BLOOD FLOW RESTRICTION THERAPY IN IDAHO FALLS
Blood Flow Restriction Therapy
Blood flow restriction therapy is an innovative physical therapy technique applied to the proximal portion of a limb using a specialized tourniquet or cuff to temporarily restrict blood flow to the site while exercising. The goal is to trigger physiological changes that increase muscle strength and size, decrease muscle damage, and improve cardiovascular fitness.
Effective Blood Flow Restriction Therapy
In rehabilitation, a patient may not have the tolerance for high-intensity training as a way to regain lost muscle. BFR therapy helps patients to obtain maximum muscle growth and strength using lighter loads and lighter exercises. The therapy also expedites healing by increasing collagen synthesis and bone healing factors.
BFR therapy can benefit anyone struggling with muscle atrophy. Healthy athletes also use the technique to increase muscle strength at a lower risk of injury compared to heavy weightlifting.
If you’re looking for a treatment plan that’s safe and effective to help you recover and build muscle, contact our highly trained Blood Flow Restriction therapists at Empower PT.
