Recovery after hard workouts, games, and other sporting events can make or break your next performance. Whether you’re a competitive athlete or someone committed to staying active, Cryomend offers an advanced recovery solution you need—Normatec compression therapy.
What is Normatec Compression Therapy?
Normatec is an air compression system designed to enhance circulation and recovery by applying controlled pressure to muscular areas like your legs and arms. This pressure mimics natural muscle contractions to help increase blood flow, remove lactic acid, and reduce delayed onset muscle soreness (DOMS).
At Cryomend, we use Normatec compression therapy for various clients from tennis players to health enthusiasts to individuals struggling with general soreness and stiffness.
How Normatec Compression Therapy Works
Normatec Compression Therapy uses specialized sleeves and boots that are placed on the targeted areas of the body, generally the arms, legs, or hips. These sleeves are connected to a device that delivers compressed air in a sequential pattern, starting from the furthest point and moving upward. The sequential movement is designed to replicate the natural muscle pump action, which helps to mobilize fluid, enhance blood flow, and aid in muscle recovery.
Sessions typically last 20-45 minutes. At Cryomend, we customize your session to ensure targeted compression is applied to the areas of concern.
Benefits of Normatec for Active Lifestyles
Faster Recovery for High-Performance Athletes
Normatec is great for reducing soreness and fatigue after intense training sessions, races, and other competitions. Whether you’re a tennis player, cyclist, runner, or basketball player, this means more time performing and less time sitting out with muscle strains.
Reduced Swelling and Joint Discomfort
Swelling and stiffness are common issues for athletes and non-athletes alike. We see clients that respond well to Normatec in addition to other therapies that help with swelling and joint recovery like cryotherapy and contrast therapy.
Improved Circulation and Flexibility
Normatec helps improve circulation, reducing fluid retention and enhancing blood flow. This leads to better flexibility and joint mobility, essential for individuals who rely on quick, dynamic movements in their sports and daily lives.
How to Incorporate Normatec Compression Therapy into Your Recovery Routine
Incorporating Normatec Compression Therapy into your recovery routine can be a game-changer for athletes and fitness enthusiasts.
Here are some tips to get you started:
Schedule Regular Sessions
Aim to use Normatec Compression Therapy 2-3 times a week.
Use It After Intense Physical Activity
Normatec Compression Therapy is most effective when used after intense physical activity, such as a hard workout or competition. This helps to reduce muscle soreness and speed up the recovery process.
Combine It With Other Recovery Techniques
Work in regular Normatec sessions with your existing recovery routine, like stretching, foam rolling, ice baths, and massages.
Adjust Your Sessions
Discuss any problem areas, such as sore legs or hips, with your coach or therapists to ensure your Normatec session is customized to your needs.
