DRIVING PERFORMANCE GOLF
Blood Flow Restriction
Have you had a knee operation and it’s not quite recovering how you expected?
Have you had pain at the front of your knee for a while and it’s not improved?
Blood Flow Restriction training may help you…
What to expect:
- In your first appointment, Pat will ask you questions about your knee history
- This is followed by some movement and strength tests based on your answers.
- Based on the above and a health screening questionnaire we will discuss whether Blood Flow Restriction would be worth starting.
- If it’s appropriate, we will apply a tourniquet cuff around the top of the thigh of the effected knee.
- We wait for the machine to calibrate with the cuff, which involves the tourniquet inflating on your thigh and gauging the right pressure for the treatment.
- If we’re ready to go, you perform exercise in session with the inflated tourniquet on.
- It’s very stimulating, but has a continued body of evidence behind it’s benefit of building muscle and reducing pain
