Foam roll upper back is an exercise that targets the traps. It is a selfmyofascial release (SMR) exercise that can help to relieve muscle tension and pain in the upper back. To perform the foam roll upper back, lie on your back with your knees bent and feet flat on the floor. Place a foam roller under your upper back, just below your shoulder blades. Slowly roll back and forth, applying pressure to the muscles as you go. Hold each position for a few seconds and repeat as needed.
