Not a dumb question! It's used for do-it-yourself massage. It's like a deep tissue massage for the legs in particular, but also feels wonderful on the back. It can be a little intense and therefore painful at first, but it's a wonderful tool to release tension in the legs and hips, especially during flexibility training. I love my foam roller! Veena has done lessons on here about how to use one. :)

Nah, it's not dumb and your not the first person to ask that here! You can do a lot with it, from massage, to stretching and strength. As Danielle, mentioned there are lessons here on how to use it for massage and stretching.
