What is Blood Flow Restriction Training and the Benefits of BFR?
Blood Flow Restriction (BFR) training is a cornerstone of our treatment approach at Back in Motion Physical Therapy & Performance. This innovative technique involves the application of pressure to the upper or lower limbs during low-intensity exercise, significantly enhancing muscle strength and hypertrophy. Our therapists are highly trained in BFR, using it to optimize your rehabilitation and performance. By strategically restricting blood flow, BFR training allows you to achieve the benefits of high-intensity exercise with lower loads, making it ideal for individuals recovering from injury or surgery. This approach helps restore normal movement patterns and accelerates your recovery, allowing you to get back to your daily activities and favorite sports with greater ease and confidence.
