As I’m sure most seasoned Old Cityzens have seen, the VooDoo Floss bands from Rogue Fitness are miracle workers. We use these bands for a whole host of purposes, but they are especially great at helping to fix nagging joint pain. From knees to elbows, shoulders to ankles, these nifty little (and perfectly portable) bands are a must have in any home mobility arsenal.
What makes them so great? I’m happy you asked…
As discussed these bands are extremely versatile, but in general they help in 3 major areas. The quotes below are from Dr. Kelly Starrett’s (he created the VooDoo Floss Band) NYT bestselling book, Becoming a Supple Leopard
- “Wrapping a band around a joint or chunk of scar tissue and introducing movement creates a global effect – restoring sliding-surface function to the underlying banded tissues – and the band bulk creates flexion-gapping force at the joint, which can help restore range of motion to the joint.”
- Also, “when you release the compression blood flows into the poorly saturated joints and tissues.” This VooDoo floss band is designed to help, primarily, with these first two issues.
- “VooDoo flossing also happens to be on e of the best methods for dealing with a swollen joint or swollen tissues…by compressing the joint, you push swelling back into the lymphatic system where it can be drained from the body.” If this is your primary goal, this VooDoo floss band is designed to place emphasis on this effect.
Lastly, “VooDoo flossing will help restore sliding surfaces to matted-down tissue, resolve joint pain, and radically improve muscle contraction.”
How do you use them? Let the Dr. explain:
