💪 Game-changer alert for neurologic rehab!
Blood flow restriction (BFR) training is opening new doors for our patients. By using low-load exercises with reduced blood flow, we're helping individuals with neurologic conditions build strength safely and effectively—even when traditional heavy resistance training isn't an option.
The benefits?
✨ Muscle hypertrophy with lighter loads (20-30% 1RM)
✨ Reduced joint stress and fatigue
✨ Improved functional outcomes
✨ Enhanced neuroplasticity potential
Whether you're working with stroke survivors, patients with MS, incomplete SCI, or other neurologic conditions, BFR can be a valuable tool in your rehab toolkit when applied with proper training and precautions.
