Two cylinders for the price of one!

The name SMR massaging roller means “releasing our own muscle bandages”. Proper use of it is a quick and effective solution against muscle fever, it can help avoid muscle problems, it supports the dissolution of connective tissue deposits. During the use of the roller, the muscle bandages, ie the tissue that nets, connects, shapes and supports the muscle, are massaged. 21st century medicine has begun to pay attention to the importance of keeping our muscle lines inflexible, as many problems can be prevented through their maintenance: injuries, pain, and limited movement in each joint can be prevented.

While releasing muscle bandages, try the SMR massage roller:

- To relieve muscle cramps
- To prevent muscle and joint problems
- To stretch the muscles
- For relaxation
- To increase blood circulation
- To dissolve connective tissue deposits
- Excellent for pilates, yoga, fitness, physiotherapy

What do you get with the Vivamax SMR cylinder set?

Two 33 cm long cylinders, one ribbed and the other smooth. Both cylinders can be used to release muscle bandages in fitness and physiotherapy. If you want to massage your numb limbs, we recommend using an outer roller.

- Ribbed cylinder: 33 * 13.5 cm
- Roller with a smooth surface: 33 * 10 cm

About SMR rollers

Rollers of different sizes, hardnesses and surfaces can be purchased in the market. Rollers with a harder and more crumbly pattern also affect deeper fabrics, with even devices with a smooth surface more likely to affect the top layers. There are also rollers where multiple surfaces are alloyed. There is also a difference in the quality of the rollers. The most professional rollers get a hard, plastic frame inside, and the spongy top layer is attached to it. These are much more durable. These types of rollers can be used for years.

- The ribbed cylinder:

Smooth, square, and striped surfaces were formed on the outer cylinder because these shapes most closely resembled the patterns of a man’s palm, fingertips, and fingers. This gives the muscles a wide variety of pressure stimuli.
The outer cylinder can be used not only to relax and train muscle bandages, but also to be excellent instead of massage!

- Basics of SMR rolling:

The essence of SMR rolling is to relieve tensions in the muscles, muscle bandages and connective tissue. The muscle regains its optimal performance, it regenerates more easily, injuries can be prevented. SMR roller exercises are simple and easy to learn, regardless of age and sporting background.
The connective tissue (Latin: fascia) is “the organ of form”. The muscles do the movement. The muscle band covers and controls the muscles. If tension appears in the muscle band that is not released, the muscle band cannot function properly. Connective tissue is everywhere in our body, it connects everything. It has several layers that intertwine. Its superficial layer can be thought of as the “stocking of the body”. If this body stocking is twisted, twisted, worn out, damaged during improper use, our muscles will immediately signal. Our movements will change and become stiffer, our posture will deteriorate, we will have a harder time regenerating. The muscle band wraps the muscles like a membrane. The muscle band connects, surrounds, shapes the muscles, ensures the strength and flexibility of the muscle. Muscle regenerates more easily and faster when the muscle band is flexible.
With SMR massage we can eliminate the tensions accumulated in the connective tissue and muscle bandages. During the exercises, we perform slow, simple movements using the tools. The basic exercises are performed with the SMR roller, SMR stick or SMR ball, as appropriate. SMR System practices have a similar mechanism of action as massage. Massage not only improves the metabolism of muscles and connective tissue. We can easily achieve the optimal muscle balance, as a result of which the quality of movement and posture is improved. It ensures the strength and flexibility of the muscle. Muscle regenerates more easily and faster when the muscle band is flexible.
Stress relief has a direct effect on the nervous system.
We can initiate the body’s regenerative and self-healing processes, which have both analgesic and detoxifying effects. Improvements in mechanical stimuli, nervous system effects, and metabolism all increase body awareness, which is essential for athletes. The joy of lighter, painless movement results in well-being and clear thinking.

- How does the SRM cylinder affect the muscles?

The roller works by applying our own weight to the device in the area where we want to massage our body. The cylinder must be rolled slowly, moved left and right, pressure and weight applied to create the compression effect, i.e. the pressure stimulus. When an area is pressurized, the blood supply to the muscle fiber is blocked. When the pressure is released (when we roll the given
