When it comes to BFR, our SmartTools SmartCuffs® offer unrivaled craftsmanship and quality, providing unparalleled performance and results.
Made in the USA, SmartCuffs® are registered with the FDA as a Class 1 Medical Device.
BFR training typically requires some form of easily doable but effective exercise personalized to the patient’s rehabilitation needs.
Through BFR, patients are better able to move actively, improve function, and improve independence and quality of life.

BFR training uses specifically designed cuffs to control the amount of oxygen available to a limb, replicating a high-intensity environment. If a patient lifts light weights combined with BFR, they will get similar results seen with heavy lifting. BFR is even more beneficial during rehabilitation because it enables a patient to exercise effectively, which is key to triggering tissue adaptation and recovery.

The low threshold required to use BFR combined with the potential benefits makes it a definite go-to for rehab.
It offers enormous benefits for many musculoskeletal injuries, including bone fractures, muscle strains, post-surgical tendinous or ligamentous interventions, meniscus repair, Achilles or Patellar tendon repairs, and total joint replacement. If a patient needs simple but effective rehabilitation, BFR is an excellent first step.

For many patients, the psychological buy-in of BFR is more immediate compared to other modalities used in rehabilitation (e.g., STM, electrical stimulation, ultrasound, joint mobilization, etc.).
Too often, after 4-6 weeks of repetition with other methods and little to show for it, patients tend to question the results and whether anything is actually happening. They can’t see a tendon being restructured, tissue being laid down, or their brain’s neural network labeling sensations as safe or threatening every time they do a squat. So, patient compliance can become challenging.

Our BFR products feature our patent-pending SmartCuffs®, a true game-changer in the world of rehab, sports training, and general fitness. To deal with a lack of consistency in BFR training, we developed the SmartCuffs. Our device uses a palm sphygmomanometer, allowing you to know exactly how much pressure you’re applying to the Cuffs.
Our facility maintains an FDA Establishment Registration and device listing for the products. You can trust that our SmartCuffs® are designed and engineered to the highest quality. They offer unparalleled safety when BFR training.
Personalized Pressure feature: The same mode found in the standard model allows for fast, hassle free personalized pressure calculation. With the built-in pressure sensor and on-board computer, it will calculate and set the optimal pressure for your body. There is no need for an external doppler probe or hand pump. The unit will do everything for you.
IPC modes: Built into the software, these modes can be easily performed pre & post activity by the user.
Li-Ion battery: Gone are the days of using NiCad batteries that self-discharge and burnout after a year. Both SmartCuffs® and SmartCuffs® Pro models feature the latest Li-Ion batteries to withstand rigorous use and provide fast recharging capabilities.
Compatibility: The SmartCuffs® and SmartCuffs® PRO pumps will work with our previous SmartCuffs® models from 2018- 2020.

When mechanical stress is not tolerated, we can turn to metabolic stress to improve muscle.
So, what is metabolic stress? It’s that terrible muscle burn you feel when you’re working really hard for long periods of time. But again, a common issue with treating injuries is that patients cannot tolerate excessive exercise volume, which is typically needed to cause metabolic stress. So that’s where BFR excels compared to traditional physical therapy because it can initiate metabolic stress with minimal exercise volume.

According to an article by Ozaki et al. 2015, the hypertrophic effect on muscle via metabolic stress is significantly exaggerated when you combine exercise with BFR.
The true beauty of BFR is that you can exercise with really low mechanical loads (as low as 20% 1RM) and still elicit muscle hypertrophy. The best part is, it doesn’t take much exercise volume as BFR induces metabolic stress relatively fast due to the restricted blood flow increasing muscle oxygen demand, so muscles end up having to work really hard in a short time period leading to earlier onset of fatigue. Earlier onset of fatigue means less total exercise volume, with faster results.
