COLD Myofascial Compression Techniques for RECOVERY

PRESENTED BY: CASSIDY PHILLIPS

Experience the benefits of cryotherapy with MCT for enhanced recovery and regen-
eration. Cold compression with range of motion immediately after exercise will decrease the
negative effects of inflammation and in turn, reduce muscle soreness and muscle spasms for
any level of athlete. If used appropriately for injury, the cold sensation can override the pain
sensation (pain gate theory) and prevent the development of future muscle imbalances.

Myofascial Compression Techniques (MCT) for R ecovery


Myofascial Compression Techniques (MCT) is Trigger Point Performance Therapys rev-
olutionary form of self myofascial release that systematically restores tissue elasticity, fluidity,
and function resulting in pain reduction, injury prevention, and performance enhancement.
MCT is defined by building compression into the targeted muscle with a TP device. Once
compressed, the targeted muscle and limb is taken through a range of motion. Once this is
defined, we then take the distal limb through its own pattern of movement replicating every-
day functions. The compressed muscle tissue will produce an inhibitory response in the mus-
cle spindle while also addressing associated myofascial dysfunctions such as trigger points,
adhesions, and other muscular challenges. This process also opens up neurological pathways
allowing for greater muscular proprioception. Deep nasal breathes work to relax the muscle
while oxygenating the blood. MCT also changes the muscles viscosity allowing
for more fluid movement.

Cryo-Compression Therapy (CCT)


Cryotherapy is a therapeutic method in which the temperature of the skin is decreased
to illicit a pain reducing response. Using the cold roller, Trigger Point Performance combines
MCT with cryotherapy for the best in recovery and injury treatment. You dont get better from
your workout, you get better from your recovery.
