Flossing in Wendake

Discover flossing at L'Éveil du Loup, a temporary compression technique used to support certain mobility, recovery, and muscle-release needs.

What is flossing?

Flossing is a technique that uses an elastic band to create temporary compression around a muscle or joint. This compression is applied for a short period, generally in combination with appropriate movements. The goal is to support the body in working on mobility, release, or recovery. Elastic-band therapy may be used as part of massage therapy, physiotherapy, or sports care. It is not a traditional massage, but a complementary technique that can be incorporated into a targeted session.
