Yamuna Body Rolling now exclusively at Franco's!



Who is Yamuna?

What is Yamuna Body Rolling?
Yamuna took all the basic theories and practice and translated them to a ball. The ball becomes the hands of the therapist and the persons weight creates the traction, movement and release on the ball. The result is what she calls YAMUNA BODY ROLLING. This is a very powerful self -fixing and maintaining tool that everyone can do regardless of his age or physical limitations.

In a Yamuna Body Rolling class one learns to work on each part of the body, rolling the appropriate ball from the buttocks to the calf; from the tail bone up to the skull; from the abdomen up to the collar bone; from the collar bone out to the shoulder joint; and so on.

BENEFITS

Increased range of motion
