Me too. Just be sure to keep the roller parallel to the spine when rolling your back and perpendicular when mobilizing side and front of ribs.

Hmm, parallel to the spine? I put it perpendicular to the spine and roll on my back, up and down. As seen in most of these vids:

Cool, looks like both orientations are beneficial. Thanks.

Yeah I use the other orientation for stretching the chest. But in that case I use a wider, softer yoga bolster.

Default I took the melt method class.

Hi ,
I have been using the pink roller for almost a year for my ribs per Dr. Ando.I bought it at optp.com. I love it. Recently I took a Master melt Method Class to learn how to use my roller on other parts of my body-I highly recommend it and I bought the little balls (for feet and hands- it comes with a dvd) and the book. the book has all the exercises in it. It helps mobilize different parts of the body without hurting it. It has alot to do with healing the nervous system and hydrating your tissues. It has alot in common with Feldenkries. I like the stretch and acupressure you get with it. I also use a pinky ball on a stick to get into smaller areas like my armpits.

You can get more info on meltmethod.com and see if there are any classes in your area-but the book is pretty self explanatory. Be careful with the neck one though I hurt myself doing it.
