for over 10 years and I've been having lower back pain recently. This was my first time using a foam roller and I wish I would have started it much sooner!
They are such a game changer...whether you're sore, not sore, injured, healthy, tense -- they are little miracle workers! 🤩
This video has been on repeat for last couple of days thanks 🙏
Glad you enjoy it! Thank you for practicing with us.

I’ve had pressure in my lower back all week. 15 mins with this workout and it’s gone!!! Thank you.
Which roller did you use? Checking Amazon for one
@@Kamishal Here is the link for the one I got. I got the 36" one. The medium density is hard enough to smash the muscle but soft enough to where it isn't extremely painful. I have 3 different ones and this one is my favorite hands down.

You are so welcome!
I tried the hip flexor rolling the other day because I've been extremely tight and suffering from very intense lower back & hip flexor pain (I'm 23 and I've had this pain since I was 15!). I rolled so intensely that I was literally sweating and seeing stars (don't worry, my PT used to do the same thing). But the next day: POOF! No hip or back pain! It's amazing what rolling can do! THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THE VIDEO!! I feel SO much better!
This is awesome! Thank you for stopping by and checking out this video tutorial ❤️ Join us for practice next time 🥰
Excellent video, immediate results. Thank you!

I injured my back in a fall. It’s slowly healing but there’s been ongoing pain and discomfort. This rolling routine has had the biggest impact on my rehab. I found rolling the periformis painful but extremely beneficial! Thank you so much for posting this video!
