WHO WE ARE

In 2007, BLACKROLL® was developed in Germany by Jürgen Dürr. Two years later, in 2009, BLACKROLL® was awarded the prestigious Physio prize  for the “product with the greatest range of benefits for its users”. Experts in the sports- and medical sector quickly came to learn about the wide scope of benefits that BLACKROLL® offered to treat muscle pain and fascia issues.

As of 2012, BLACKROLL® firmly established itself on the market, and got well supported and recommended by leaders in the health - sports and therapeutic industry. In the autumn of 2013 the Jürgen Dürr restructured the company BLACKROLL®  in order to enable and facilitate further growth.

WHAT ARE FASCIAE

The musculature functions because its being held together by an essential but often overlooked tissue: the fasciae. This connective tissue surrounds and permeates every muscle, bone, nerve and organ; simply said it’s the stuff that keeps us together.

Fascia is comparable to a three-dimensional full body suit, which forms a network of supporting structures. Research proves that the fasciae have a great influence on our posture, quality of movement, pain perception, and muscles. These are the elements of our body on which self myofascial release, or self massage, has an influence to prevent muscle pain and improve the recovery ability of muscles.

The fascia theme is increasingly gaining ground within the realm of scientific research and is supported by many doctors and therapists.
