New rehab technique aims to speed achilles recovery

NCT ID NCT04104126

Summary

This study is testing whether adding blood flow restriction therapy to standard physical therapy helps people recover from Achilles tendon injuries. Researchers will work with 57 adults to see if this approach improves leg strength and reduces pain during rehabilitation. The therapy involves wearing a special cuff that briefly limits blood flow while doing gentle exercises.
