My body has never been happier. And my foam roller has never been more jealous.--- Adam Rosante, Celebrity Fitness & Wellness Coach, author, "The 30-Second Body."
Short of taking Jill Miller home with you, there is no better source for step-by-step self-care health-care than The Roll Model. Metamorphosis is not only for butterflies- you too can change your body into a different animal. The Roll Model is a book as robust as your health will be after reading it.--- Katy Bowman, M.S. author of "Move Your DNA: Restore Your Health Through Natural Movement"
This carefully written and beautifully illustrated book lays out a comprehensive new system of 'self-care healthcare' that's grounded in science, honed by experience, and proven by an exceptional track record of success. The Roll Model offers an invaluable resource for anyone who is ready to expand their self-care repertoire, or works to support others in sustaining optimal health.---Carol Horton, PhD, author of "Yoga PhD; co-editor of 21st Century Yoga"
Where movement meets method is where the rubber hits the road in any therapeutic practice and it is there that great change can take place. The Roll Model presents a concrete roadmap for pain management, body ease, and movement efficiency. Jill's energy, endless curiosity and extensive work in the areas of anatomy and yoga therapy all "rolled" into one, make her voice unique. 'Live better in your body' is a promise you can bank on when working with Jill's self-care methodology and The Roll Model may be just be the breakthrough your body has been secretly been begging for and the path toward true physical freedom.--- Brooke Siler, author of NY Times Bestseller "The Pilates Body, Your Ultimate Pilates Body Challenge, The Women's Health Big Book of Pilates"
I really love the 'live better in your body' part of the promise of this book--it should be a priority for everyone. And I think Jill Miller's approach to self-massage is excellent. One of my personal goals is always expansion--becoming more open and more flexible, both physically as well as mentally. I often think that where the body goes, the mind follows. And a flexible body--one that can really move--can go farther and longer.--- Gabrielle Reece, former pro beach volleyball player and certified trainer
