CTM Band Is Now FlossPoint
Same mechanism. Better materials. Here's what changed and why.
IF YOU USED CTM BAND, YOU ALREADY UNDERSTAND THIS
The CTM Band worked because of its mechanism — removable contact points that create directional shear at tissue interfaces during loaded movement. That hasn't changed.
What changed: after five years and 5,600+ users, the material limitations became clear. High-volume clinical use and athletes training hard enough to break things needed a more durable tool.
FlossPoint is that tool.
WHAT'S DIFFERENT
3x more durable band
Higher-tension latex that maintains compression through full range of motion. Doesn't lose grip during loaded squats, aggressive dorsiflexion, or ballistic movement.
Improved ShearPoints
Denser rubber with a textured surface. Sets into tissue more effectively and stays engaged throughout the movement — no sliding, no loss of contact during shear force application.
The result: more consistent mechanical input. More reliable tissue engagement. Better outcomes under demanding conditions.
WHAT HASN'T CHANGED
| Core mechanism | Directional shear via removable ShearPoints during loaded movement |
| Application protocol | Same placement principles — load the movement, find the restriction, wrap there |
| Use case | Tissue restrictions under load, not passive limitations |
| Clinical reasoning | Address tissue where the restriction lives — during movement |
STILL USING CTM BAND?
Keep using it if it's working. FlossPoint is the upgrade for when you need more reliable performance during high-volume clinical use or demanding training patterns.
