A foam roller is used for the isolation of the gluteals. Self-myofascial massage — one of the exercises therapies in San Mateo — can be highly effective in correcting the hip muscles used (or not used) during extended sitting. Because we, in today's modern world, spend the majority of our days in seated positions, we use our hips less than nature intended. The result? Posterior hip and gluteal musculature become imbalanced; some muscles remain overworked, and others disappear through atrophy. The foam roller, when employed on the glutes can rejuvenate the area and keep it "active."

The single-leg squat is intended to correlate the balance, coordination, and weight transfer necessary to address (ideally correct) movement deviations. A single-leg squat slows down the movement in the hip and leg, allowing the glutes to extend and return the body to its original, standing position. It is critical not to rush this exercise; timing helps the body "remember," through muscle memory, the proper transference of weight, i.e., that which is used while walking.

These two therapies, commonly used as San Mateo corrective exercises, are just two of the numerous exercises therapies in San Mateo.
