Roller Massager+ Shortened Shin Release

Exercise Instructions

Step One

Long-sitting on the side of a table or bench, grasp both ends of the Thera-Band Roller Massager+ so that ridged roller is positioned across the outside of the shin of the leg to be rolled. Toes are pulled up towards nose.

Step Two

Gently roll the Massager+ up and down along the path of the anterior tibialis muscle, controlling the depth through controlling the amount of pressure placed on the tissue. Be sure to roll over the muscle belly not the shin bone. In general, shorter strokes and sustained pressure in this shortened position will work deeper muscle tightness and knots.
