Struggling to unwind after a long day? You're not alone, and science might have a simple solution: relaxation massage before bedtime.

A 2023 study published in Healthcare titled The Impact of Relaxation Massage Prior to Bedtime on Sleep Quality examined whether a simple massage session could help people sleep better. The results were clear: massage significantly improved both sleep quality and sleep efficiency, even for individuals who experienced sleep difficulties.

Key findings from the study:

• Participants who received a relaxation massage before bed reported falling asleep faster.

• They experienced fewer nighttime awakenings and longer durations of uninterrupted sleep.

• The massage appeared to activate the body’s parasympathetic nervous system, which promotes rest, recovery, and calmness.

These results are especially relevant for people who deal with tension in the back, hips, or legs — areas known to contribute to discomfort that interferes with restful sleep.

The Movelio Bed Roller is designed to deliver the kind of deep, calming pressure shown to support better relaxation and recovery, right before bed. Unlike active foam rolling, it lets your body fully relax while applying controlled, soothing pressure to the muscles that need it most.
