Dr. Jim Stray-Gunderson and Dave Asprey discuss blood flow restriction training, a method that can double your healing rate compared to traditional physical therapy. The technique uses controlled pressure to accelerate recovery while maintaining fitness during rehabilitation.
The general concept in rehab with blood flow restriction training is to exercise as much of the body's muscle as possible to get the biggest systemic effect, and then lightly in a way that doesn't negatively influence the healing structures. Do some exercise with them.
And.
And the consequence is that, number one, you stay fit in all your other structures. And number two is you optimize the rate of healing for the injured part.
So you might recover faster from doing.
This because of the systemic effects than if you had just done normal physical therapy or done nothing at all.
Yeah, absolutely. So let me.
How much faster?
Ballpark. You can say twice as fast.
All right, so. So everyone listening to this. You have an injury, it's not healing very well, so then maybe you start doing blood flow restriction.
