Lortondale Blood flow restriction training is an innovative physical therapy treatment that combines low intensity exercise with limited blood flow into a limb to achieve high intensity exercise effects. This is done through the use of an external device applied to the upper portion of an arm or leg, which allows blood to flow into the limb, but does not allow blood to flow out. This creates an environment in the arm or leg that promotes gains in muscle size and strength without requiring heavy loads or resistance. This form of exercise training has been shown to be safe and effective for high level competitive athletes, weekend warriors, and the elderly population alike. Blood flow restriction can be used in all types of physical therapy cases, including post-surgery to prevent a decrease in muscle size from disuse, muscle or tendon injuries, joint sprains, and even osteoarthritis cases to promote muscle strength gains.
