The NormaTec Compression Recovery System works as an efficient pneumatic vaso-compressive device. The system uses compressed air to massage your limbs and mobilize fluid. You can use the NormaTec recovery boots both before and after working out to speed recovery by systematically and steadily pushing out the old blood, inflammation and lactic acid while providing you with a flushing massage.

NormaTec Compression Recovery System is helpful in ensuring quick and dynamic recovery, which in turn provides a competitive edge to all athletes of all levels.

How does the NormaTec Compression Recovery Work for Me?

The NormaTec recovery system uses three fundamental techniques to maximize your recovery:

#1: Pulsing

Rather than using static compression (or squeezing) for transporting fluid out of the limbs, Sequential Pulse Technology (SPT), a principle based on normal physiology, utilizes dynamic compression (pulsing). SPT synergistically combines three massage techniques to expedite your body’s normal recovery process. 

Note that the pulsing pattern is more effective than others as it mimics how the muscles pump in your arms and legs.  This greatly enhances the movement of fluid and metabolites out of your limbs after an intense or strenuous workout.

#2: Gradients

Did you know that lymphatic vessels and veins have one-way valves, which prevent fluid backflow? Similarly, NormaTec Pulse Technology uses hold pressure to keep fluids from being forced or pushed in the wrong direction. Due to this enhancement, the pulse delivers maximum pressure in all areas rather than tapering pressure off.

#3: Distal Release

You may know that extended static pressure can usually be detrimental to your body’s usual circulatory flow. This is why Sequential Pulse Technology releases the hold pressures when they are no longer needed to prevent backflow. 

If the hold pressure is released in each zone as early as possible, then each portion of your limb gains maximal resting time without a dramatic pause between several compression cycles.
