Thanks for this Gary. I’ve come across similar exercises via yoga classes. My teacher recently introduced us to massage balls, about the size and firmness of “doggie” balls, and a foam roller, 45 cm long, 16 cm diameter. They can be quite painful to use but I’m sure they are helping (no pain, no gain!), especially in the fascia of the glutes, thighs and the side chest.
Almost 20 years ago my previous yoga teacher managed to do a miraculous (overnight) cure of my chronic lower back pain just by using words to help me release the muscles which my subconscious mind had been holding too tight for decades.
The balls and foam rollers sounds a lot like the "MELT method" of fascia relelase. I find words powerful too,, and using both Block Therapy, and a form of talk therapy/hypnotherpuetic has allowed me to fast track my healing and reduce drug burden.
