Muscular lower back injuries are prevalent in most athletes. These injuries are a result of over-contracted muscle groups that are subject to rapid strains, causing them to tear. Myofascial Release (MFR) is an effective, non-abrasive technique that involves the application of pressure on certain specific points of the painful muscle. It has proven to...
