Blood Flow Restriction (BFR) Therapy
Blood Flow Restriction (BFR) therapy is a cutting-edge approach to rehabilitation and strength training that utilizes inflatable cuffs to restrict blood flow to a specific limb during low-intensity exercise. Think of it as a way to “trick” your muscles into working harder at lower weights. By limiting oxygen availability, BFR stimulates your body’s natural growth factors, promoting muscle strength and endurance gains similar to those achieved with high-intensity workouts – but with significantly less stress on your joints and tissues! At ClareMotion Physical Therapy, we use the MAD-UP Pro Device, which offers a safe and customizable blood flow restriction program for the prevention and management of muscular deficit by combining localized pressure on a limb through a cuff and low-intensity resistance exercise (10-30% 1RM).
