How to Use a Foam Roller to Release Your IT Band

[BarefootJax]

My ITB is SOOOO painful when I try this. Nearly too painful to be able to do it. I use the front foot to try and take the pressure off. I shall keep on trying with this and hope it works. Thanks for the video

I have struggled with IT band syndrome for months, and finally I found out that massage works the best for me. I am running again.

Thanks for the video!

I have never seen this b4, and, have done Yoga for over 20 years- this works very well to let off tension in the IT band...Bravo! W

do i need to do this after every run? and how long should i do this just until its not stiff or what?

[sparkpeople]

I personally do this a little bit each day. After each run IS a good idea--just for a few minutes. When you find a spot that is sore or tight, linger there and the pressure on the roller will help release it. Hope that helps.
