"SMR appears to have a positive effect on range of motion and soreness/fatigue following exercise."

International Journal of Sports and Physio Therapy 2015;1:203–21 "FR, SS and FR+SS all lead to acute increases in flexibility and FR+SS appears to have an additive effect in comparison with FR alone. All three interventions (FR, SS and FR+SS) have time courses that lasted less than 10 minutes."
