Blood Flow Restriction Therapy (BFRT) is a technique that combines low intensity exercise with blood flow occlusion, in turn producing results similar to heavy weight training. Dr. May’s goal with BFRT is to enable patients to make greater strength gains while lifting lighter loads. By reducing the overall stress on the limb and body, Dr. May is able to help her patients prevent potentially dangerous stress on tissue that may be healing from a recent injury or surgery, while reaping the benefits of strength training.
