Normatec
Normatec is a clinically proven method for accelerating recovery and minimizing pain and soreness. Initially, the user will experience a pre-inflate cycle, during which the attachments will fill with air and conform to their exact body shape
The benefits of this recovery method, which are essentially the benefits of improved blood flow, include:
- Reducing swelling and inflammation
- Speeding up muscle recovery
- Preventing delayed-onset muscle soreness
- Relieving muscle pain
- Improving athletic performance
- Increasing flexibility and range of motion
- Removing exercise-related wastes, like lactic acid
- Decreasing muscle fatigue
How Can Normatec Help Me?
NormaTec stimulates blood flow, similar to a massage. Which expedites the recuperation process. Which includes reducing muscle soreness and increasing flexibility and blood flow. By using compression and stimulating the "happy" endorphins in the brain, pain can be reduced.
Who Does It Help?
- Patients who want a performance edge in their sport, whether it be running, cycling, cross-fit, golfing, etc
- For athletes who like to leave it on the gym floor and don’t want to neglect their body when they recover.
- For those, that push their body to the limit and need the next level of recovery to perform at their best.
- Those who have experienced an Immediate Injury
- If patients have had surgery then this is perfect for the patient as part of their post-operative care
It removes toxins and edema from soft tissue, the heart is able to pump in fresh blood and empty fluid, allowing the body to heal, reduce inflammation, and speed recovery time.
