Silk band

The terms Flossing or Flossband were only recently known in Germany by a few athletes and therapists in the fields of powerlifting, weightlifting and cross-training, where athletes wrap or band their limbs. In collaboration with renowned sports physiotherapist Sven Kruse, we have developed these Flossbands with different levels of resistance and 3 different band widths, based on his EASYFLOSSING concept. During Flossing, the Flossband, about 2 m long, is tightly wrapped around the part of the body and joint being treated, with a thickness of 4 to 7 times that of a medium-sized exercise band. Flossing speeds up the recovery of various injuries and releases tissue adhesions. With different application options, the musculature is put under pressure using the Flossband. Ideally, this is done while the wrapped limb is in motion. The advantage is that different exercises can be performed under compression, relieving the tissue and/or joint. When the Flossband is then released, the congestion is also relieved and the tissue is irrigated. The band is available in different widths and strengths. Why are there differences in width and thickness? Why 4 different bands strengths? The different resistance values allow for specific application values and to specifically target different layers of tissue. Therapy series specifically adapted to the intensity are also possible. Moreover, this takes into account the different tolerance limits of patients. Thickness of the floss bands: Green: 1.1 mm; Blue: 1.3 mm; Purple: 1.6 mm; Grey: 1.8 mm. Why 3 different band widths? These 4 different band strengths are available not only in a standard width of 5 cm but also in narrow (2.5 cm) and wide (7.5 cm) versions. This allows for differentiated application on joints or body parts of different sizes (hands, feet, knees, elbows, hips, chest).
