Blood Flow Restriction Therapy

At Maza Movement and Recovery, we utilize Blood Flow Restriction (BFR) Therapy to help clients build muscle, improve strength, and recover more efficiently without having to lift heavy or load painful joints.

Whether you're an athlete recovering from injury, an active adult returning to movement, or simply looking to boost your performance, BFR is a science-backed tool that safely accelerates results.

BFR therapy involves the use of a specialized cuff placed around the arm or leg to partially restrict blood flow to the working muscle. This technique mimics the effects of heavy resistance training while using significantly lighter weights creating a powerful environment for muscle growth and recovery.

BFR is ideal for clients who:

  • Are recovering from surgery (ACL, rotator cuff, meniscus, etc.)

  • Have weight-bearing limitations or joint pain

  • Want to regain muscle after injury or inactivity

  • Are looking to increase strength without loading joints

  • Are athletes seeking an edge in recovery and performance

BFR is not just a trendy tool, it's backed by decades of research in sports medicine and rehabilitation. At Maza Movement and Recovery, we implement BFR as part of a complete performance rehab approach to help you return to your sport, your lifestyle, and your goals with confidence.

Our therapists are trained in safe, evidence-based application of BFR and will always integrate it into a personalized plan that matches your needs and stage of recovery or performance. You don’t always have to lift heavy to get stronger. With BFR therapy, we help you build muscle, restore movement, and protect your joints so you can keep doing what you love.
