Description

Blood Flow Restriction (BFR) training is an innovative, evidence-based technique that allows patients to achieve strength, hypertrophy, and aerobic gains using low loads and short-duration workouts—making it ideal for busy chiropractic and rehab settings. In this practical course, Dr. Donald DeFabio delivers a clinician-friendly approach to integrating BFR safely and effectively into your treatment protocols.

You'll learn how BFR induces relative hypoxia to stimulate muscle adaptation, making it an excellent tool for deconditioned patients, those recovering from injury, and even athletes seeking performance enhancement. Dr. DeFabio breaks down the types of BFR systems, discusses indications and contraindications, and shows you how to design and implement BFR programs you can start using immediately.

In this course, you’ll learn to:

Understand the physiology and benefits of BFR training

Identify patient populations best suited for BFR, from post-injury to elite athletes

Review different BFR systems and how to apply them in your practice

Design safe, effective BFR exercise protocols for immediate clinical use

Boost outcomes with less load—and help patients build strength, safely and efficiently.
