What is Yamuna Body Rolling™?
It's Health, Fitness & Massage rolled into one

Yamuna Body Rolling™ is a revolutionary approach to health and fitness using balls designed exclusively for this practice. It consists of a series of routines using 6 to 10-inch balls. Unlike other ball exercises, YBR goes far beyond random movement and stretch. It allows you to work specific muscles in detail, to create suppleness in tight areas and optimize range of motion.

Yamuna Body Rolling™ reeducates muscles and stimulates bone, creating positive, permanent changes in the body.

How Does it Work?

Yamuna Body Rolling works the way a hands-on practitioner works -only using a ball. The ball replaces hands as it moves on muscles to stretch them, dislodge tension and discomfort, increase blood flow, and promote healing.

Lying over the ball, you literally roll your body out almost like dough, stretching and elongating your muscles. The YBR routines follow specific sequences that match the body's own logic and order. Starting where each muscle begins, at its origin, you roll toward where it attaches to the point called its insertion.

The Yamuna Body Rolling practice has earned respect from chiropractors, physical therapists, Yoga instructors, Pilates and Gyrotonic instructors, massage therapists, bodyworkers, fitness instructors and dance teachers.

   

Who Should Roll?

You! Whether you're young or old, a fitness buff or a couch potato, rolling with a YBR Ball can help you feel better, more vibrant, more alive! You'll have a ball toning, strengthening, and realigning your body.

Take it from Yamuna herself:
"This cutting-edge fitness practice will make you leaner, longer and stronger. Yamuna Body Rolling will also preventand fix all sorts of body problems. It's a workout, a massage, and a chiropractic session all in one!"

You just roll with it - using different-sized balls for different parts of your body. There are office routines that prevent headaches, back, neck, and shoulder tension; repetitive stress syndromes, such as carpal tunnel, that result from hours of sitting at your desk or computer.

Use YBR while on the job to work your back, legs, chest, shoulders, and neck - without having to make extra time for it after work. It effectively eliminates the problem we all have: not enough time!

Moreover, for people on the go, YBR is an easy traveling companion for staying in good shape. You simply deflate the ball and take it with you when you're on the road. Use YBR on planes, trains, in your car, in hotels, to prevent jetlag and to keep your body from feeling sluggish and stiff.
