World innovation at Kübler Sport! Flossband by SanctbandThe terms flossing or flossband were only known to a few athletes and therapists in the powerlifting, weightlifting, and cross fit training areas in Germany until recently, where athletes wrap or bind their extremities.When flossing, a 5cm wide and 2m long latex band is tightly wrapped around the body part or joint to be treated, approximately 4-7 times the thickness of a medium-sized exercise band.
- Firm wrapping/compression on joints and muscles
- Fixation pressure affects pain receptors and fascia
- Can be used prophylactically and acutely
- Positive effects on involved joint structures, fascia, and receptors
Mode of action:
Through various application possibilities, the muscles are put under pressure using the band. The high fixation pressure inhibits (suppresses) pain receptors and deeper fascia, allowing adhesions and weak links to be released. Ideally, this is done while moving the wrapped extremity. When the flossband is loosened, the congestion also dissipates and the tissue is flushed out. This alleviates almost any type of pain.
Why 4 different band strengths?
The 4-set, developed in collaboration with the renowned sports physiotherapist Sven Kruse, allows for a differentiated reach of various deep tissue layers through specific application values. Additionally, it can accommodate different tolerance levels of patients.
