History of tissue flossing bands
• Relatively new modality
• Gained initial popularity in the weight lifting community
• Improved muscle preparation for performance
• Evidence was largely anecdotal until recently
![Page 6: Evidence Based Approach to the Use of Tissue Flossing ... Winter... · Evidence Based Approach to the Use of Tissue Flossing Bands to Improve Perceived and Actual Range of Motion](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042416/5f31d6d775ff09426511bb84/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Potential modes of action
• Gate Control Theory
• Other neurological pathways
• Myofascial Release
![Page 7: Evidence Based Approach to the Use of Tissue Flossing ... Winter... · Evidence Based Approach to the Use of Tissue Flossing Bands to Improve Perceived and Actual Range of Motion](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042416/5f31d6d775ff09426511bb84/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Myofascial Release
• Began to develop as far back as the 1940’s
• First named in 1981
• Can be accomplished by manually mobilizing tissues or placing them on a stretch
![Page 8: Evidence Based Approach to the Use of Tissue Flossing ... Winter... · Evidence Based Approach to the Use of Tissue Flossing Bands to Improve Perceived and Actual Range of Motion](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042416/5f31d6d775ff09426511bb84/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Myofascial Release
• Current level of evidence ranges from low to high
• Leads to difficulties in making conclusive statements
• Shows a lot of promise for clinical application
![Page 9: Evidence Based Approach to the Use of Tissue Flossing ... Winter... · Evidence Based Approach to the Use of Tissue Flossing Bands to Improve Perceived and Actual Range of Motion](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042416/5f31d6d775ff09426511bb84/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Potential modes of action
• Gate Control Theory
• Other neurological pathways
• Myofascial Release
• Blood reperfusion
![Page 10: Evidence Based Approach to the Use of Tissue Flossing ... Winter... · Evidence Based Approach to the Use of Tissue Flossing Bands to Improve Perceived and Actual Range of Motion](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042416/5f31d6d775ff09426511bb84/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Blood Flow Restriction
• Occludes venous blood flow while restricting arterial inflow
• Application of some form of tourniquet
• Reduces oxygen delivery to muscle cells during exercise
![Page 11: Evidence Based Approach to the Use of Tissue Flossing ... Winter... · Evidence Based Approach to the Use of Tissue Flossing Bands to Improve Perceived and Actual Range of Motion](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042416/5f31d6d775ff09426511bb84/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Blood Flow Restriction
• Creates anaerobic environment
• May promote muscle hypertrophy
• Initiating cell signaling
• Hormonal changes
• Preferential type II muscle fiber activation
• Safe treatment option
![Page 12: Evidence Based Approach to the Use of Tissue Flossing ... Winter... · Evidence Based Approach to the Use of Tissue Flossing Bands to Improve Perceived and Actual Range of Motion](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042416/5f31d6d775ff09426511bb84/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
