Video Summary

In this video, Julie Kramer, an assistant athletic trainer with the Kansas City Chiefs, discusses training room modalities. She explains that modalities are used to promote tissue or injury healing and create a conducive environment for healing. The core modality in their training room is exercise, as it stresses the tissue and helps with healing. Julie discusses various modalities they use, including soft tissue mobilization, trigger point dry needling, cups, wearable modalities for on-the-go treatment, compression therapies, and high-end modalities like diathermy, lasers, shockwaves, and PEMF. She emphasizes the importance of knowing the stages of healing when choosing a modality and using them in conjunction with exercise.
