Flossing technique

What is the flossing technique?

During treatment elastic rubber bands are wrapped around the damaged problem area for a maximum of 2 minutes, during which time the region is moved. Repeat this three times maximum. Using this technique we act on the muscles, joints, muscle blisters. The ribbons are available in different lengths and widths, and in different colours depending on the manufacturer. The ribbon is reusable, washable in warm water with a neutral detergent and has a long life.

The effect of flossing therapy

• Pain relief
• Arthritis increasing the range of movement
• Reducing swelling
• Muscle buoy release of sedimentation
• Relaxation of scars
• Faster regeneration

Extremely good for rehabilitation after surgery and injuries, and tennis elbow and spur in the management of.

How does flossing therapy work?

1. Relieves pain

The tape is applied with a small pull, so the we put pressure on tissues, thereby stimulating pressure-sensing receptors, which can block pain-sensing receptors. This reduces the patient's pain sensation during the treatment, which is extremely important in the case of a major painful movement reduction following an accident!

2. Reduced swelling

Can be spectacular in the reduction of swelling after the treatment, but this is only temporary, only with a long-lasting treatment can we achieve an oedema-free state!

3. Sponge effect

The tape is applied at a relatively faster pace, so that the accumulated slag can be removed at a rapid rate. Unwind the tape at a fast pace so that the nutrient-rich fluid can flow in at a rapid rate, allowing improves the nutrient supply to tissues.

4. Release downloads

Movement during flossing treatment effectively helps to displace adherent tissues, so that you can unblock the downloads.
