FAQs
General
A: Yamuna Body Rolling (pronounced YAH-moo-nah) is a self-maintenance healing system by Yamuna Zake (30+ years). It uses experiential anatomy to help you align structurally, resolve pain patterns, prevent injury, and maintain proper function. With correct education and consistent practice, results come faster—remember: a ball is just a ball without the right education.
A: Your practitioner guides you through a bodywork session using body weight, breath, and a 6–10" air-filled ball. You’ll learn routines to align the body, break repetitive-motion injuries, release pain patterns, lengthen muscles, and create joint space—beyond basic stretching or foam rolling. Expect to leave feeling lighter, freer, taller, and more mobile.
