Compression Band Therapy

Functional Movement Specialists in Salt Lake

What we do?

While relatively new in the athletic and therapeutic realms, Compression Band Therapy has swiftly gained recognition as a valuable soft tissue mobility treatment. Its benefits, including pain reduction, enhanced range of motion, and injury prevention, are widely acknowledged. This technique utilizes elastic resistance bands to apply pressure, strategically restricting blood flow to targeted muscle groups or joints. Guided by your FMT movement specialist, you’ll engage in tailored motion exercises to maximize effectiveness.

Following the completion of exercises and stretches, your functional movement specialist will then remove the resistance band, allowing blood to flood into the area to provide increased oxygen and nutrients to the muscles and joints. Some of the most common areas of treatment are:
  • Quadriceps
  • Hamstrings
  • Ankles
  • Shoulders
  • Triceps
  • Biceps
  • Elbows
  • Knees
  • Lower legs

Compression band therapy is a technique that involves applying pressure using elastic bands to specific muscle groups or joints to enhance blood flow, aid recovery, and reduce soreness.

By strategically applying pressure, compression band therapy increases blood flow and nutrient delivery to targeted areas, promoting faster healing and improved mobility.

Some benefits include reduced muscle soreness, improved range of motion, enhanced recovery from injuries, and prevention of muscle strains.

Compression band therapy can benefit athletes recovering from intense workouts, individuals seeking relief from chronic pain or injuries, and anyone looking to improve flexibility and mobility.

When performed correctly and under the guidance of a trained professional, compression band therapy is generally safe. However, it’s essential to use appropriate pressure levels and techniques to avoid injury.

The frequency of compression band therapy sessions can vary depending on individual needs and goals. Some may benefit from regular sessions several times a week, while others may find monthly sessions sufficient for maintenance.
